Theme of Presentation
The Dutch identity is closely linked with excellence in dredging and marine engineering & construction and
water management
In the Netherlands we had extensive discussions on the Dutch Identity when the Scientific Council for Government Policy published a report called “Identificatie met Nederland “

How Safe are You?
• “Who cares as long as we don’t get caught”
• “HSE meetings are a waste of time”
• “I accept that injuries are unavoidable in this
kind of work”
• “I dislike when HSE officers go on about HSE”
• “I think we have so many Client audit and
inspections, I’ll never get the work done”
• “It’s all about paper work”
Let’s talk about attitudes and behavior,because quotes like
this still exist:

What can I do personally to improve
our Environment?
Change your Mindset!

Mass Flow Excavation®
Large amounts of water are pumped through the nozzles in the jetframe.The flow of water thus created, reaches the seabed with high velocity and moves the sand or gravel in a controlled manner to the side.

The Netherlands, build by nature and men
• Three European rivers form low lying delta• People start to live on - man made - higher grounds• From the 11th century construction of dikes• From 17th century ‘polders’• In 20th century Delta Plan• Without defences 65% of the country would be
subject to flooding• 70% of our GDP is generated ‘under water’

Water, an everlasting challenge
• We suffered from many disastrous floods
• Flood of 1953 shocked the world (1835 casualties)
• Additional protection needed more than ever
• Massive investments to close ‘Zuyder Zee’ (€ 50 mln. In 1930) and ‘Delta Plan’ (€ 9 bln. in 20 years)
• Total of 1000 km of sea defences, shortening the coast by 700 km
• One of the world’s largest engineering challenges

From Polders to …..
• Delta Plan fosters continious technological development in dredging and marine construction
• As a country we have learned to adapt to climate challenges
• Recent floods show that permanent vigilance is required
• Expected future climate changes require additional protective measures

…..to Palm Island
• Clear vision of leadership of Dubai to – develop a sustainable economy– become one of the most attractive tourist
destination – become a leading commercial and trading ‘hub’
• Determination to implement vision• Realisation of projects unprecedented in terms of
design, planning, speed and size

Contracting
Partnering: new approach to contracting, increasinglyused in the UK and Internationally
• Long-term agreement between all parties involved (client, engineer, contractors) carrying out the execution as One Team – Frame Agreements
• Pro-active approach to problem solving as a project team –most valuable on high-risk construction projects – Risk Register and Risk Sharing
• Joint ownership of common objectives and commitment –Target Sums and pain/gain
• Project Board
