Rijnstroom

You asked for... We listened.

Introducing Rijnstroom

Offshore operations have changed. Projects became more complex. Crews needed better accommodation. Equipment became heavier. Sustainability became essential.

Over the years we kept hearing the same needs from our clients. So when we designed Rijnstroom, we didn’t start with a blank sheet of paper.

We started with what our clients asked for.

And then we added more.

Rijnstroom. Built by listening...

No vessel starts with a crane, an engine or a drawing. It starts with a conversation.

Over the years, we kept hearing the same questions from clients, project teams and crews. Projects became more complex. Operations had to be carried out more efficiently. Sustainability became a standard rather than an ambition. Crews needed more comfort during longer assignments, while offshore operations demanded greater flexibility than ever before.

Those conversations became the starting point for our new vessel Rijnstroom.

Not by simply adding more power or larger equipment, but by carefully considering what would truly make a difference in day-to-day operations.Every design choice serves a purpose. From the hybrid diesel-electric propulsion system and DP2 capability to the spacious accommodation for 27 crew members, the versatile deck layout and powerful lifting capacity. 

Together they create a vessel that is ready for today’s offshore challenges and tomorrow’s opportunities.

Designed and built in the Netherlands in close partnership with Kooiman Marine Group, the Rijnstroom combines Dutch craftsmanship with decades of operational experience. Built to the latest offshore standards, optimized for low energy consumption and compliant with IMO Tier III and ULEV requirements, she reflects our commitment to sustainable, future-ready operations.

The Rijnstroom is more than a new vessel. It is the next step in an ongoing process of listening, learning and improving. A vessel shaped by practical experience, built around real operational needs and ready to support projects around the world.

Because every feature on board started with the same question:

What do our clients need next?
