MIGHTY SHIPS — IBN BATTUTA

This video will tell us about the IBN Battuta, one of the most sophisticated dredgers. Built to tear through anything under the ocean floor, working on the edge of typhoons and in any weather conditions, navigating around unexplored areas – this is all just business as usual for the super dredger IBN Battuta.

This is one of the world’s most powerful cutter suction dredgers of today, built to dig channels and harbors deep enough for today’s largest ships. This super dredger can dig up to one hundred thousand cubic meters of soil from the sea floor in a single 24-hour period. That is enough to fill six hundred and twenty five thousand barrels. She can go almost anywhere in the world. The crew is made of fifty highly skilled professionals ready to perform their duties in any part of the world.

In this video you will accompany the crew of IBN Battuta dredger in the mission of deepening the Vietnamese harbor so that it can accommodate larger vessels which would eventually result in better economy. The sheer muscles of the dredger allow it to cut through nearly everything; however, the crew shall be prepared to handle a huge number of problems… one of the most interesting films of the whole Mighty Ships series.
