Time for the next Portsmouth dredging campaign

Boskalis Westminster Ltd will next week begin surveying operations and maintenance dredging works at the Portsmouth Harbour.

According to the KHM Portsmouth, the areas primarily to be focused on during this campaign include the harbour itself and its approach channels.

The contractor for the works will be using the plough vessel “OBERVARGH” (LOA 15.3m), the Trailing Suction Hopper Dredger (TSHD) “SOSPAN DAU’’ (LOA 72.8m) or “CAUSEWAY” (LOA 97.7m) and the survey launch “ARAMIS” (LOA 11.4m) which will carry out all necessary survey operations.

This surveying and maintenance dredging project is expected to take place between 13 November – 2 December 2024.
