Thanks to the expertise, experience and reputation of its professionals and the high quality and efficiency of its naval and technical assets, despite its relatively recent history, NextGeo has been successfully involved in the completion of most of the major energy infrastructure projects in the EMEA region .

In 2020, to support a large offshore wind farm development plan in the eastern North Sea, NextGeo established a new operations base in the Netherlands with its operational headquarters in IJmuiden.
