In this session, Alkwin Landewee of Boskalis will take you to Manila in the Philippines where the large dredging contractors tendered for a reclamation project.

To make a project like this successful, survey and site investigation are essential. What is involved to do this properly? Think of permits, weather conditions and what kind of equipment you need.
