2021-4-22 Mega-scale Sand Extraction from the North Sea A realistic future scenario or just science fiction? Imagine a ‘mega-scale’ sand extraction trench in front of the Dutch coast: 200 kilometres long, 10 kilometres wide and several metres deep. In their long-term sand extraction strategy, Dutch government coastal managers take this concept seriously.
Read Moreand Water Management has changed their policies concerning marine sand and gravel extraction, and the procedure has been halted. If a party in future is interested in extraction on the Cleaver Bank, a new procedure has to be started. 2.3. Dredging In the Netherlands, the most commonly used vessel for sand extraction is the trailer suction hopper.
Read MoreSea sand extraction Since 1991 we have been active in the extraction of sea sand (0-2/0-4). To mine the sand, we use a trailing suction hopper dredger called ARGO 1. It will dredge up the desired sand on the Belgian and Dutch Continental Shelf and has an annual production capacity of approximately 1.2 million tonnes. Sea sand extraction Read More »

Read MoreThere are two main methods of extracting sand and gravel: In stationary extraction, an anchored cutter suction dredger excavates huge pits in the sea floor with depths of normally about 10 m and diameters of between 10 and 50 m. In the second method, a trailing suction hopper dredger removes sediment from the surface of the sea floor.
Read MoreMarine sand extraction has gradually increased over the years due to growing demand for marine sand following the exhaustion of sand quarries on land. A total of 2,800,000 m³ of sand was extracted from the Belgian area of the North Sea in 2015.

After processing the bathymetric data which provides information about depth, it is possible to follow the evolution of the seabed precisely in the sand extraction zones. In this way, it is possible to evaluate the effects of ...
