Unique vessel—only five others of this type exist in the world— will be powered by two Alco diesel engines with total output of 7,500 bhp. Split-Hull Hopper Dredge Launched At Avondale Yard Avondale Shipyards recently launched the Eagle I, one of the largest split-hull hopper dredges in the world, for Eagle Dredging Corporation of New Orleans. The unique vessel is being constructed at a cost of more than $30 mil- lion, according to J.W. Bean, pres- ident of Eagle Dredging. The Eagle I has an overall length of 340 feet, beam of 68 feet, and depth of 24 feet. Hop- per capacity is 6,300 cubic yards. A crew of 24 will operate the 7,500-bhp ship at a service speed of 14 knots. "Hopper dredges are designed specifically for operations at sea, and they are used primarily to maintain water depths at chan- nel entrances such as Southwest Pass at the mouth of the Missis- sippi River," Mr. Bean said. "This dredge will allow further partic- ipation in that portion of work presently handled primarily by the U.S. Army Corps of Engi- neers." Mr. Bean added that Eagle I will make a significant contribu- tion to private industry's capa- bility for construction of new deepwater ports. "Further," said Mr. Bean, "such a vessel will be able to help solve many of the present environmen- tal demands associated with in- land disposal areas, given the vessel's ability to load dredged material from inland and coastal waters and transport and dump these materials in acceptable off- shore disposal areas." A split-hull hopper dredge is a ship whose hull is divided and hinged at the deck so that it can open at the bottom to dump a load of dredged material. Only six split-hull hopper dredges exist in the world, according to Mr. Bean. Dredging is carried out in the closed position. Once over the site to be dredged, the vessel lowers two drag arms, one on each side, to the bottom of the body of wa- ter. These drag arms are pipes with specially designed heads that dig into the bottom material like bulldozer blades. The arms are dragged alongside the ship with the heads on the bottom, breaking up the material, loosening it, mixing it with wa- ter, and pumping it into the ves- sel's hopper for storage. The hop- per resembles the hold of a bulk carrier. Once full, the arms are lifted and the ship sails to the disposal site with its cargo of dredged ma- terial and water. When over the disposal area, two huge hydrau- lic cylinders force the ship open in less than two minutes, allow- ing the dredged material to drop into the sea. The ship then closes and returns to the dredging site to repeat the process. The Eagle I will be powered by two 3,750-bhp, 16-cylinder Alco diesel engines, and Propulsion Systems Inc. bow thrusters will enhance maneuverability. The ship was designed by Dredge Technology Corporation of New York, and will be commissioned in December this year. She will be classed by the American Bu- reau of Shipping, and meets all the latest rules of the U.S. Coast Guard and other regulatory bod- ies. Eagle Dredging is a U.S. com- pany formed as a joint venture by C.F. Bean Corporation, an inter- national dredging firm headquar- tered in New Orleans, and Royal Volker Stevin of the Netherlands, the world's largest dredging com- pany. 13
