Definition of shallow water operation of trailing suction ship

Shallow water operation with trailing suction boat is a common way of earthwork operation on water.

The harrow suction ship is usually composed of harrow, garbage compressor, mud pump and other mechanical equipment. They are usually suitable for rivers, lakes, ports and other places in low water depth areas. Their main features are underwater exploration, silt dredging and earthwork operations by using harrows and dredgers on board.

The advantages of towing and suction boat shallow water operation are deep operation depth and outstanding instantaneous dredging effect, which greatly improves the operation efficiency.
