Boskalis acquires contract of € 80 million

摘要

In Incheon, South Korea, the Dutch dredging company Royal Boskalis Westminster N.V. will dredge and reclaim new land for Songdo International City, on behalf of construction company Daewoo E&C. The land will be used for residential and commercial developments in Songdo, Incheon. The total value of the contract amounts to approximately € 80 million. Boskalis will achieve the reclamation trough the hydraulic fill of around 23 million cubic metres of sand, which will be extracted from the navigation channels of the already existing and the new port of Incheon. A jumbo trailing suction hopper dredger will shortly be leaving for South Korea to undertake the works, which are scheduled to be completed late 2014.
