Waterway surveys in the Elbe–North Sea area 2027/2028

Summary

This procurement covers bathymetric surveys of waterways and water bodies in the Elbe–North Sea area, divided into five lots: tributaries and side channels from Cranz to Kollmar and from Kollmar to Freiburg; dredging-control surveys and structures; the Wischhafener Süderelbe ferry-route section; and Elbe tidal-flat edges and survey profiles. The work includes surveying, checking the results, and delivering data, plans and documentation. Survey areas include the Elbe, Este, Lühe, Pinnau, Krückau and Stör rivers and the Oste area. The ferry-route section is surveyed every 14 days, while tidal-flat surveys are planned for spring 2027 and autumn 2028.
