The Noerpel Group, a leading logistics and forwarding company based in southern Germany, is setting new standards regarding the efficiency and sustainability of its operational procedures.

By using the KAMAG PrecisionMover (PM) in their handling operations, Noerpel has underlined its commitment to ensuring excellence in ergonomics, technology and ecological sustainability.

Handling operations at Noerpel´s facility in Ulm relies on the KAMAG PrecisionMover (PM) for realising yard logistics and, in the process, has demonstrated impressive performance and efficiency by realising up to 125 swap body and 100 semi-trailer movements per day. The procurement of the KAMAG PM swap body transporter thereby marks a crucial step in optimising the company´s handling processes. The efficient swap body transporter from TII KAMAG, a specialist for internal transport solutions, has been designed for quick and precise manoeuvring of swap bodies and semi-trailers.

Florian Harrer, manager of the Noerpel transshipment hall in Ulm, and Michael Wittmann, strategic buyer at Noerpel, emphasised the outstanding ergonomics and technical superiority of the KAMAG PM. “The dropped driver’s cab with its low entry means our yard drivers can get in and out of the vehicle more quickly which speeds up yard operations enormously. Moreover, the easy vehicle operability is a significant advantage especially in view of the current shortage of skilled workers. New colleagues can be trained to use the transporter in only two days whereby they immediately feel at home in the cabin and can work efficiently right from the start,” explained Harrer.

The Noerpel Group attaches great importance to sustainability and future-oriented technologies which has been underlined by the procurement of two additional fully electric KAMAG ePrecisionMovers. “A modern fleet is crucial in order to make the working environment more attractive for our drivers,” emphasised Harrer. With the use of the KAMAG ePrecisionMover, Noerpel is not only focusing on increasing efficiency and improving ergonomics but also on a sustainable future in its logistics business.

TII KAMAG is proud to have the opportunity to contribute to the success story of the Noerpel Group through its yard logistics solutions. “Our partnership with Noerpel is proof of our commitment to drive the logistics industry forward by means of sustainable and efficient transport solutions,” said Jürgen Haupt, Head of Sales Yard Logistics at TII KAMAG.

Rhenus PartnerShip is strengthening its own competitive position on the river Rhine heading to Belgium with immediate effect.

By adopting an internationalisation strategy, the inland waterway shipping specialist is expanding its services towards Antwerp and will act as an independent company in the Belgian market in future. To enable this development, Rhenus is increasing its shareholding in DGA Shipping to 100 percent.

DGA Shipping operates in the inland waterway shipping sector in Belgium and offers inland waterway shipping services right across the country and in the entire ARA region (Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Antwerp). Its main activities not only include chartering, but shipping using its own and outside cargo space – for example, with push boats and non-motorised barges. The company specialises in providing dry shipping for bulk commodities, general cargo and project loads. It offers transport services to all the ports in the Rhine catchment area, to all the tributaries of the river Rhine and all over Germany through German partner companies. DGA, which has its headquarters in the port of Antwerp, therefore operates a similar business model to Rhenus PartnerShip in Germany. Rhenus held 45 percent of the shares up to the present time; this is now being increased to 100 percent. HGK Shipping GmbH previously had a majority holding in the company.

“We’ve decided to sell our shares in DGA Shipping, as we generally intend to withdraw from shareholdings. We’ll be investing the sales revenue generated by this in the ongoing strategic development of the HGK Shipping Group, and particularly in new business units. We believe that the business is in good hands with Rhenus and we wish the company every success,” says Steffen Bauer, the CEO of HGK Shipping. “Thanks to the 100 percent shareholding, Rhenus PartnerShip is consolidating its position in the market place and we can support our customers in an even more flexible manner. The share acquisition will allow us to maximise our synergies, use resources more efficiently and offer our customers an even broader and better portfolio of services,” says Thomas Maassen, the Managing Director of Rhenus PartnerShip, explaining the development.

