Second Suez Canal - Icon of the Future

  • Опубликовано: 4 авг 2015
  • Records were broken, vessels were mobilised from every corner of the globe, and work was carried out non-stop. The construction of the new Suez Canal in Egypt was like a rollercoaster ride.
    In less than a year’s time, a second canal was constructed alongside the old canal. By completing this iconic project, Van Oord once again left its mark on the world.
