Dutch duo Marine Coordination Services (MCS) and DHSS are teaming to deliver services to operators working in the offshore wind industry.
Marine Coordination provides a link between the planning and the offshore execution of activities, managing all operational activities, the companies said.
DHSS chief executive Wim Schouwenaar said: “Adding marine coordination to our current helicopter coordination services completes the full scope of work we aim to deliver to our clients to unburden them.
“This activity is the added value to our current operations as vessel agency, port logistics and helicopter operations which DHSS is providing.
“With MCS on board, we have found a well-established collaborating partner, ensuring that the onsite marine operations of our clients are performed safely and efficiently, 24/7 – by air and vessel.”
MCS director Jens Doeksen said: “We are very pleased to have found a strategic partner in DHSS, which is highly involved in the offshore wind development on a wide scale, serving all majors in various phases.
“Sharing experience, network and knowledge will create a further basis of trust where our mutual clients will benefit from.
“Beside our brand new main control room at Terschelling with our latest IT solutions, MCS has now presence at A1 locations in Eemshaven, IJmuiden and Den Helder.
“We also team up with the helicopter coordination team of DHSS, which is developing on a global scale rapidly, so we have full coverage.
“We are now able to execute helicopter & marine coordination services worldwide for our offshore wind clients, with first opportunities in Europe and US.”
