Hongruntong Marine Slurry Suction Hose Supports Large Scale Port Dredging Project in Southeast Asia

Hongruntong Marine Slurry Suction Hose Supports Large Scale Port Dredging Project in Southeast Asia

Project Location: Southeast Asia
Client: National Dredging Contractor
Product Supplied: Slurry Suction Hoses (DN700, DN800)
Application: Port Expansion and Dredging Operation
Date: 2025

Background

As part of a major port expansion project in Southeast Asia, the client required a reliable slurry transfer solution capable of handling abrasive sand and gravel mixtures under high suction pressure and continuous operation. The project involved dredging over 5 million cubic meters of seabed material to deepen and widen navigation channels for larger container vessels.

Challenge

The operation site presented harsh marine conditions — high temperature, strong tidal flow, and prolonged working hours. The hoses had to endure high abrasion, frequent bending, and constant negative pressure during suction. The client needed a hose solution that combined durability, flexibility, and low maintenance to minimize downtime and ensure project efficiency.

Hongruntong Marine Solution

After technical evaluation, Hongruntong Marine supplied a series of custom-designed slurry suction hoses (DN700 and DN800) tailored to the project’s specifications.
Each hose was built with:

• Premium wear-resistant rubber lining for longer service life

• Reinforced steel wire and fabric layers to resist high suction pressure

• Heavy-duty flanges ensuring reliable connections to the dredger pipeline system

• Weather- and seawater-resistant outer cover for extended durability in tropical environments

All hoses underwent hydrostatic pressure testing and dimensional inspection before shipment to ensure compliance with international standards.

Results and Client Feedback

The Hongruntong hoses have been in continuous service for over 12 months with excellent performance and minimal wear. The client reported a 20% improvement in operational uptime compared to their previous hose system, along with reduced maintenance costs and fewer replacement cycles.

“Hongruntong Marine provided outstanding technical support and high-quality hoses that performed beyond our expectations,” said the project’s engineering manager. “Their products helped us complete the dredging phase safely and efficiently.”

Conclusion

This successful project demonstrates Hongruntong Marine’s ability to deliver reliable and durable slurry suction hose systems for large-scale dredging and port development operations.

Through professional engineering, strict quality control, and responsive after-sales service, Hongruntong continues to strengthen its reputation as a trusted partner in the global marine industry.
