The Royal IHC officially handed over the MOHAB MAMEESH cutter suction dredger to the Suez Canal Authority (SCA) on Thursday. With the delivery of the 29,190kW heavy-duty rock CSD, SCA now owns one of the most powerful dredgers in the world, the statement added. The MOHAB MAMEESH will primarily be deployed to maintain and improve the artificial sea-level area that connects the Mediterranean and Red seas. “We were confident from the start of the project that Royal IHC was the right partner for this important assignment,” says SCA’s Chairman and Managing Director, Admiral Osama Rabie. We would like to wish the owners and crew of the Mohab Mameesh good fortune and smooth sailing,” Eggink added.
