Wagenborg Celebrates 10 Years of Walk to Work Operations in the North Sea
Ten years ago, Wagenborg launched the ‘walk to work’ vessel KROONBORG to support offshore operations for NAM/Shell UK in the Southern North Sea. As the world's first walk to work vessel, KROONBORG revolutionized safe, reliable, and year-round offshore maintenance. Today, Wagenborg proudly marks its leadership in this niche, with five operational walk to work vessels in the Southern North Sea.

Masterful transport of immense lock gates by Wagenborg
For the construction of a new lock complex in Brunsbüttel, Germany, Wagenborg recently transported three new lock gates in Emden. On three consecutive days, these lock gates with a total weight of over 2,500 tons each were driven out of the manufacturing hall. For this, Wagenborg deployed no less than 136 axle lines of SPMT. In the course of this year, Wagenborg will ship the lock doors by pontoon to their final destination.
