Small floating dredge9/24/2023 The mooring winches are electrical frequency controlled winches with a built in load sensing. Two deck winches are synchronized to have a lateral movement control and two deck winches are synchronized for lateral movement control of the vessel or pontoon. The coordinates are shown in the DGPS software. The 4 point mooring system consist of four anchors which are connected to special designed constant tension control winches. The PLC software receives GPS information through DGPS survey software. The multibeam echosounder includes a data acquisition and navigation software for real time dredging monitoring and post processing dredging results. The multibeam echosounder is based on a 120 degrees swath beam with and update rate of 12Hz and a 0,02% slant range accuracy. Seascape developed a PLC software positioning system to position a vessel or pontoon with a 4 point mooring system in combination with a multibeam echosounder system to monitor the pre-, actual and post dredging slope. of sand and dumping it 100-150 m through a floating line from the vessel. The system is cable of dredging 230-250 m 3/hr. The soil was medium compact fine sand with some clay layers. During actual dredging commissioning the system was able to dredge a trench of 2 m deep and 8 m wide in one pass. The first designs was considered to be able to dredge in one movement approximately 0,5 m deep and 6 m wide. Design 2 is as frame with 5×700 m 3/hr pumps with 4x350m 3/hr jets. The frame is build up with suction and jetting nozzles with pumps and the necessary tubing and hydraulics.ĭesign 1 is as frame with 5×350 m 3/hr pumps with 2x350m 3/hr jets. The dredging equipment consist of a dredge frame, an A-frame floating pipelines and possible with a hose guiding system. The dredge frame has a small electronics epod for the roll & pitch and depth sensor. The TDS can be applied on any floating object such as a pontoon or a vessel. It’s completely bridge operated and consists of dredging equipment and a controlling system. The TDS is special designed for shallow water trenching. The Trench Dredging System is developed, built and commissioned by Seascape.
