Landing craft Sam

A true all-rounder

Our landing vessel can justifiably be called a multifunctional working vessel. The vessel, named Sam, is equipped with a deck crane, loading ramp and spud poles. This combination allows the landing vessel to be used in a multifunctional way for projects.

Poorly accessible places become accessible with the Sam. Using the loading ramp, equipment such as aerial platforms and tractors are driven on and off board. Hydraulic spud poles ensure that movements are taken out of the vessel.

In this way, stability is created so that work can be carried out from deck using, for example, aerial platforms. The crane on deck can also be used for operations. The 88-ton/m crane with jib can still lift 1,300 kg over a length of 27 metres.
Thanks to the powerful CCR2 engines, the landing craft can also serve as a pusher craft. An extra advantage of Browema's landing craft is that - according to regulations - it can be sailed by one person.

The landing craft is the ideal equipment for this work:

Painting work on bridges and other structures
Repair and maintenance work on bridges
Bringing project parts into position with the deck crane
Working at height, stable ground for aerial work platforms
Making poorly accessible places accessible, transferring equipment
Can function as a pusher

Deployed in the following projects:

Loading...

ADM Europoort

The aerial platform was securely positioned on the jack-up platform so that the asbestos-containing sheets of the conveyor belts on the pier could be safely replaced.

Bridge Kampen

For the painting work on the bridge in Kampen, all possibilities of Browema's landing craft Sam were used.

Bridge Zwolle

For the concrete repair of the bridge in Zwolle, the spud poles of the landing craft provided the necessary stability.

Roompotsluis footbridges

On the inside and outside (on the sea side) of the lock, the old footbridges were replaced with the help of the landing craft.

Sassenplaat

The equipment for the pruning work was lifted on board the landing craft in the winter and taken to the Sassenplaat.

Vapour return pipes Vopak

Combining equipment is no problem. During the installation of pipes, both the jack-up platform and the landing craft Sam were used.
