The Dutch dredging and marine contractor Van Oord NV has ordered at IHC Systems the delivery of IHC Systems' new generation DLM/STPM presentation system for its trailing suction hopper dredge Volvox Delta. Originally built in 1984 at the IHC Holland yard in Kinderdijk, the present order replaces the IHC Systems original delivered presentation systems which are meanwhile obsolete. The new (redesigned) DLM/STPM system will combine both stand-alone DLM and STPM systems in one single environment.

Order for the delivery of suction tube (position) instrumentation cabling; IHC Systems is proud to announce that it recently acquired the order for the delivery of suction tube (position) instrumentation from its 'sister' IHC Holland NV Parts and Services in Kinderdijk for the trailing hopper dredger Oranje, currently under construction at Shipyard De Merwede in Hardinxveld-Giessendam for the Dutch dredging contractor Royal Boskalis in Papendrecht. The delivery is scheduled for the second quarter 2004.

A consortium consisting of Imtech Marine & Offshore B.V., IHC Systems B.V. and MARIN has been awarded the order to supply a bridge simulator to the Province of West-Flanders (Belgium). The bridge simulator is intended for the Centre for Maritime Education in Zeebrugge. The three consortium members have combined their specific knowledge to implement this particular project. Imtech Marine & Offshore has acquired years of experience in the construction of integrated bridge systems and ship automation equipment. IHC Systems (50% subsidiary of Imtech Marine & Offshore) are suppliers of fully automated dredging systems on practically every dredging vessel throughout the world. MARIN has built up years of experience in the field of ship simulation, model testing and hydrodynamics. In addition to training ship crews for conventional vessels such as container and passenger ships, it is also possible to train crews for dredgers and fishing vessels on the bridge simulator. The steering house with bridge consoles will be equipped with projectors and a 330° round presentation screen. The simulator naturally also includes an extensive instructor console and a debriefing station. The bridge simulator is based on the UniMACS 3000® integrated bridge concept from Imtech Marine & Offshore, installed worldwide in both civilian and naval vessels. By using the standardised UniMACS concept, combined with the specific knowledge of IHC Systems and MARIN, the consortium is able to respond perfectly to the requirements of this project. Through the implementation of this order, a major contribution will be made to the safety of our heavily-used waters. A well-trained crew is essential to marine safety.
