Global Dredging Scenario

Global Dredging market is estimated to be ~USD 11 Bn 13 Bn. (Source: Ernst and Young Report).
Around 67% of global dredging market consists of capital dredging, whereas the balance 33%
consists of maintenance dredging. Over the next few years, the Dredging market is expected to
grow @ 6%-7% per annum. Approximately half of the global dredging market (~USD 6 Bn) is
generated in open markets
International dredging market is traditionally dominated by large European dredging companies like
Boskalis Westminster, Van Oord ACZ, Jan de Nul and DEME (Dredging Environmental and Marine
Engineering). These 4 companies account for ~60% of the dredging in the open market. Other key
global players include Penta Ocean from Japan, Hyundai and Samsung from South Korea and Great
Lakes from US. Following is the breakup in terms of global dredging market share in the open
market:

Currently, the total value of planned projects globally is ~USD 91 Bn (Source: SNS Securities).
Approximately 20% of these projects involve dredging (~USD 18 Bn), which is expected to be
completed within 4 years. Following is the region wise breakup of the dredging expected in the next
5 years:

America

Of the total order value, ~75% is expected to come from Middle East (52%) and Asia (23%).
Asia, the 2nd largest market, accounts for ~23% of total value of planned projects globally. It is
expected that current fleet capacity may not be enough to meet the soaring dredging demand.

Indian Dredging Scenario

As economic growth boosts Indian trade, the countrys ports are keen to attract bigger, aminline
vessels. However, bigger ships with high capacity have difficulty calling directly due to lack of
adequate draft or depth at the berths and channels of Indian ports. Following is the entrance
channel details of major ports:

With the exception of ports such as Chennai, Mundra and Ennore, Indian ports have an average
draft ranging from 8 m to 12 m. In comparison, the draft available at international ports ranges
from 12m to 23m, which enables them to handle high capacity ships. Singapore port, situated along
the worlds busiest maritime route, is considered as the hub port in Asia, and has a depth of 16m.
Future growth of the Indian port sector will have to be driven by new capacity creation and/or

alteration of existing configuration of ports. Apart from the dredging requirements of major and
minor ports, requirements also exist for beach nourishment, shore protection, land reclamation,
inland waterways transport, etc.
Estimated size of Indian dredging industry is ~ USD 200 Mn. Total dredging carried out in the Xth
five year plan was ~ 328.9 Mn cubic meters, of which maintenance dredging constituted 75% (~
246.6 Mn cu.m.). During the IXth five year plan, dredging to the tune of 283.5 Mn cu.m was carried
out, of which 88% was constituted of maintenance dredging.
Annual capital dredging carried out during the last 2 plan periods have been far lower than planned,
mainly due to delays in initiation and progress of infrastructure projects. However, with the
increased focus on infrastructure by the government, the same is expected to be rectified.
Out of the total maintenance dredging carried out in the Xth five year plan, ~95% was carried out in
Major ports. However, with several new capital dredging projects being undertaken in the Minor
ports, the maintenance dredging requirements at Minor ports are expected to rise. Following is the
port-wise breakup of maintenance dredging carried out in major ports in the Xth five year plan:

Minor ports accounted for 81% of total capital dredging carried out during the XIth five year plan.
This was largely driven by capital dredging of 66.2 Mn cu.m.undertaken by private ports in Gujarat.

Under the National Maritime Development Programme (NMDP), several large capital dredging
projects have been lined up for Major ports. Around Rs. 63 Bn is expected to be spent on deepening
of channel works at major ports upto FY14. Following is the port-wise planned costs under NMDP:

XIth five year plan envisages capital dredging of ~298.2 Mn CuM by Major Ports and ~359.5 CuM by
State Ports. Maintenance dredging of ~380 Mn CuM is projected for major ports and ~31.5 Mn CuM
for State ports. Dredging Corporation of India (DCI) is the largest Indian player in the dredging
market. DCI is a public sector undertaking under the Ministry of Shipping, Road Transport and
Highways. Maintenance dredging forms 90% of total revenues of DCI. In 2004-05, DCIs market
share was ~64% of total major port dredging market in India. DCI owns 10 Trailer suction hopper

dredgers (TSHD) used mainly for maintenance dredging and 2 Cutter Suction Dredgers (CSD) for
capital dredging. Other key players in the Indian market are Jaisu Shipping, Dharti Dredging and
Construction, SICAL Logistics, Marg Construction, etc. Cumulative capacities of DCI, ports
dredgers and key private players are as follows:
15 Mn CuM of Cutter Suction Dredgers
131 Mn CuM of Trailer Suction Hopper Dredgers
It is expected that even under the scenario wherein DCI would increase its capacity as per plan by
adding 4 TSHD over the XIth five year plan, the overall supply demand gap would remain. There
would still be a requirement for capacity addition of ~302 Mn CuM

