TSHD systems

DE Klop / Hollandsche Yssel trailing suction hopper dredging installations are renowned for their robust construction, reliable operation, and excellent performance. Over the years, DE Klop / Hollandsche Yssel has delivered a wide variety of complete trailing suction hopper dredging installations.

With extensive in-house expertise in dredging equipment design, DE Klop ensures top-notch quality and innovation in their products. Many shipyards worldwide are capable of constructing the hull and propulsion of a trailing suction hopper dredger (TSHD). In close consultation with DE Klop / Hollandsche Yssel’s highly experienced engineering department, the hull design is tailored for the integration of the DHY trailing suction hopper dredging installation. This includes essential components such as the dredge pump, the complete suction pipe installation with drag head, overflow installations, and discharge systems including shore connections. This collaboration enables the construction of trailing suction hopper dredgers anywhere in the world.

Remarkably, it is also possible—and has been successfully done several times—to convert an existing seagoing cargo vessel into a trailing suction hopper dredger. This approach offers a highly cost-effective solution for building a TSHD. The significant advantage over purchasing a second-hand TSHD is that the dredging equipment is brand new, requires minimal maintenance, delivers high performance, and embodies the reliability of DE Klop / Hollandsche Yssel installations.

In addition to delivering suction pipe installations, DE Klop also provides support in construction supervision and training, ensuring comprehensive assistance throughout your project.
