The launch ceremony of the first voyage of the SCO HID Shipyard's dredger to Africa.

The heavy-duty cutter suction dredger, meticulously built by SCO HID Shipyard, is about to embark on its first voyage in Africa.

Africa is a continent brimming with vitality and hope. The meandering rivers are its surging veins, and the vast coastline is its gateway to the world. However, the accumulation of silt sometimes restricts the flow of blood vessels and affects the smoothness of the doors and Windows. We are well aware that clear waterways are the channels for trade, the lifeblood of development, and the cornerstone of prosperity.

It is precisely with the mission of "unblocking the world's veins and opening up paths for development" that SCO HID Shipyard has brought our most proud cutter suction dredger here. This vessel not only embodies our most advanced shipbuilding technology and exquisite craftsmanship, but also carries our firm commitment to deepening China-Africa cooperation and supporting Africa's infrastructure construction.

Strong operational capabilities: Capable of easily handling complex channel dredging tasks, efficiently clearing siltation, and "relaxing and invigorating" ports and rivers.

Outstanding environmental protection design: Utilizing advanced environmental protection technologies, it minimizes the impact of operations on the Marine and river ecological environment, safeguarding the green mountains and clear waters of Africa.

Intelligent control system: It has achieved automated and intelligent control, ensuring high precision and high safety in operations.

Wish this dredger a smooth maiden voyage and brave the wind and waves! May the friendship between China and Africa last forever! Wish our cooperation a brilliant future together!
