Sometimes, a story can be told in just a few numbers. That is certainly true of the work our 5,600 m³ trailing suction hopper dredger Crestway has carried out in Mexico over the past year. In just 𝗼𝗻𝗲 year, our Crestway completed 𝘁𝘄𝗼 full-scale maintenance dredging campaigns in the port of Tuxpan. During the same period, we also worked in the ports of Tampico and Veracruz, bringing the total number of Mexican ports where our Crestway has made its mark to 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗲𝗲.
Through these maintenance campaigns, Boskalis is making a significant contribution to the accessibility of ports and the flow of container trade along Mexico’s eastern coast. At the same time, we have also deployed a second trailing suction hopper dredger to Mexico. The 12,000 m³ Gateway has recently been working on a capital dredging project on the west coast, following an emergency dredging campaign in Chiapas to help keep that port accessible to cargo vessels.
We thank the crews of the Crestway and the Gateway for their outstanding work in Mexico and thank ASIPONA for the excellent cooperation in Mexico.