Following are the key growth drivers for demand of dredging services in India:

Expected Growth in Port traffic

Traffic handled at ports has been growing steadily at an average rate of ~9% over the past

decade
GOI has an ambitious target of ~USD 350 Bn for exports in 2015-16, likely to lead to
further port traffic growth

Technological changes
Greater deployment of large sized and faster vessels, requiring deeper drafts
Entry of Private Players
Privatization being utilized as a tool by the government to expand existing port

infrastructure
With growth in private investment in the ports sector, dredging demand will rise with
greater emphasis on development of ports

Government initiatives
Spending of Rs. 63 Bn envisaged as Channel deepening under the NMDP
Liberalization and opening up of dredging market to international players

Our Ambition & Plans

Sea Eagle Dredging Marine Infrastructure Private Limited will be able to organize required number
trailer suction hopper dredging vessels and cutter suction dredger on charter or on purchase from
world market details of which can be shown at latter stage of Detail Project Report ( DPR ) once
the concept note will finalized . These are essentially hydraulic dredgers, which have the
following advantages over mechanical dredgers:

Unlike mechanical dredgers, hydraulic dredgers not only dig the material but also dispose it
off either by pumping the material through a floating pipeline to a dumping/reclamation
area or by storing it in hoppers and subsequently disposing it off.

Hydraulic dredgers are more efficient, versatile and economical to operate because of the
continuous self contained digging and disposal principle of operation

Trailer Suction Hopper Dredgers are self propelled ships that fill its hold or hopper during dredging,
while following a pre-set track. The hopper can be emptied by bottom doors or valves (dumping) or
by pumping its load ashore. This kind of dredger is mainly used in open water
viz. rivers, canals, estuaries and the open sea.
Trailing suction hopper dredgers, commonly known simply as hoppers or trailers, have a hull in
the shape of a conventional ship, and are both highly seaworthy and able to operate without any
form of mooring or spud. They are equipped with either single or twin (one on each side) trailing
suction pipes. Material is lifted through the trailing pipes by one or more pumps and discharged
into a hopper contained within the hull of the dredger. The measure of size of a hopper or trailer
dredger is the hopper capacity. This may range from a few hundred cubic metres to over 20000 cu
m. Increasingly larger vessels have been constructed in recent years to allow economic transport
of the dredged material, especially for reclamation projects.
The suction pipe terminates in a drag head, which may be of the plain type or may incorporate a
water jet system, blades or teeth, or other means of dislodging compacted material. The function of
the drag head is to allow the material to flow to the suction inlet as efficiently as possible.
A trailing suction hopper dredger operates very much like a floating vacuum cleaner. It sails slowly
over the area to be dredged filling its hopper as it proceeds. On completion of loading the dredger
sails to the disposal site where the cargo can be discharged, either by opening the doors or valves in
the hopper bottom, by using the dredging pump to deliver to a shore pipeline, or directly to shore
by using a special bow jet. This last technique is known as rainbowing and is commonly used for
reclamation and beach nourishment.
Some trailer dredgers split over their entire length to achieve a rapid discharge of material which
may be difficult to discharge through doors. Such special vessels are understandably more
expensive to build than those with a rigid hull.

Trailing suction hopper dredgers operate best by skimming off layers of material in long runs, such
as might be found in channel dredging. They are unable to get into corners and may be difficult to
maneuver in confined spaces close to quays and jetties. They are not very effective on hard
materials such as the stiffer clays, but can dredge rock which has been blasted, or loosened by a
cutter dredger. These dredgers are very efficient for the materials they can handle effectively. Most
harbour maintenance dredging today is carried out by trailers, and they are also employed for
capital projects, pipe trenching and reclamation.
Key Revenue Drivers
The revenues derived from a dredging operation is a direct function of the following:

Dredged quantity (in cubic meter)

Price per cubic meter of dredged quantity

Dredged quantity, in turn, is dependent on the following:

Capacity of the dredger in terms of cubic meters/hour Higher the capacity of the dredger,
more the quantity dredged and vice-versa

Number of round trips per day This depends upon the distance of the dredging location
from the dumping yard. Longer the distance to be traveled, lesser is the time available for
dredging and lower is the dredged quantity.

