Our products and analyses have received high praise for our thoroughness, expertise and prompt delivery.

EDDY Pump provides a variety of hydrographic services within the marine industry including:

  • Dredge Industry
  • Cable and Pipeline Routes
  • Environmental Remediation
  • Object and Wreck Detection
  • Dredge Positioning and Monitoring

Maintenance Dredging

Similar to other industrial processes, regular maintenance is required to keep the dredging system functional and free of any issues. Maintenance dredging is used to deepen or maintain navigable waterways or channels that have become silted. These waterways can become too shallow to navigate if sediment is left unmanaged. Lagoons and settling tanks are notorious for rapid sedimentation buildup, which needs to be removed annually to avoid reduced holding capacity, gunk/odor buildup, and murky water.

Dredging Surveys

EDDY Pump provides hydrographic survey services for marine contractors, including channel and berth maintenance dredging, contaminated material remediation, capping, cable, and pipeline tracking and location services. These types of surveys require high accuracy and great attention to detail EDDY Pump is accustomed to providing.

EDDY Pump operates a fleet of state of the art survey vessels designed around the demands on the production dredging community. All of Bay Marine Services vessel has been designed to meet the standards of the US Coast Guard, Us Army Corps of Engineers and CARB regulations.

Cable & Pipeline Surveys

EDDY Pump offers the latest technology for locating and inspecting submerged cables and pipelines. Our services include multibeam sonar surveys, side-scan sonar surveys, gradiometer surveys, and both ROV imaging surveys both acoustic and visual. EDDY Pump can provide owners and contractors with the high-resolution imagery they need to for both the evaluation and construction of their projects.

Environmentals Remediation

EDDY Pump can help with all of your field data collection needs during the investigation, planning and, construction of your environmental remediation project. From providing high-resolution surveys and core sampling during the investigation phase of the project to, peer review of project methods prior to contracting, and contractor oversight and monitoring during construction.

Our dredge is designed to be the most precise dredge available, in order to only remove the target material and not over-dredge unwanted virgin material. This, in turn, lowers the cost and time of contaminant material treatment and overall dredging. The ability to dredge with little to no detectable turbidity creates the optimal environmental dredge for low turbidity dredging projects.

Object & Wreck Investigation

EDDY Pump can help with the location and identification of underwater objects and wrecks. We have experience working in some of the most challenging conditions and places on the Pacific Coast. Our capabilities include the ROV acoustic and video imaging, using high review.

Dredge Positioning

EDDY Pump can source and install custom dredge positioning and monitoring systems for Hydraulic, Bucket, or Hopper dredges as well as custom solutions for real-time monitoring of cap placement via hydraulic and mechanical methods. We have the ability to design, install, and support positioning systems using Winops, Dredge Pack, and Clam Vision software. In addition, EDDY Pump maintains an inventory of rental equipment for most dredge positioning needs.
