Belgian marine contractor DEME has been awarded a significant contract to handle the transportation and installation of foundations for the first phase of the Zeevonk offshore wind farm. This project, located off the coast of the Netherlands, is a collaborative effort between Vattenfall and Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners, operating through its Energy Transition Fund I.
For freight forwarders and logistics professionals, this development signals ongoing demand for specialized heavy-lift and project cargo services in the offshore wind sector. The installation of large wind turbine foundations requires precise planning, specialized vessels, and port marshalling capabilities, impacting vessel scheduling and potentially increasing demand for specific port services in the region.
