Peter Berdowski chief executive Boskalis

摘要

Once a pure-play dredging outfit, Boskalis is a very different beast nowadays, having evolved into an owner of semi-submersible heavy-lift vessels, offshore installation, cable lay and survey vessels. In short, during the time that Peter Berdowski has been chief executive, it has diversified so that it offers a range of services up and down - and right across - the supply chain. Most recently added to the Boskalis portfolio of capability is Gardline group, acquired by the Dutch company earlier this year. Gardline specialises in marine geophysical surveys, offshore geotechnical services and environmental surveys and with the acquisition, Mr Berdowski has thus fulfilled an ambition to build a position in the offshore survey market and become a specialist provider of geotechnical surveys for the offshore oil and gas and renewables markets.
