With over a century of experience in the maritime industry, Boskalis regularly calls at certain ports. This may be to load or discharge cargo, or to carry out dredging operations as part of an expansion or maintenance project. One of the ports where we have made a significant impact over the past few decades is Barrow in the United Kingdom.
For more than 20 years, Boskalis has been carrying out a range of projects there through Boskalis Westminster. This year, our trailing suction hopper dredger Freeway completed several short dredging campaigns in Barrow, removing a total of more than 1 million cubic meters of sediment from the port area. A great result that helps keep the port accessible to visiting vessels.
