N-Sea Group has signed a contract to build a new operations support base with their valued partner MSCY B.V. who develops and operates facilities at Zeehaven IJmuiden Port (NL).

Dennis Stolk, Director Assets of N-Sea Group states: “We are excited that N-Sea has been able to secure this prime location for development of its future primary operations support base. As per Q4 2025 we will be able to support all our offshore activities in the Europe region from one unique location. Bringing together maintenance, repair, storage, and logistical activities under one roof on one location allowing N-Sea to provide safer and more efficient operations. Through this initiative N-Sea will be positioned to extend its subsea solution service portfolio and capabilities, in alignment with current and future needs of our valued customers.”

Jasper Joosse, Manager Operations OSB IJmuiden of N-Sea adds: “The unique location and (organizational) set-up allows us to optimally manage our asset base and support, our growing fleet, and project volume from one location. Standardizing work methods, the use of digitized track & trace systems, all supported by a dedicated team of in-house technicians and experts will allow us to reduce operational down time within our projects to a minimum. The offshore support base is strategically well-situated with open access to the North Sea, without the need of using the locks of the North Sea Canal. As such the port is within 20-minute drive from Amsterdam and Schiphol Airport.”

The new-build base is planned to be completed and fully operational as per end Q4 2025, the outdoor storage yard will enter into use already from mid Q1 2025 onwards.
