Peterson Energy Logistics has opened a new base in IJmuiden, expanding its offering for customers in the Southern North Sea.
Through acquiring the assets of Ymond Offshore Logistics B.V., Peterson has strengthened its position as the logistics and supply chain partner of choice for the Dutch offshore energy sector with a new strategically located facility.
Peterson, which also operates from Den Helder, is an established and trusted partner of the energy industry, responsible for the safe and efficient movement of people and goods critical to the success of offshore operations.
Mark Hol, head of commercial Netherlands at Peterson, said: “This expansion strengthens our position in the Dutch offshore supply chain and adds a unique location to our network.
“The strategic positioning of these facilities in IJmuiden enables us to serve our customers more closely and efficiently, including supporting offshore wind operations and maintenance bases for offshore wind customers in the area.
“IJmuiden is a welcome addition to our presence at a broad network of ports in the Netherlands and UK servicing offshore operations in the North Sea and further allows us to tailor the most effective end-to-end logistics solutions for our customers.”
Peterson IJmuiden officially launched on 1st October, and the team is recruiting for a local Business Lead Offshore to deliver upon the strategic objectives for the site.
The acquisition includes three warehouses – two of which are located directly at the quayside enabling customers to store goods and equipment in immediate proximity to offshore operations, a unique offering at the Port of IJmuiden. The third warehouse, known as the shore base, offers a large yard and indoor storage close to the quayside and is ideally suited for large equipment, mobilisations, and long-term storage.
The comprehensive service offering includes port agency and ship agency services, customs clearance, and stevedoring with its own equipment, as well as storage and handling services, vessel chartering, CTV campaign support, and related logistics solutions.
Peterson Energy Logistics is part of Royal Peterson and Control Union, a Dutch family-owned company which employs 6000 people across 80 countries, headquartered in Rotterdam.
