Floating Dredge Hose is an advanced marine engineering product designed for continuous, high-capacity slurry transport in offshore, coastal, and port dredging operations. Its multi-layer construction consists of a high-abrasion synthetic rubber inner lining, reinforced carcass layers made of high-strength textile cords or steel wire, and a weather-resistant outer cover that protects against UV radiation, ozone, saltwater, and chemical exposure.

Integrated closed-cell foam flotation provides stable buoyancy, preventing sagging, misalignment, and stress accumulation on joints, even in high-wave and tidal conditions. The hose is capable of handling dense and abrasive slurry, including sand, silt, gravel, and mixed sediments, while maintaining optimal flow efficiency.

During the construction of an offshore wind farm in Northern Europe, a 24,000 DWT trailing suction hopper dredger was used to prepare the seabed for turbine foundations over a 3.5-kilometer distance. The operation involved transporting a mix of sand, gravel, and silt under strong currents and cold water conditions.

Hongruntong Floating Dredge Hoses were deployed to form the floating discharge pipeline. The abrasion-resistant inner lining handled coarse sand and gravel without significant wear, while the closed-cell foam flotation maintained consistent buoyancy and alignment despite strong tidal currents.

The project achieved a 29% increase in dredging efficiency, significantly reduced downtime, and lowered maintenance requirements. Operators reported safer working conditions due to stable pipeline alignment, and the modular design enabled rapid replacement of hose segments.
