Mammoet partnership for South Korea

Mammoet has announced a partnership with South Korea’s Samyang Marine Group in a move to develop the country’s offshore wind industry.

The partnership will establish Offshore Service Port (OSP) facilities located in the ports of Busan and Masan and provide heavy lifting and transport solutions catering to projects in South Korea and to the wider Asia Pacific region. It will combine all levels of terminal management including handling, staging, marshalling, and stevedoring services with heavy lifting and installation capabilities.
The partnership will also help to meet South Korea’s Renewable Energy 3020 implementation plan which includes 14.3GW of offshore wind by 2030.

Samyang chairman S.C. Roe said: “South Korea's offshore wind sector holds immense potential, and our partnership with Mammoet brings together local and international expertise to provide comprehensive solutions for the industry. Together, we will deliver world class services to support the construction and operation of offshore wind farms, driving the sector’s growth.”

Jack van den Brink of Mammoet Projects Asia added: “we are excited to collaborate with Samyang Marine to address the critical challenges in South Korea's offshore wind market. With a strong track record of successful projects in Korea 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."

Samyang Marine Group operates in the maritime industry and is involved in shipbuilding, ship repair, and marine engineering, catering to various industries such as oil and gas, renewable energy, and commercial shipping.
