Built to the requirements of classification society, Bureau Veritas, Sanderus is diesel-electric driven
and is able to dredge to a maximum depth of 35m.
Keppel O&M is also currently building Ortelius,
a 6000m3 dredger which is identical to the Sanderus, for Jan De Nul Group,
with delivery expected in 1Q 2020.
Jan De Nul Group recently decided to name both 6,000 m³ Trailing Suction Hopper
Dredgers after two decommissioned vessels of the Groups fleet: Sanderus and Ortelius.
Robby De Backer, Director of Newbuilding Department of Jan De Nul Group,
said,"Like all our new dredgers, Sanderus is equipped with a state-of-the-art exhaust gas
treatment system that extracts up to 99% of the nanoparticles from exhaust gases.
