Its capabilities allows for subsea excavation, transport and disposal of any sediment and gravel.
The new and enhanced XL and XXL dredgers provides significantly increased suction rate and unrestricted diameter up to 16". The GTO Subsea Dredge can be delivered in standard dimensions 8", 10", 12", 14" and 16". It provides the possibility to transport sediments several hundred meters and to dredge large areas.
The GTO Subsea Dredge can also be customized for dredging of rocks up to 30".
Water jetting nozzles can be installed on the suction head, providing capacity of breaking up very hard sediments. In order to avoid the risk for damages on the ROV manipulator and to optimize handling of suction head, the robust purpose made GTO Dredging Arm may be applied.
