Royal IHC dredging course for Van Oord’s young officers

The last week of January, Royal IHC’s Training Institute hosted a group of young officers from Van Oord.

As part of their preparations, a short course about general dredging and Trailing Suction Hopper Dredgers was provided.

“In five days, the participants got to know some of their new colleagues, the TSHD’s components, working methods, loading & stability and more,” said Royal IHC.

According to the Dutch giant, the theory training helped to build a strong foundation of knowledge and provided them with the jargon and shared vocabulary used in the dredging industry.
