It is the first self-propelled trailing suction hopper dredger in China to utilize a distributed cabin pump design, making it ideal for deep-sea sand extraction, dredging in coastal deep-water port channels, land reclamation, and coastal maintenance projects.
Equipped with a new generation of intelligent monitoring and management platform independently developed in China, the vessel achieves smart monitoring and comprehensive management, with its intelligent functions meeting world-class standards.
Upon completion, it will facilitate efficient construction in large-scale integrated “dig, dump, and land reclamation” infrastructure projects.
