The Role of Marine Research for Future Dredging Operations Mr. Marc Stordiau, President of the European Dredging Association

Trend in marine sand production (Combined beach nourishment + construction) m³ 25.000.000 20.000.000 15.000.000 10.000.000 5.000.000 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002  Year

Recent EuDA support for innovation : MAREBASSE - End-user Master Plan R&D Maritime Industries Forum

Recent EuDA support for European programmes : “Eurosion” study of coastal erosion INTERREG project “BeachMed”

External driving forces : Societal constraints : Climate change, sea level rise, coastal development. Environmental protection, sustainable development, safety + security. ICT, remote sensing. Technology push : Innovation in marine application Market pull : Increased aggregates demand, seabed mining, coastal protection methods, infrastructure at sea, renewable energies (offshore). Tools : Processes : Vessels Drilling Cutting Geotechnics Wave climate Energy transformation Sediment balance Morphodynamics

Needs : Aggregate dredging Maintenance dredging Capital dredging Infrastructure Coastal protection

Conclusions : Considerable scope for future marine / oceanographic research Detailed programme by research community Interaction and synergy between 5 disciplines to be stimulated Need for large models requires international cooperation
