"The Swalinge"
The Swalinge was built as a coaster in 1977 and rebuilt into a trailing-suction hopper dredger after being purchased by Den Herder Seaworks in 1996.
The dry unloading installation was designed and built to our own specifications.
The average unloading time of the vessel takes 1.5 hours.
The hopper of the Swalinge is fitted with bottom doors so she can dump her cargo and she is also capable to use a shore delivery installation for pumping the cargo ashore.
The high deployability and reliability of the ships of Den Herder Seaworks BV are the strength of the company and are partly enhanced by the knowledge, skills and training of the personnel, short lines, the high standard of maintenance and the involvement and decision-making of the crew. owners within the company.
