Femern A/S has just released this beautiful photo of Boskalis’ giant backhoe dredger Odin .

Odin arrived in Rødbyhavn at the end of May, tasked to conduct a very important job of removing the outer, temporary dike at the Fehmarnbelt Tunnel .

The temporary dike has until now shielded the construction site at the tunnel portal from the water.

“ But since the entrance to the tunnel portal is now under water and we have completed the 200-meter-wide permanent dike, the outer, temporary dike is no longer needed and can therefore be removed ,” said Femern .

Construction of the Tunnel began in 2020 on the Danish side and in 2021 on the German side.
