Shipowners hoping to save training costs, reduce risks and increase the efficiency of ISPS maritime security compliance can now take advantage of new, computer-based training from VIKING Saatsea.

Danish-based ingredients manufacturer Palsgaard A/S owes its highly successful portfolio of vegetable-based emulsifiers and stabilisers to sister company Nexus A/S, comprising a range of laboratories and functions with a common purpose: to continuously create new and innovative solutions to serve end-users worldwide – and to continuously refine existing emulsifier formulations to meet client-specific needs.

Removing toxic residues from power plant flue gases is as tough on equipment as it sounds. Known for having the toughest pumps in the business, DESMI is looking to take on more of the power plant challenge.

Is waste incineration slowing China’s rapid growth of waste? In a new series of articles, we explore waste management in China. This is the first article in the series.

In a series of articles, we explore waste management in China. In this second article, we look at how the Chinese cement industry can help solve a serious societal challenge.

As demands on offshore wind installation processes increase, crane technology is being pushed to its limits. Not only do offshore cranes need to lift heavier and larger wind turbine components, but they also need to operate in more gruelling weather conditions.

In simplest terms, an emulsifier is a substance that enables oil and water to mix.

A number of years ago, it was normal practice for offshore contractors to win major offshore wind turbine installation projects using non-propelled jack-up barges supported by tugboats and anchors for positioning. This was the established way – it was safe, reliable and efficient.

Maximum wind speeds have a significant influence on costs and time required for offshore wind turbine installation projects. The maximum wind speed is the speed at which it is no longer possible to lift major turbine components (nacelle, tower and blades) by a jack-up vessel. The restricting factors are crew safety and equipment damage due […]

The essence is our speciality within certain niches and that we aim to be the best in those niches. Our dredging background has given us knowhow within different areas, such as the seabed, sea conditions and other marine environment factors as well as the associated technologies.

Pump manufacturer DESMI’s Steve Godwin is looking very pleased. He’s standing on the deck of a naval ship, monitoring events closely as a helicopter hangs in the air just metres off the vessel’s port side, swaying gently in the relatively light easterly wind. As we watch, a line is winched down from the chopper to […]

The lifting process on jack-up vessels is a key process in any offshore wind turbine installation or maintenance project. Control systems such as tagline systems are a necessary part of the lifting setup.
