Date: 13 February
Bakker Sliedrecht recently obtained the unique order for the delivery of the total electrical installation including the complete automation for a 32.000 m3 hopperdredger. The order is unique as it is for the first time in Bakker Sliedrecht's historythat an order of this size was obtained for a foreign yard and foreign dredging company.
The principal is Selat Melaka Shipbuilding from Malaysia, an emerging yard which already realized many project, however still has a lot of ambitious plans for the future.
The dredging company is Inai Kiara, founded in 1997 and nowadays for Malaysian concepts a large dredging company. Her fleet consists of a number of eight small and medium hopperdredger and 8 cutterdredgers and a number of 3 hopperdredgers, amongst which the INAI KENANGA, are under construction.
This order is a great challenge for Bakker Sliedrecht and at the same time a possibility to show their know-how and expertise. The challenge also exist in the fact that the yard has a very tight schedule and has already started the building of the hull.
All engineering and production activities are also included, but more over taking care of the integration of all electrical systems on board of the hopper.
Our activities will end with the commissioning and ready for use delivery of the electrical installation and belonging control systems.
