Mammoet and Samyang Marine Group have entered into a new partnership in a strategic move to support South Korea’s growing offshore wind industry.
The large global engineered heavy lifting and transport company Mammoet and Samyang Marine Group team up to provide comprehensive heavy lifting and transport solutions for South Korea’s Offshore Wind sector.
This collaboration is set to establish Offshore Service Port (OSP) facilities to serve projects across sectors in South Korea, with a primary focus on upcoming offshore wind projects.
The partnership will integrate full-spectrum terminal management, including handling, staging, marshaling and stevedoring services, with heavy lifting and installation capabilities.
The OSPs, located in the ports of Busan and Masan, will cater to projects in South Korea and the broader Asia-Pacific region.
According to Mammoet, the partnership responds to the need for an enhanced offshore wind supply chain and services to meet the targets outlined in South Korea’s Renewable Energy 3020 implementation plan, which includes 14.3GW of offshore wind by 2030.
“With a strong track record of successful projects in Korea, including S-Oil’s Onsan refinery, the jacking of a 42,780t Arkutun Dagi topside at Okpo Shipyard in Geoje, and our recent jacking scope for Hailong Offshore Wind Farm project, this partnership is all about leveraging our combined strengths to create value and foster the growth of renewable energy in the region,” said Jack van den Brink, managing director of Mammoet projects AMEA.
