Overview

CEDA-UK are delighted to invite you to its half-day seminar "2026 UK Review - Another Year of Dredging", followed by the presentation of the Outstanding Contribution Awards 2026 

This seminar presents a diverse range of works, from capital dredging to facilitate new port facilities to environmental restoration and enhancement projects, as well as essential maintenance dredging.

Through detailed project presentations, attendees will gain valuable, real-world insights into the practical aspects of the dredging sector. 

Each session will explore the unique challenges faced, the lessons learned along the way, and the strategies that led to successful outcomes.


In addition to reflecting on recent achievements, the seminar will also look ahead, examining how these experiences can inform and inspire future projects.

Whether you are a professional in maritime infrastructure, coastal engineering, or environmental management, this seminar provides an opportunity to deepen your understanding and stay current with the latest developments in dredging practice and innovation.
