Vaneta Marie

Outfitted with a total installed horsepower of 9,629hp and 6,830kW of electrical power, the dredge is equipped with a detachable carriage barge and lay-down spuds, allowing it to make wide cuts when needed and to clear low structures in transit.

The technology and equipment onboard the dredge is all state-of-the-art, with redundancies built-in throughout for safety and production, said Muddy Water Dredging.

With an overall length of 376 feet, the Vaneta Marie is one of the largest 24-inch cutter suction dredges in the U.S.-flag Jones Act fleet.