Rhenus is particularly focusing on Rhine traffic heading to Antwerp in this business development. “We want to expand our services towards Belgium and play a leading role in order to be able to successfully establish our position in the market there,” Thomas Maassen adds. Rhenus is using this change to secure itself a strong competitive position on the river Rhine heading towards Belgium and can make use of the powerful network that DGA has established in the past with Rhenus and HGK. DGA has, among other things, access to both its own transport capacity and a large external fleet. “We’ve greatly expanded the DGA business with HGK during the last few years, particularly in the field of chartering. However, there has been and there still is a great deal of potential that we now want to further develop,” says Thomas Maassen, summarising matters. The redistribution of the shares will not have any effect on the employees or the customers. The DGA team will continue to exist as in the past and current customer projects and partnerships will retain their validity.

One of the largest cranes in the world, the Mammoet PTC210-DS, will shortly undertake the lift of a huge A-Frame for the Van Oord-owned heavy lift installation vessel, Svanen.

The colossal 210,000tm, 3,200t class crane was chosen as it is one of the few cranes in the world capable of performing the job, and was available locally.

As offshore wind turbines grow to achieve greater efficiency, so too are their components. The upgrade to the larger A-Frame will enable the Svanen to install new generation monopile foundations at sea.

The frame is made up of three main components, which were fabricated by Holland Shipyards and were moved, lifted and transported by Mammoet to its quayside headquarters in Schiedam, The Netherlands.

There, the different components of the A-frame will be assembled and then driven 66 meters along the waterfront using 64 axle lines of Mammoet Self-Propelled Modular Transporters (SPMTs), ready for the PTC to perform the lift.

The completed A-Frame will increase the total height of the Svanen to 125 meters.

The configuration of the PTC to perform the lift will be 105 meters of main boom and 66 meters of luffing jib, with more than 4,000 tonnes of counterweight in use.

Installation of the frame will take just one week during April and May. The efficiency of the project is due to the crane’s availability in Rotterdam and the fact that the A-Frame can be lifted as a single unit.

Julian Alkemade, Project Manager at Mammoet, said: “These two unique pieces of equipment are in the same place at the same time. The lift capabilities and location of the PTC will greatly mitigate downtime for the vessel.

Normally, such a project could take a year or so to plan, but here it has only taken a few months due to the crane’s availability and its unique capabilities as one of the world’s largest”.

On 16th February, Jumbo welcomed a group of nine mechanical engineering students from the Hanze Hogeschool Groningen to its premises in Schiedam.

The event was one of a number that Jumbo has recently participated in, in a bid to increase its engagement with students and education establishments in the Netherlands.

During their time at Jumbo’s office, the students were invited to a series of presentations detailing the work of Jumbo Shipping and Jumbo Offshore. They also attended a presentation by Jumbo Marine Engineers Bas Milatz and Martijn Witvoet on beginning a career at Jumbo. Bas and Martijn began working at Jumbo just over a year previously, following the conclusion of their studies at the Delft University of Technology (TU Delft).

Since their graduation, Bas and Martijn have been working hard to raise Jumbo’s profile amongst the student community, as Bas explains. “Having only recently graduated, we still had access to a strong network in our university and the world of academia. This offered us the opportunity to make connections on behalf of Jumbo that could be mutually beneficial.

“The idea was well received at Jumbo – a good indication of the freedom to take the initiative that is such a strong part of our company culture. We see events such as this as an opportunity to present Jumbo and the maritime industry to students and graduates and show them the great potential that exists for careers in our sector.”

To demonstrate their capabilities for innovation and logistical problem solving, the students were invited to take part in a case study where they would design a newbuild vessel to carry out installation of a North Sea offshore wind farm. Having been presented with the details of components – monopiles, transitions pieces (TPs) and turbines – the students were invited to select which parts their vessel would install.

This required them to outline the size of their vessel and select the relevant equipment for the job, including a heavy lift crane. They were also required to work out a schedule showing how many voyages would be necessary, as well as detailing how they would perform the installation while minimising environmental impact.

“The sustainability angle is particularly important,” says Martijn. “It’s something we are asked about frequently by prospective employees and a topic we are very focused on at Jumbo. This is one of the many areas where we hope to work together with the next generation of engineers to help pave the way forward for the offshore energy transition.”
Stijn Linneman, first year Mechanical Engineering student at the Hanze Hogeschool Groningen, says, “It was an inspiring day during which we gained valuable insights into the offshore wind industry in which Jumbo plays a significant role. It’s inspiring to see that at Jumbo, the lines between different departments are short, and projects are tackled with great motivation.”

