Expanding into the offshore cable market
Combifloat acquired Oceanteam Solutions in 2023, marking a significant strategic entry into the offshore cable handling and logistics solutions market. This acquisition allows Combifloat to enhance its portfolio with an additional brand, offering a broader set of equipment and services dedicated to the offshore renewable and subsea oil & gas market. Oceanteam Solutions, which has been active since 2007, brings extensive experience in the transportation, storage, and handling of power cables and umbilicals for the offshore energy industry.
As part of Combifloat’s strategic entry into the offshore cable market, investment and restructuring plans are being implemented to support the industry with tailored equipment and flexible solutions globally. Oceanteam Solutions currently owns multiple carousels and ancillary equipment and operates a deep-water port and offshore base in the Netherlands.
Combifloat’s strategy for Oceanteam focuses on rejuvenating the brand and leveraging its existing assets to drive growth. This includes enhancing the design, engineering, and fabrication of carousels and supporting equipment, as well as expanding the rental and logistic support services. By applying Combifloat’s unique business model, which leverages global reach and capital deployment, the company aims to play an active role in shaping the future of the offshore cable market.
The acquisition of Oceanteam aligns with Combifloat’s broader strategy of clustering and developing opportunities in geographies with high potential. This approach is part of Combifloat’s ambition to lead in niche markets by increasing market presence and relevancy through strategic acquisitions and partnerships. The integration of Oceanteam into Combifloat’s operations is expected to enhance the company’s ability to provide scalable and efficient solutions, driving sustainable growth and innovation in the offshore energy sector.
With highly qualified and specialized in-house engineers, Combifloat offers various engineering services to guide and support clients on operational and environmental matters.
