On the Atlantic Coast, DEME Group is preparing the Port Atlantique La Rochelle for the future.
“Through means of no less than 3 different types of dredgers, we are deepening the current Port zones, but also several berthing pockets for yet-to-be-built quays,” said Jonas Ryvers , project engineer at DEME Group.
“The dredged material is mostly pumped towards a vast reclamation area, where we’re turning a fallow swamp area into a 6 hectare marshaling platform.”
All of this is set to serve the booming offshore wind industry in France.
