| 摘要： | Conrad Industries has launched the Galveston Island, the first of two hopper dredges the company is building for Great Lakes Dredge & Dock (GLDD) at its Amelia, La., shipyard. The 6,500-cubic-yard-capacity trailing suction hopper dredge is scheduled for delivery and operation in the first half of 2023. The keel was laid in April 2021. The Galveston Island will feature Tier 4-compliant main engines rated at a total horsepower of 16,500 and with the ability to run on bio-fuels. The dredge will feature two 31.5-inch suction pipes and will be able to dredge at depths up to 100 feet. The vessel measures 346 feet by 69 feet, with a depth of 23 feet. The dredge will have pump-ashore capabilities and will feature dredging system automation and dynamic positioning and tracking. The Galveston Island will offer crew members single-occupancy staterooms, a workout room and dedicated space for entertainment and training. Besides the vessel's Tier 4 engines that lower emissions, the Galveston Island is also designed to minimize turbidity and marine species entrainment. |
