Last December 2019, Jumbo – the heavy lift shipping and offshore T&I contractor – awarded KENC with multiple engineering assignments. The scope entailed engineering and FEM calculations to prepare Jumbo’s ‘Fairplayer’ – a DP 2 heavy lift crane vessel (HLCV) – for an FPSO installation job offshore Brazil.
As we are rapidly growing, we’re looking for engineers to strengthen our team. >> Read more

OLDENZAAL, THE NETHERLANDS, 14th JANUARY 2020
KENC Engineering B.V. the engineering firm for the offshore energy industry has appointed Vincent Vinkoert as new Business Development Manager. This appointment underlines the ambitious growth plan of the Oldenzaal based company.
An optimistic outlook shared by Pieter van Oord last Wednesday 8th of January, at a fully packed IRO new years reception. A tremendous growth is expected. Oil and gas is recovering and the offshore wind market seems to get another boost, but with increasing competition. This definitely underlines the growth that KENC has been through. Full steam ahead!
KENC has designed a lift beam with a WLL of 200t for Breman Machinery in Genemuiden. Breman has fabricated the liftbeam for own use. The lift beam will be used in the newbuild manufacturing hall that offers space for Europe’s largest cutter bank, and has overhead cranes with a 320t lifting capacity. The light and compact design of the hoisting beam was possible thanks to detailed buckling calculations. The length of the lift beam is almost 12m, with a self-weight of only 12t. >> Read more

In the past year KENC has executed a number of major projects for well known customers. We were commissioned by Heerema to make workstations for the DCV Balder, resulting in safer and more efficient pipe laying. Another project was the development of a system enabling Van Oord to deposit rocks at greater depths. We have also engineered a pile grillage with seafastening for Jumbo Offshore, and for Boskalis we have made adjustments to a lifting hook for the Taklift4. In this Newsletter you can read about these projects in greater detail. >> Read more
2015 has been a good year. Since our first issue in 2014, KENC has been awarded several challenging large projects. During the past period Van Oord awarded KENC a design and fabrication equipment project for its Flexible Fall Pipe Vessel Stornes. This issue describes just one of the multiple sub-projects awarded: the design and fabrication of trolleys for the automated handling of flexible fall pipe buckets. >> Read more
