We have successfully produced and shipped 5 heavy pile cap concrete shells for Metrostav Norge AS.
The 5 elements, each weighing 300 tons, were fabricated on a barge over the last 4 months. These elements feature a highly complex design, resembling a truncated pyramid with rounded edges, and the surface of the outer wall is intentionally bent at a specific point.
The elements are now on their way to Tromsø, where Metrostav Norge AS will install them using a floating crane.

We have successfully completed the first load-out using our new giant crane.
The Kroll K6500S. This impressive crane offers a range of remarkable features, including:
• 300t capacity up to 19,3m from the axis and 170 tons on the 30m arm
• 58m maximum reach
• 80m height under the hook
• 110m total height of crane
• 300m rails tracks alongside the quay
With these capabilities, we can now load large-scale elements with exceptional efficiency and safety. Additionally, we are open to providing lifting services for external partners.

Ongoing production of THOR Main Access Platforms
We are ongoing with production of Main Access Platforms for THOR offshore wind farm for Penglai Dajin Offshore Heavy Industry Co. Limited.
RWE, which is the end Client, will build Thor offshore wind farm in the Danish North Sea, on the west coast of Jutland, approximately 22 kilometres from Thorsminde in the municipality of Holstebro. With a planned capacity of more than 1,000 MW, Thor is Denmark’s largest offshore wind farm to date.
Until today we have casted 57 pcs out of 72 pcs platforms in the project. We are outfitting platforms with aluminium railings and accessories, mounting and load testing davit cranes and installing upper ladder and low voltage cables and equipment. In October 2024 we have succesfully performed First Article Inspection on the 1st fully equipped platform. Afterwards we have organised the transport and deliver the 1st platform to Szczecin where the mock-up tests will be done on the monopile. The FOB delivery of platforms is scheduled between March and May 2025.
