Broekman teams from Project Logistics, Broekman Shipping Rotterdam and Broekman Eemshaven Services joined forces to carry out a well‑coordinated towage operation involving three barges along the Rotterdam–Eemshaven route.
The barges were equipped with cable‑lay materials used for the installation of electrical cables in the Wadden Sea. Each unit measured 60 × 16 × 3 metres, with an airdraft of up to 14.5 metres and a gross tonnage of 775 GT.
To ensure a safe and efficient transit, tugboats remained on standby while our teams closely monitored readiness and weather conditions. Once a suitable weather window was confirmed, the towage operation proceeded smoothly and according to plan.
This project is a strong example of how our marine services and project logistics capabilities are seamlessly integrated — enabling us to manage complex operations from preparation through to successful delivery.
