Eduard
The Eduard is a big and powerful carrier vessel for pile-driving and excavation/dredging work. It is mainly used in coastal areas and maritime waterways. For maneuvering and positioning, the pontoon has 4 hydraulic winches of 100 kN each and 2 anchor piles of 20, 30 or 50 m.
On one half of the deck, a stationary deck crane is provided for the transshipment of material or tools as well as for the warping of the anchor piles.
Half of the pontoon’s surface is covered by a raised wooden deck. This area is suited for the storage of material to be rammed or for the use of a mobile excavator/crane with a maximum dead weight of 140 tons.
For pile-driving work, the work pontoon Eduard is usually equipped with the cable-operated crawler crane Liebherr HS 883 HD. The boom has a length of 50 m and can be extended to 74 m. The additional ballast is 8.4 tons. The maximum load capacity with the shortest length of boom is 120 tons.
