Langset will establish a mechanical workshop and move their engineering office and rope access headquarters to Hanøytangen. 

Semco Maritime acquired the Hanøytangen yard in mid-2015. The yard facilities hold the largest dry-dock facility in Northern Europe. Both parties expect the agreement to strengthen and improve offerings to customers and that the cooperation will increase the ambition to win future contracts for maintaining both offshore platforms and other maritime/marine projects. 

"The cooperation between Langset and Semco Maritime is beyond the usual and key competences, experience and strategy go hand-in-hand. It will strengthen both Hanøytangen Yard and Semco Maritime in general. This will give both parties a stronger market position which we expect our customers will find attractive," Lars Skov, Semco managing director said. 

"With this partnership, Langset will have it's own workshop strategically located in Western Norway. We expect the partnership with Semco Maritime to provide us with new knowledge, technology and access to new business areas. Together, Semco Maritime and Langset will strengthen the Hanøytangen yard's position as a complete supplier of offshore and marine services," Jan Tore, Langset CEO said.
