On March 17, 2015 Hertel has announced the acquisition of Hertel by Altrad for its worldwide access solutions, insulation, corrosion protection and mechanical businesses. Hertel Offshore was not part of the acquisition by Altrad, but will continue its activities and business with the same shareholders (NPM Capital, Ackermans & van Haaren and Hertel Offshore Management) under a new brand name.

Hertel Offshore has now changed its name and will continue its business as per May 1, 2015 under its new name: CKT Projects.

Hertel Offshore was an amalgation (between 2005 and 2008) of three companies: Hertel Marine Services BV, CKT Projects BV and McGill Services Ltd. As CKT Projects BV has always been a reputable and reliable partner for many in the On- and Offshore Oil & Gas, Naval and Marine and Defense industries, this familiar brand name has been chosen and will be rejuvenated.

Robert Jan Dubbeldam, Managing Director of CKT Projects adds; “ We are convinced that we have a strong potential to further develop CKT Projects as a market leader in our businesses and to serve our customers locally and around the globe under our new brand name CKT Projects”.
