Taiwanese dredging project awarded to Van Oord

Energy Disrupter

Van Oord has been contracted to dredge the water intake basin of the Taiwanese Da Tan power plant.

Cutter suction dredger HAM 218 and trailing suction hopper dredger HAM 318 will join forces on this project, which will kick off early 2021.

Driven by the growing demand for energy in Taiwan, the Da Tan power plant is currently being expanded by Hwa Chi Construction Co. Van Oord will deepen the existing water intake basin to increase its capacity to take in cooling water.

Van Oord’s scope will be completed by mid-2021.
