Dennis Stolk, Director of Assets of N-Sea Group, states: “We are excited that N-Sea has been able to secure this prime location for the development of its future primary operations support base. As of Q4 2025, we will be able to support all our offshore activities in the European region from one unique location. Bringing together maintenance, repair, storage, and logistical activities under one roof in one location allows N-Sea to provide safer and more efficient operations. Through this initiative, N-Sea will be positioned to extend its subsea solution service portfolio and capabilities in alignment with the current and future needs of our valued customers.”
Jasper Joosse, Manager Operations OSB IJmuiden of N-Sea, adds: “The unique location and (organizational) set-up allows us to optimally manage our asset base and support, our growing fleet, and project volume from one location. Standardizing work methods and the use of digitized track & trace systems, all supported by a dedicated team of in-house technicians and experts, will allow us to reduce operational downtime within our projects to a minimum. The offshore support base is strategically well-situated with open access to the North Sea, without the need to use the locks of the North Sea Canal. As such, the port is within a 20-minute drive from Amsterdam and Schiphol Airport.”
The new-build base is planned to be completed and fully operational by the end of Q4 2025; the outdoor storage yard will enter into use already from mid-Q1 2025 onwards.
