IADC: New Terra et Aqua Available

International Association of Dredging Companies (IADC) has just published the latest issue of Terra et Aqua, the official quarterly publication of IADC.

The magazine is supported solely by the IADC as a service to the world-wide dredging community and represents IADC’s commitment to the highest standards of professional conduct.

Articles in this Terra et Aqua:

– SMART, SUSTAINABLE: A LIFE CYCLE APPROACH TO FUEL ECONOMY AS APPLIED TO DREDGING VESSELS

No time to wait for policymakers. Dredging contractors need to act now and consider energy efficiency from beginning to end: from ship design to operations to decommissioning.

– EuDA INFORMATION PAPER: REDUCTION OF SOX EMISSIONS FOR DREDGING VESSELS

New IMO emissions regulations are being adopted each year. But dredging vessels are more than ships. They are work-boats and legislators must keep that in mind.

– APPROACHING EMISSIONS IN DREDGING

Since dredging equipment is the source of emissions, shipbuilders and equipment manufacturers must help develop clean technologies that address total energy consumption.

– NEW IADC SAFETY COMMITTEE & CHARTER

Safety awareness in the dredging industry has taken a leap forward. The efforts of the IADC are part of the new safety strategy to reduce accidents and incidents to zero.
