From 15 December to 30 April, dredging works will be carried out at Gul Basin.
According to the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore Port Marine Notice No.162 of 2025, the works will be carried out 24 hours daily - including Sundays & public holidays - at sea, the working area bound by the following co-ordinates (WGS 84 Datum):
Working Area A
1 01°17.809'N / 103°40.430’E
2 01°17.642'N / 103°40.584’E
3 01°17.620'N / 103°40.560’E
4 01°17.788'N / 103°40.406’E
Working Area B
5 01°17.694'N / 103°40.481’E
6 01°17.614'N / 103°40.553’E

The work involves using a clamshell dredger to dredge the seabed and load the spoils into flat-top barges.
The clamshell dredger will be secured by 4-point anchor mooring. The anchor will be marked with flashing anchor buoys. Tugboats will be deployed to manoeuvre the barges in and out of the working area.
Dredged spoils from the working area will be loaded into a hopper barge. Once fully loaded, the hopper barge will travel from the working area to the designated dumping ground via the approved dumping route, assisted by a pusher tugboat.
The above process will continue until the completion of the dredging works.
A safety boat will be deployed to warn other craft in the vicinity of the working area.
Craft involved in the work will exhibit the appropriate local and international day and night signals.
When in the vicinity of the working area, mariners are reminded to:
a) Keep well clear and not to enter the work area;
b) Maintain a proper lookout;
c) Proceed at a safe speed and navigate with caution;
d) Maintain a listening watch on VHF Channel 22 (Jurong Control);
and
e) Communicate with Jurong Control for assistance, as required.