The event proved to be a great success, says Bas, including for those less familiar with the maritime industry.
“Some of the students were not familiar with the sector and their interest was notable. They asked a lot of very good questions. At the end of the day, you could tell they had really learned something.”

Sarens was asked to lift an evaporator and separator in a busy city center in Aalst, Belgium.

In a remarkable feat of engineering and coordination, Sarens lifted an evaporator and separator along with several smaller pieces necessary for the facility’s operations at the Tereos Starch & Sweeteners Europe facility in Aalst, Belgium. The lifts were completed within a tight timeframe and challenging conditions. The project, which involved maneuvering heavy equipment in a small area in the center of the city, required meticulous planning and execution.

The congested site, coupled with the bustling urban environment, necessitated coordination with local authorities, including the police, to ensure minimal disruption to the surrounding area. Moreover, wind restrictions added an extra layer of complexity, requiring constant monitoring and adjustment to ensure the safety of the operation.

The heaviest piece of equipment, weighing 150 T and to be lifted to a height of over 50 meters high, posed a significant challenge. To maneuver such massive components within the confined space, Sarens decided to move one AC700 crane equipped with a luffing jib from our France department, another 450 T from the Netherlands, and a second AC700 cranes also equipped with a luffing jib. Complementing these were mobile cranes including a LTM1100, and LTM1110, each carefully selected to meet the demands of the task at hand.

The equipment was rigged using more than 20 transports. The mobilisation and demobilisation of equipment took around two days each. Additionally, the installation of the luffer jibs proved challenging due to the limited space, requiring precise engineering skills and careful coordination.

The transportation of the evaporator and separator, along with the smaller pieces, was facilitated by vessels, particularly navigating through small canals to reach the destination safely.

With the assistance of a skilled crew comprising more than 10 members, the lifts were completed in two days, causing minimum disruption to the people in the neighborhood.

According to Project Manager, Luc De Meester, “Even though there were challenges, the customer was happy with how well the project was done. This clearly demonstrates the professionalism and expert skills of our team. Congratulations to all!”

Digitalization is transforming SEKO’s core services.

This transformation is not only reshaping our services, but also enhancing the customer experience. Rapid advances in technology are having a profound impact on the supply chain, increasing efficiency through real-time data sharing, automation and smart technologies that help organizations manage risk, improve customer experience and gain a competitive advantage. As the market environment becomes even more challenging in 2024, adaptability and flexibility become critical.

The digitization of the supply chain is having a transformative impact on SEKO’s three core services: freight forwarding, e-commerce and white glove services. The process of transforming analog supply chain processes into digital ones is not only reshaping our services, but also enhancing our customer experience.

Our first pillar is our freight forwarding service, which is the import and export of general cargo. This service is generally business-to-business trade, i.e. standard sea, air and land transportation. The freight forwarding industry has been around for a long time, and SEKO BANSARD is revitalizing it through digitalization.

By digitizing the supply chain, you can bring new experiences to your customers, such as freight optimization, a process designed to increase efficiency and cost-effectiveness through route planning, load consolidation, and mode selection; intermodal transport, a way to seamlessly connect the various modes of freight transport; and standardization of services that fuel the foundation of a business.

Our second pillar is e-commerce. Our e-commerce services include 3PL (third-party logistics) fulfillment services, domestic parcel shipments, cross-border parcels, and returns. SEKO BANSARD has always been at the forefront of digital services, but here we focus on physical services, using robots and automation in our warehouses and continuing to push the boundaries of technology. We are using digitalization to improve efficiency and reduce costs through automated operations such as wave picking, where we group orders to be shipped according to certain characteristics, such as grouping all orders from the same carrier and picking multiple orders at a time, which can be much more efficient. SEKO BANSARD also has the ability to connect multiple platforms through API keys, which means that our customers have access to multiple suppliers.

Our third pillar is “White Glove”, which refers to our customized services for special needs. This pillar needs to be fully digitized, as compliance and integrity are extremely important to our white glove clients.

Typically, our white-glove customers ship pharmaceuticals, medical technology products and high-tech products, so it’s important to maintain the integrity of the goods, which we do through our control towers. We have built integrated logistics control towers around the world to standardize our services. We have recently launched SEKO Live, which allows customers to know exactly where their goods are and when they have been delivered. This makes our delivery records 100% error-free.
WHY IS TECHNOLOGY IMPORTANT?

