Dredger Omvac Diez arrives at Port of Cabedelo

The dredging vessel Omvac Diez, the second dredger set to undertake the dredging works at the Port of Cabedelo, Brazil, is about to begin its task.

According to local media, the vessel is now in Recife and should arrive in Cabedelo – to join the dredger Kenford (already working in the area) – in the following hours.

The dredging operations – started on October 15 with the first dredger – represent the Government of Paraíba’s investment in the port development activities through the contracts signed in March by Governor João Azevedo.

The Omvac Diez dredger – manufactured in 2011 – is about 70 meters long and sails under the Spanish flag.
