What is a Trailing Suction Hopper Dredger?

A Trailing Suction Hopper Dredger (TSHD) is a specialized vessel used to remove sand, silt and other seabed materials during dredging operations. The vessel uses suction pipes, also called drag arms, which are lowered to the seabed while the ship is sailing slowly.

The dredged material is pumped through the suction system and stored inside the vessel’s hopper hold. Once the hopper is full, the vessel transports the material to a disposal site or reclamation area where it is discharged.

Trailing suction hopper dredgers are widely used for:

• Port and harbor maintenance dredging

• Channel deepening projects

• Land reclamation works

• Coastal protection projects

• Beach nourishment operations

• Offshore infrastructure construction

These vessels are valued for their ability to operate continuously while sailing and efficiently transport dredged materials over long distances.