Adaptability and flexibility in the supply chain are important. As the more challenging market conditions of 2024 approach, businesses need to be confident that they have a robust and reliable supply chain. The choice of partner is important, whether it’s nearshore outsourcing, helping to penetrate new markets, expanding your business, or maintaining the status quo, your partner needs to have the ability to adapt and be flexible.

In today’s world, the rapid advancement of technology has had a dramatic impact on the supply chain. With real-time data sharing, supply chain managers can keep abreast of the entire supply chain’s operations. The use of technology has also improved the efficiency of the supply chain, with automation and intelligent technology making the operation of each link more efficient. In addition, technology has helped companies better manage risks by predicting potential problems in advance through big data analysis and other means. Customer experience has also been enhanced as they can track the status of their orders more easily. Most importantly, technological innovations have given businesses a competitive edge, prompting them to offer more attractive products and services. Therefore, it can be said that technological developments are crucial to the supply chain, bringing it many benefits in terms of efficiency, risk management, customer experience and competitive advantage.

DEME’s flagship ‘Orion’ completed monopile installation works on Ocean Winds’ Moray West offshore wind farm project in Scotland.

Despite harsh winter conditions, DEME swiftly installed 29 monopiles in approximately two months. Meanwhile, DEME’s DP2 jack-up vessel ‘Apollo’ is installing the transition pieces.

The Moray West offshore wind farm, developed by Ocean Winds in Scotland’s Moray Firth, will generate 882 MW, powering over 1.3 million homes. A key industry milestone has been delivered by DEME installing the first complete foundations for near 15 MW turbines. Dedicated novel tools were deployed such as a Quad Vibro Hammer and pioneering bolting equipment for M90 bolts.

‘Orion’ transported the 29 monopiles, which weigh up to 2000 tonnes each, from the port of Invergordon and installed them in full DP mode, without the use of anchors. Orion’s specially designed and high-tech motion compensated pile gripper, in combination with its 5,000-tonne crane and vessel ballasting techniques, enabled efficient operations despite the notorious Scottish winter weather conditions.

The Vibro Hammer was used to overcome the risks of pile-runs, due to the combination of soft and hard soil layers. Afterwards the piles were hammered to the target depth with a hydraulic Impact Hammer. DEME’s jack-up vessel ‘Apollo’ is performing the transition piece installation which is expected to be finalised in the coming months. This efficient way of working accelerated and de-risked the schedule of the project which has a very limited installation period.

DEME’s success at Moray West wouldn’t have been possible without its international team of specialist engineers and crew, including the American crew members who became an integral part of the team. This highly skilled group gained valuable additional experience, which will be instrumental for upcoming offshore wind projects in US waters.

Ocean Winds Project Director Pete Geddes comments: “I am absolutely delighted with DEME Offshore’s performance whilst working on the Moray West project. They have executed the monopile installation campaign efficiently, professionally, and safely. DEME has been solution-focussed, flexible and proactive during the offshore construction campaign, and continue to be so during the ongoing TP installation campaign – well done DEME!”

Lucien Romagnoli, Business Unit Director UK, Ireland & Belgium at DEME Offshore, comments: “I am proud of our fantastic team and Orion’s impressive capabilities. With the deployment of the new installation technology, we were able to complete this part of the DEME scope smoothly and efficiently. It truly demonstrates Orion’s efficiency, particularly its double-stage motion-compensated gripper. We are eager to continue the momentum with ‘Apollo’ and seamlessly complete the transition piece installation, delivering another project to the full satisfaction of our client.”

Meanwhile ‘Orion’ has started its voyage across the Atlantic Ocean back to the United States, heading to its next project in Virginia.

Jan Klaassen, Business Unit Director Americas at DEME Offshore, adds: “I am looking forward to welcoming ‘Orion’ back in the US, this time in the great Commonwealth of Virginia. The ‘Orion’ is scheduled to arrive in the Port of Norfolk, Virginia in late April where she will prepare for the installation of 176 foundations on the Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind (CVOW) project for our client Dominion Energy. The combined technology of the Vibro Hammer and Impact Hammer will also be used on the CVOW project, in combination with state-of-the-art noise mitigation technologies to protect marine mammals.”
