The Dutch specialist in cable logistics & recovery and related services for the offshore industry has signed a long-term agreement with Smålandshamnar for establishing a dedicated cable storage and offshore service yard in the latter's Port of Oskarshamn.

"The establishment of our new hub in Oskarshamn marks an important step in the expansion of WIND's activities in the Baltic region. By bringing together the capabilities across the entire WIND Group, we can offer clients a comprehensive range of services, including carousel rental, logistics and marshalling, alongside equipment supply, maintenance and vessel mobilisation services through our colleagues at Draftec. This integrated approach and our new location strengthen our ability to support offshore projects with efficient, reliable solutions," highlighted Tom Nooij, CEO of WIND.

Niclas Strömqvist, CEO of Smålandshamnar, also commented, "This agreement represents much more than a new customer establishment. It is a strategic investment that strengthens Oskarshamn's role in the rapidly growing offshore energy sector in the Baltic region. By combining WIND Group's global expertise with the Port of Oskarshamn's infrastructure and capabilities, we are creating a platform for future growth, new business opportunities, and long-term employment in our municipality and region. Our ambition is clear: to continue developing Oskarshamn into one of the leading ports for offshore energy, project cargo, and critical infrastructure in Northern Europe. We see this partnership as an important milestone on that journey."
