DEME is proud to set a new benchmark in the maritime sector!💚 DEME has achieved Level 3 under the new CO₂ Performance Ladder 4.0 (CO2-Prestatieladder), which rewards DEME’s efforts to map and reduce carbon emissions with a competitive advantage in public tenders. This is the highest possible level. This achievement means we’re among the first major dredging and construction companies in the Benelux to meet the more stringent requirements of the updated CO₂ Performance Ladder. ✅ Full visibility on our emissions, including scopes 1, 2 and 3 ✅ A clear, independently verified roadmap for the Benelux towards climate neutrality by 2050 ✅ Strong collaboration with partners across our value chain to reduce CO₂ This milestone enables DEME to make informed, low-carbon choices across our projects. And we can work more closely with our customers and partners to reduce emissions, and remain ahead of our industry’s increasingly strict sustainability requirements. #sustainability #CO2performanceladder #climateneutrality

DEME has secured a substantial contract for the transport and installation of foundations for Phase 1 of the Zeevonk offshore wind farm in the Netherlands, a project jointly developed by Vattenfall and Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners. The scope includes the transport and installation of 69 monopile foundations, marshalling services for primary and secondary steel, and scour protection works. Several vessels from DEME’s fleet will be involved, including floating offshore transport & installation vessel Orion for monopile installation. Once completed, Zeevonk will provide approximately 1 GW of offshore wind capacity, supporting the Netherlands' energy transition ambitions. 👉Read more in the press release: www.deme-group.com #offshorewind #zeevonk #thenetherlands

🎨⚓ Fallpipe vessel Flintstone, looking as good as new After spending time in drydock in Kristiansand (Norway), Flintstone is getting ready to return to operations, following extensive maintenance and a fresh new coat of paint. The docking also highlighted the pride Flintstone’s crew takes in their vessel. From helping define the scope of the works to rolling up their sleeves during the execution, they played an active role throughout the docking. Around ten crew members even took on the deck painting themselves, demonstrating the ownership, dedication and teamwork that characterize life on board. This docking was made possible through close collaboration between the crew, shore-based teams and the team at GOT, whose support helped turn extensive preparation into a successful execution. A big thank you to everyone involved in helping prepare Flintstone for her next chapter. #Teamwork #Maritime #Offshore #DryDock #OneDEMEOneTeam #GOTNORWAY #SafeYards

Back in the German North Sea, our offshore installation vessel Orion has successfully installed the first foundation at Vattenfall's Nordlicht 1, marking the start of the foundation installation campaign for what is set to become Germany’s largest offshore wind farm. The campaign includes 68 monopiles and transition pieces, with monopiles reaching up to 80.5 meters in length and weighing up to 1,290 tons. The Nordlicht wind farm area is located 85 kilometers north of the island of Borkum in the German North Sea and consists of two separate locations: Nordlicht 1 and Nordlicht 2. In 2027, DEME will also transport and install 44 foundations for Nordlicht 2. #offshorewind #nordlicht EEW Group

DEME is further strengthening its dredging fleet with the order of a new 22,000 m³ trailing suction hopper dredger. Designed for capital and maintenance dredging, land reclamation and offshore seabed preparation, this next-generation vessel will deliver higher productivity while reducing both greenhouse gas intensity and the cost per dredged cubic meter. This substantial investment is another important step in future-proofing our fleet and responding to the growing demand for efficiency, sustainability and technological innovation across our global dredging activities.

A major milestone reached at the Dieppe–Le Tréport offshore wind farm. Less than a year after the first jacket foundation was installed in September 2025, all 62 jacket foundations are now in place. Installed by our jack-up offshore installation vessel Innovation, the campaign involved 32 rotations between the port of Cherbourg and the offshore site, highlighting the scale of the logistics and coordination behind a project of this magnitude. The jackets were installed on the 248 pin piles previously installed by our jack-up offshore installation vessel Apollo. This milestone reflects the close cooperation between all partners and stakeholders involved throughout the project. Strong coordination, careful planning and the dedication of teams onshore and offshore have been essential to delivering this achievement safely and successfully.

DEME and The Oyster Restoration Company have joined forces to deliver EuroReefs, a large-scale offshore project to restore native European flat oyster reefs in the Belgian North Sea. Last week, 1,800 natural and biodegradable clay bricks, carrying more than one million European flat oyster spat, were installed on the seabed. The reef elements were loaded in the port of Ardersier (Scotland) and transported and installed using DEME’s split hopper barge Vlaanderen VIII, supporting the development of a healthy, reproducing reef in the Belgian North Sea. The project, commissioned by Belgium’s Federal Public Service Health, Food Chain Safety and Environment and funded by NextGenerationEU, marks an important step in bringing back oyster reefs at scale, in support of Belgium’s marine restoration goals, as reflected in a statement by Annelies Verlinden, Minister in charge of the North Sea. Moving beyond the pilot phase into industrial scale, the project aims to enhance marine biodiversity, improve water filtration and stabilize the seabed. By combining offshore engineering and logistics with ecological expertise, we are enabling reef restoration at scale in the North Sea.

As our story moves into the late 1930s, progress becomes increasingly shaped by the realities of a world at war. Large-scale projects continue under pressure. Fleets are confiscated, vessels are lost or forced to flee - and behind it all are people working in uncertain and often dangerous conditions, keeping essential works moving despite constant disruption. It’s a chapter defined by resilience — of both operations and the crews who made them possible. This week, we share three stories from that period: 🔷 Pointe-Noire – large-scale dredging under wartime constraints 🔷 Fleet confiscated – infrastructure under pressure from occupying forces 🔷 Vessels under fire – crews facing loss and uncertainty at the outbreak of war Discover the full stories on our anniversary website: 👉 https://lnkd.in/e3RrHPX6 #DEME150 #anniversary

Benefiting from the current good weather conditions, offshore works on the Princess Elisabeth Island are steadily progressing: the 17th caisson has been installed in the North Sea. 🌊⚓ Each caisson installed brings us closer to completing this pioneering artificial energy island, located 45 km off the Belgian coast. This could be delivered through the strong collaboration between DEME Group and Jan De Nul Group (TM Edison) on behalf of Elia Group Belgium. A big thank you to all teams involved for their dedication and commitment in safely delivering this ambitious project. 👏 #PrincessElisabethIsland #EnergyTransition #OffshoreWind #Engineering #Collaboration #Sustainability