Capacity utilization of the dredger in terms of availability - This depends upon the need for
maintenance, and for the dredgers to come to the shore for fuelling, stocking of foodstuff
and other provision for the crew.

Price per cubic meter of quantity dredged would be determined for each individual port
based on competitive bids. However, the bid numbers would be a function of the quality of
material to be dredged (fine sand/ clay/ rocks) and the distance of dredging location from
dumping site.

Operating expenses model

Key expenditure
The key operating expenses incurred by any company engaged in the business of dredging is as
under:
Charter hire charges: This is in case the dredgers are not owned but chartered from the others for
the long durations .

Fuel (Diesel) consumption charges: This is a function of consumption of diesel per trip and
the cost of diesel. Consumption of diesel would depend upon the dredger configuration,
and would be higher for larger capacity dredgers.

Manpower charges: Dredger Master, Engineers and supporting crew are required to man
the dredgers. In the case of chartered dredgers, the charter hire charges would include the
cost of dredger master and engineers on board the dredger.

Hydraulics Hire charges

Repairs & Maintenance: Repairs and maintenance is the responsibility of the entity that
owns the dredger. In the case of chartered dredgers, the repairs and maintenance expense
is included in the charter hire charges. Generally, R & M is approximately 2% of the Project
cost of the dredger,

Deck & Engine stores: Expense on Deck & Engine Stores is assumed to be 1% of dredge
revenues, in line with industry standards.

Administrative and Selling expenses: This includes the costs of office administration and
Business Development, and is assumed to be 2 % of the dredge revenues.

Strength of SEDMIPL

WHAT IS DREDGING ?
Dredging is an excavation activity or operation usually carried
out at least partly underwater, in shallow seas or fresh
water areas with the purpose of gathering up
bottom sediments and disposing of them at a different
location. This technique is often used to keep waterways
navigable.
A dredger is any device, machine, or vessel that is used to
excavate and remove material from the bottom of a body of
water.

Why Dredge?
We live on a dynamic and constantly changing planet. Left
to nature, rivers flood and change course, lakes fill in, and
coastlines change. We humans, however, want our lakes,
rivers and beaches to stay put so that we can enjoy the
aesthetic, recreational, and economic benefits that they
provide.
By the responsible use of dredging, we can prolong the life
of lakes, make rivers behave, and replace eroded
beaches. We can restore, improve or even create new
habitats for marine and coastal animals and plants. We can
improve natural harbors, or create harbors where none
existed before. By extending and improving existing
waterways, we can extend the benefits of waterborne
commerce far inland. We use dredgers to prepare the
underwater terrain for civil works such as dams, and
bridges, and to create spillways, levies and other marine
works. Dredging also provides us with an economical
source of sand and gravels for use as aggregates in cement
and for use as road bedding. Since most of the visible
evidence of dredging is submerged underwater, it is easy to
overlook the critical role that dredging plays in our daily
lives; but without dredging it would be impossible to
maintain our modern way of life.

Types of Dredgers
There is a very large variety of machines and vessels that
are designed for underwater excavation, but all dredgers
can be classified into Two main categories:
1. Mechanical dredgers, and
2. Hydraulic dredgers

Mechanical, and hydraulic

dredgers are characterized by
the method that is used to
excavate the material from
the bottom of the body of
water.
Hopper and hold
dredgers can use either
mechanical
or
hydraulic
means to excavate the
material
and
are
characterized by their ability
to store the dredged material
onboard for transportation

How Does Dredging Work?

Dredging process can be broken down into four steps :

Dislodging The Dredged Material From The Bottom

Before material to be dredged can be transported to the surface, it must
be dislodged from the bottom. Depending on the job parameters and
the type of material to be dredged, the method of dislodging the
material varies. In the case of hydraulic dredging, the material at least
requires agitation, if not excavation, to detach it from the bottom so
that it can be drawn into the suction mouth. Mechanical dredgers use
an excavating implement to scoop the material up. In the case of solid
rock, it is common to first use explosives or vibratory hammers to
fracture the rock preparatory to dredging, but some large dredgers have
the capability of excavating the rock directly. The system used for
dislodging the material from the bottom is usually integral to the design,
and dictated by the purpose of the dredge.

