More space for offshore player
The Sif Holding, active at the port of Rotterdam (the Netherlands) since 2015, has agreed with the port authority on the lease of 200,000 sqm of port site and a 200-m stretch of deep-sea quay at Maasvlakte.
Sif, which specialises in offshore foundations, now occupies a new lot that lies adjacent to its existing port site, where the company already works on the assembly of foundations for offshore wind turbines. The newly allocated site will be used on behalf of clients active in the offshore wind power sector.
The first project to be undertaken at the new site will be the logistics handling of all 94 monopiles (wind turbine foundations) destined for the offshore wind farm Borssele 1 + 2, located in the Dutch part of the North Sea and commissioned by Deme Offshore. (fd)
