Bel leveller – Hoekman Shipbuilding

Peter

General specifications

  • Length overall: 22,3 m
  • Beam: 7,0 m
  • Draught: 2,0 m
  • Propulsion power: 810 kw
  • Maximum dredging depth: 25,0 m
The Peter is built for broad operational versatility. It levels the seabed, relocates material and works efficiently in confined areas. With dual-frequency multi- and single-beam echosounders, it also operates as a capable survey vessel. The Peter supports seabed sampling, turbidity measurements, anchor handling and buoy removal, and can clear floating debris to keep ports clean and safely accessible.
  • Debris plough: 7 m
  • Sand plough: 8 m
  • Silt plough: 10 m

Sustainability features

  • IMO Tier III and Euro Stage V compliant propulsion.
  • SCR system for NOx reduction.
  • Diesel particulate filters (DPF)
  • IMO Green Passport

Good to know

The Peter is a versatile bed leveller developed for Hoekman Shipbuilding & Dutch Dredging and designed by Marimecs to deliver accuracy, reliability and efficiency across a wide range of dredging environments. Building on the proven Kees jr. platform, we refined the vessel’s design and naval architecture to create a compact workboat that offers consistent, high-precision seabed levelling.

CFD 11 kts

With a length of 22 metres, the Peter combines strong propulsion with advanced multibeam and single beam survey systems, enabling detailed 3D mapping and highly accurate profiling. Marimecs applied targeted engineering and CFD analysis to optimise hull performance for fuel-efficient transits, supporting economical operation as the vessel moves between project sites throughout the Netherlands, Germany and France.

A forward-looking approach to emission control was incorporated at the time of build, aligning with Dutch Dredging’s ambition to operate cleaner and more efficient workboats.