Transporting The Material From The Bottom To The Surface

Once the sediment has been separated from the bottom, it starts its
journey to the surface of the water.
The two methods of transporting sediment are:
Sucking the material through a pipe in the form of a water/material
slurry and Physically hauling the dredged material to the surface using a
bucket or other mechanical device.
Transporting The Material To A Disposal Site
Once the material reaches the surface, sediments are sometimes moved
directly from the dredger to a disposal site by pumping them through a
pipeline in the form of a slurry. Alternatively, sediments can be brought
onboard a dredger or barge, contained, and then shipped to a disposal
site. The cost of sediment transport and subsequent disposal can
represent a high proportion of the overall dredging operation.
Most dredged material (often referred to as dredge spoil) is
transported to a designated site and dumped as a byproduct.
In many cases sediments can be recycled for beach nourishment, land
creation, or construction uses. In fact, sometimes the utilization of the
dredge spoil for a commercial or environmental purpose is the principal
objective of the dredging project.

Plain suction dredgers are

useful only when the
material to be dredged is
very loose, such as fine sand
or silt. This type of hydraulic
dredger uses only suction to
draw up the material,
somewhat like the hose
attachment of a household
vacuum cleaner.

Jet Suction Dredgers are

similar to plain suction
dredgers in the sense that
they
are
hydraulic
dredgers that do not use a
mechanical implement to
dislodge
the
material.
Instead, high
pressure
water
jets
directed into the material
in way of the suction to
help to dislodge the
material and put it in
suspension so that it can
be captured by the suction
stream.

Cutter Suction Dredgers are

hydraulic
dredgers
that
incorporate a rotating cutter at
the end of the suction line. This
implement is shaped sort of like
a basket, and has several blades
that rotate around its axis. As
the blades contact the bottom,
each blade scoops out a section
of material, which is caught up
in the stream of water that is
being sucked up by the dredge
pump.

Bucket Wheel Dredgers are a

variation of cutter suction
dredgers, except that the
basket cutter is replaced
with a narrow rotating drum
with toothed buckets around
the periphery.
As each
bucket takes a cut, the
material is sucked into the
drum and up the ladder.

Horizontal
cutter
dredgers
are
hydraulic
dredgers that use an auger
that is covered by a shroud
to convey the material being
dredged to the suction
mouth. The cutter actually
consists of two counterbiased augers rotating on a
single shaft that crowd the
material towards the suction
mouth.

Trailer dredgers are a type of

hydraulic dredger that uses a wide
flattened suction mouth that has a
multitude of high pressure water
jets attached to the bottom lip. As
the cutter is pushed or pulled
along the bottom, the water jets
are directed into the material to
be dredged, and the force of the
water stream dislodges and
suspends the material so that it
can be captured by the suction
stream of the dredge pump.

Excavator
Back
hoe
dredgers are a type of
mechanical dredger that
uses a tooth-edged bucket
attached to an articulated
arm that is used to scoop up
the material and elevate it
to the surface.
Some
excavator dredgers can exert
very high cutting force to
the material being dredged;
the larger dredgers are even
capable
of
excavating
unfractured rock.
Dragline dredgers are
mechanical dredgers that
use a tooth-edged bucket
shaped like a rectangular
box with the top and one
end open. The bucket is
lowered to the bottom and
dragged across the bottom
with the drag rope. The
crane
then
typically
performs a swing operation
to position the bucket over
the place where the
material is to be deposited.

Clamshell dredgers are a type

of mechanical dredger that
uses
a
bivalve
grab
suspended from a crane that
can be opened or closed by
means of a cable or by
hydraulic cylinders. The grab
is lowered to the bottom in
its opened position and then
closed, essentially taking a
bite out of the bottom. The
grab is then hauled to the
surface and a swing operation
is typically performed to
position the grab over the
place where the material is to
be dumped.
Bucket Ladder Dredgers use
a series of buckets attached
to a transmission chain, the
chain riding on a boom or
ladder that can be
lowered
to
the
bottom. Each bucket takes
a scoop out of the bottom
and is hauled up the ladder
by
the
transmission
chain. When the buckets
reach the top of the ladder
they invert, dumping their
cargo onto a conveyor.

Dredging Applications
Dredging can be divided into five major general categories:
Capital Dredging, Maintenance Dredging, Dredging for Civil Works and
Energy, Mining, and Environmental Dredging
Capital Dredging
Capital dredging is a dredging project in which the purpose of the
project is to substantially change the underwater or shoreline terrain for
a commercial purpose.
Capital dredging provides new or improved waterways for navigation,
harbors for berthing of ships or boats, and canals for water
management, and flood control. By dredging, rivers are deepened and
widened so that waterborne traffic can extend far into the interior of
the land, and completely new waterways are created.
The material that is dredged up is not always simply disposed of, but is
often used for some beneficial use. Dredged material has also been used
to create land for recreation, farming, industrial use, civil projects, and
even forestry.

