Wasa backhoes busy in Klaipeda

Wasa Dredging today released this beautiful photo from the Klaipeda Port dredging project.

The main contractor for this capital dredging program is the Danish dredging company Rohde Nielsen A/S

Wasa’s scope of work includes removal of 1 million cubic metres of clay, silt and sand.

The dredged material is being dumped at an offshore location – around 23 km from the dredging areas.

At the moment, two Wasa’s backhoe dredgers are on the spot: “Optimus” with a 18m³ bucket and “Hector” with a 12m³ bucket.

Wasa will complete their job in this area in July.
