CAT320 Amphibious Excavator

OCS provides turnkey, cost-effective solutions for marine pipeline trenching, backed by a comprehensive suite of in-house equipment and experienced technical personnel. Our trenching spread can be deployed quickly onto an OCS barge or a third-party barge nominated by the client, offering maximum operational flexibility.

The OCS-owned CAT 320D2 Amphibious Excavator is one of our purpose-built assets added to support nearshore and shoreline excavation works. Fitted with a 14m long reach boom and mounted on a pontoon undercarriage, the excavator is designed to operate in shallow water and soft terrain environments. It is powered by a CAT® C7.1 engine, known for fuel efficiency and dependable performance in marine conditions.
For added versatility, the unit can be equipped with side pontoons and a hydraulic spud system to increase floatation and stability—making it especially effective for trenching works in tidal zones and swampy areas.
The excavator supports a wide range of trenching and marine operations, including:
  • Pipeline Shore Approaches
  • Pipeline Post Trenching
  • Pre-Trenching Services
  • Utility Barge Support
