USPA raised the dredger “Ingulsky”, which was previously damaged during work at the mouth of the Bystre Estuary


The USPA reported that the dredger was successfully raised – the vessel is currently awaiting inspection.

This was reported by the USPA press service.

The department notes that the vessel is currently being sent for a technical inspection, the results of which will determine the scope and procedure for carrying out repair work.

“We understand the strategic importance of this vessel for ensuring dredging work, in particular on the Danube. The restoration of the Ingulsky is an important step towards strengthening the USPA’s ability to perform key functions on its own,” the company notes.

As previously reported by USM, on July 23, an explosion occurred on a dredger belonging to the Delta-pilot branch of the USPA SE. The vessel was at the mouth of the Bystre River to carry out scheduled work with 11 crew members. Three people died.
