The customer purchased the dredger for Davao port desilting and expansion of his own container terminal and has plans to further develop the local desilting market.
As sufficient port capacity is vital for economic growth, the maintenance of ports and their approaches must provide a constant navigable water depth. The annual maintenance dredging work at davao ports in Philippines requires the dredger with a flow capacity 3500m3/h-4000m3/h and target depth at -14m.
In Philippines, there are major developments in the infrastructure of all large ports and harbours. With the development of new ports and terminals and the deepening of existing ones, this dredger will be an important contribution.