Maintenance Dredging
Maintenance dredging is a dredging project that does not substantially
alter the underwater or shoreline terrain, but maintains a body of water
in a certain desired condition.
It is entirely natural for river beds fill in, causing rivers to overflow their
banks in search of a new channel. Left to nature, most rivers change
course from time to time.
Rivers carry:
Natural minerals (from erosion), Seabed materials (swept up into the
lower courses via tidal action),
and organic matter (from decaying plant and animal material)
Together these suspended particles are referred to as sediment. Where
the river flows quickly, the particles remain suspended, but in places
where the river slows down, the sediment precipitates out of the water
and falls to the bottom, filling in the channel, and causing the river to
jump its banks in search of a new channel. Rivers also deposit sediment
into the bodies of water they empty into, such as ports, bays, lakes, or
oceans.
The life span of reservoirs is limited, because the water from the river
that feeds them slows down at the reservoir, allowing the river
sediments to precipitate out into the reservoir. This causes the reservoir
to gradually fill in, reducing the amount of water it can hold for
producing hydroelectric power or for irrigation, until finally the dam has
to be abandoned. Dredging can remove the accumulated sediments
and, to a certain extent, restore the volumetric capacity of the
reservoir.

Civil Works, Leisure, and Energy Projects

Dredging is essential to many civil works, engineering, and energy
projects that are vital to our cities infrastructures. Dredging is needed
to excavate land for breakwaters, dams, bridges, piers, docks, dikes, and
wharves. The process for these underwater engineering projects is
similar to their land counterparts. For example underwater trenches
are created and filled to receive pipelines, power cables or
communications cables and sea beds are prepared for foundations to
support bridges or dams.
The idea that dredging can be used to increase tourism is not
new. recreation on dredged material containment sites is one of the
most common land uses of dredged material sites, in actual acres. The
land created by fine-grained dredged material is especially suited to the
lightweight park structures.
In the offshore oil industry, dredgers dig trenches for pipelines, prepare
the seabed, and protect the pipelines by backfilling with gravel, sand,
and rock. Modern dredging has allowed us to drill deeper and in harsher
conditions than ever before, which has greatly benefited the energy
industry:

Mining
In mining dredging, the sediment itself is the desired
commercial product. Dredging provides a large part of the sand
and gravel that is used as aggregate for cement, or for road
bedding and other construction uses. Minerals such as gold and
precious gems are also mined by dredging. Mineral mining
dredgers are typically highly specialized, customized, and owned
by the mining company themselves.
Gold, useful minerals, and precious materials.
In ocean
mining, the dredger excavates the material, sorts and collects it,
and disposes of any undesired sediments. Dredgers have been
used to remove a long list of useful materials from the ocean
floor:
tin ore , coal, gold, platinum, silica, titanium, barite, phosphates,
rare earth metals, metaliferous oxides and sulfides, aragonite

Environmental
Environmental dredging can be used to correct an adverse
environmental impact, or it can create new environments and habitats
where none existed before.
Anti-eutrophication or removal of sediments that have choked off
oxygen supply to water bodies and stunted wildlife proliferation can also
be a natural byproduct of dredging in a body of water.
Removing contaminated sediment. In areas of heavy industrial activity,
contaminated sediments often accumulate in harbors, rivers, and coastal
areas. Dredgers can remove these sediments and reclaim the area for
the environment, tourism, or clean human habitation.
Strip Mine Reclamation, Solid Waste Management, and Waste
Removal. Dredgers are employed to cover landfills, refill old mining
sites, and physically remove trash or debris from the bottom of rivers,
canals, and harbors.
Reestablishment of Water Flow. Dredging can renew needed fresh
water flow in rivers that have been clogged by sediment. Dredging can
remove the contaminated soil, which reestablishes the fish population,
decreasing health risks, and enabling boating commerce to resume.
Beach Nourishment. The creation of seawalls and other beach front
construction has altered wave patterns along many of the worlds most
visited shorelines. When a wave hits a structure, such as a seawall, the
water is violently forced back out to sea, causing increased turbulence
and increased erosion in the near shore zone. One solution is to use
dredged material to create sand bars (or sand berms) several hundred
yards offshore and parallel to the coastline.
