CELEBRATING 40 YEARS OF WATER INJECTION DREDGING

Water Injection Dredging (WID) has been successfully applied in ports and waterways for more than 40 years. Since then, hundreds of projects in dozens of countries all over the world have been executed using this technique. WID is primarily used for maintenance dredging in ports and waterways, particularly in areas where river and tidal currents can transport the dredged sediment naturally. Because WID does not require physical contact with the seabed, it can also be used to clean underwater structures, such as locks and rock revetments, as well as for pre- and post-trenching of cables and pipelines.
