Hopper Barges
Unloading within minutes
The Rohde Nielsen hopper barges can be used in a wide range of projects and provide a continued and effective service to any stationary dredger.
Most of the vessels are purpose-built to transport sand, silt and even clay. With our self-propelled, split hopper barges, material can be unloaded within minutes and polluted material is handled respectfully in sealed tank barges.
