Broekman teams from Project Logistics, Broekman Shipping Rotterdam and Broekman Eemshaven Services joined forces to carry out a well\u2011coordinated towage operation involving three barges along the Rotterdam\u2013Eemshaven route.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The barges were equipped with cable\u2011lay materials used for the installation of electrical cables in the Wadden Sea. Each unit measured 60 \u00d7 16 \u00d7 3 metres, with an airdraft of up to 14.5 metres and a gross tonnage of 775 GT.<\/p>\n

To ensure a safe and efficient transit, tugboats remained on standby while our teams closely monitored readiness and weather conditions. Once a suitable weather window was confirmed, the towage operation proceeded smoothly and according to plan.<\/p>\n

This project is a strong example of how our marine services and project logistics capabilities are seamlessly integrated \u2014 enabling us to manage complex operations from preparation through to successful delivery.<\/p>\n
