Bakker Sliedrecht just signed the second major contract with IHC for oil-filled underwater motors this year. Bakker will deliver 3 high-performance motors, each weighing 60 tons, along with high-voltage cables for the motors.
We’ll also be supplying a Dredge Pump Monitoring & Control System (DPMCS) cabinet, ensuring seamless monitoring and control of the underwater motor and pump support systems for this project. This helps maximizing asset performance and efficiency. Our team will be on-site to connect and commission the motors for a 25,000 m³ hopper dredger currently under construction.
Bakker Sliedrecht is the only company in the world capable of delivering these Indar oil-filled motors at this power level. With over 45 years of experience and more than 150 oil-filled motors delivered, we have unmatched expertise in the field of underwater motor technology.
We’re excited to continue our successful partnership with IHC and look forward to seeing this impressive dredger in action!
