Description
Dredging project management involves the planning, execution, and monitoring of dredging operations. Dredging is the process of removing sediment, debris, and other materials from the bottom of water bodies such as harbors, rivers, and channels. Dredging is often necessary to maintain waterway depth, to create new waterways, and to reclaim land from the sea.
Dredging project management involves several key activities, includes project planning, environmental impact assessment, site preparation, dredging operations, monitoring and evaluation.
Dredging project management requires a team of experts, including project managers, environmental scientists, dredging engineers, and equipment operators. Effective communication, stakeholder engagement, and collaboration are essential to ensure the success of a dredging project.
Dredging Project Management for Dredgers & Project Engineers (DPMDPE) Level 1 is designed for project personels and will assist those who are responsible for planning, construction and managing dredging contractors and those who regulate dredging. Participant shall also gain insight into financing dredging project contracts, tenders and bidding.
