Baniyas Bay

Cutter Suction Dredger Baniyas Bay is a Beaver 3800 type dredger, built by IHC Holland in 2006. In 2012 Gulf Cobla added this dredger to its fleet of cutter suction dredgers after fitting her with all modern, high-precision control equipment.

This multi-purpose dredger has been manufactured to operate in coastal as well as shallow waters, and is fitted with a 785 hp hydraulic cutter drive designed for optimum production in a sandy environment, while also being able to dredge various types of rock and sand.

With her 650 mm discharge pipe, the Baniyas Bay combines the advantages of a compact dredger and easy manoeuvrability with high production outputs. Operated by Gulf Cobla's experienced crew, she is very suitable for capital dredging as well as precision and controlled dredging activities. Because she was built by a well-known Dutch dredging shipyard, wear parts and spare parts are widely available.
