* Very large dredging volumes, 22 million m3 in situ.

* Dredging at great depths, up to about 20 m.

* Subglacial deposits and large volumes of rocky moraine.

* Short seasons (approximately 7 months/year).

* Large volumes of rock that are to be blasted and reused partly as landfill material in port areas and time-dependent with the construction of docks.

 

Skandia Gateway:

* Very large dredging volumes, 13 million m3 in situ.

* Dredging at great depths, up to about 20.5 m.

* Large volumes of rock.

* Disposal site in a relatively exposed location.

The Swedish Maritime Administration’s most recent dredging was conducted from autumn 2020 to spring 2021, and the project involved dredging the fairway to Hargs Hamn in Uppland. The majority of the Swedish Maritime Administration’s forthcoming projects will involve the use of both environmental dredging buckets and trailing suction hopper dredgers. Photo: Agne Hörnestig

In November 2014, the Swedish Maritime Administration and the Port of Luleå arranged a consultation on the fairway project Malmporten. A supplementary consultation was held the following year and, in 2015, a project application was also sent to the Land and Environment Court for review. This picture of a trailing suction hopper dredger, see below, is taken from the supporting documents for the supplementary consultation.

The picture is taken from the 2015 information materials for the forthcoming fairway project in Luleå.

You are applying to participate in the market dialogue using the procurement tool www.tendsign.com where the invitation is published with the following title: “22-02375: A Large Number of Prospective Dredging Projects in Sweden – The Swedish Maritime Administration arranges a Market Dialogue”.

At the market dialogue, the Swedish Maritime Administration wants to meet contractors that have the machinery and experience required to accomplish dredging projects of the same size as our forthcoming projects. Consequently, to participate in the market dialogue, contractors must meet certain conditions. Read more about this in the invitation at www.tendsign.com.
