Vox Amalia for Van Oord
Bringing a next-generation dredger to life
Van Oord has a wealth of experience in the dredging industry, and also relies on C-Job for unbiased advice and expert support. We worked closely with Van Oord’s internal teams and external suppliers throughout the concept design phase for the Vox Amalia. We extensively tested design iterations and system configurations to ensure the vessel met all operational requirements and the challenges of modern dredging.
The advanced Vox Amalia is designed to perform a wide range of dredging tasks efficiently, thanks to its two suction drag arms, bottom doors, bow connection and two rainbow nozzles, which allow it to discharge dredged materials either through direct deposit or via rainbowing.
We were particularly involved in the main naval architecture of the vessel, where integration of dredging systems into the ship design was key, to ensure the Vox Amalia could perform efficiently in both deep and shallow waters, and provide versatility for a wide range of dredging projects. We meticulously balanced the vessel’s performance with cost-effectiveness, to create a dredger that would be a competitive force in the dredging industry.
