Rometal’s logistics and installation services.

I“ t is always a pleasure to see how we managed it once again, both safely and within the requirements. Our team of professionals is stll growing and looking forward to new demanding projects”, Mr Van Manen says.

Offshore wind equipment

He contnues, “The constructon of ofshore wind farms remains a rapidly growing market for our company. Many of our customers require a lot of tailor-made tools and equipment for ofshore installatons services. Because of the diferent locatons and circumstances like wind and water conditons, each wind farm is diferent and thus requires dedicated equipment. We recently delivered various pieces of equipment for a French wind farm. For this project, our customer asked us not only to produce the equipment but also to take care of the related logistcs and installaton services. When this farm becomes operatonal in 2023, it will have a total installed capacity of 496MW. We are currently preparing the producton of a drilling template for another French ofshore wind farm which needs to be fnished in Q1 of next year. This wind farm is located near Normandy.”

Contribution to clean energy

According to Mr Van Manen, he is very pleased that with the services provided to its customers, Rometal can contribute to an environmentally-friendly future. “Indirectly,” he explains, “by supplying the necessary tools and equipment, we contribute to the energy transiton. However, on top of this we have also invested in a greener future by having solar roof panels installed for our overall energy consumpton. Nowadays, more than 50% of our energy demand is provided by the sun. Besides of this, we are convertng our company cars into electric ones. More investments to support clean

energy are coming up. We hope to be able to communicate more about this soon.”
