Build and develop the bridges of the transition in the offshore renewables industry!

Who we are?

We are currently living in a time where the renewable energy portfolio is developing and growing rapidly. With the future of a more stringent European Trading Scheme, (offshore) renewables will become a pivotal part of the energy supply source to an increasingly fluctuating supply of energy. Synchronization in demand, energy balancing, storage and a stable solid grid are essential. Exciting times are ahead - CrocWorks is an innovative service and solution provider and we can provide you with a a smooth transition to a new era of sustainable energy supply for our next generation. With passion, devotion, can-do attitude and motivation

CrocWorks provides the engineering solutions related to the design and installation of flexibles power and communication networks (cables) in all offshore renewable power plant life stages: Development, Engineering, Construction, Installation, Operation & Maintenance, Decommissioning & Reuse.

CrocWorks has over 13 years of expertise on wind energy investments and technology related to the design and installation of subsea infrastructure (flexibles, cables for power and communication). With our extensive experience and understanding in gasses, pressure and velocity (e.g. CO2 and H2) together with electricity solutions and innovations, CrocWorks can revolutionise the transition towards a solid green energy system.

Our extensive international track record equips us with invaluable experience and knowledge of worldwide wind power production, and we are able to combine different experiences and lessons learnt and individually tailor solutions for our clients bespoke needs. It is of key importance to take the local environmental, political, economical and cultural circumstances into account.

Pillars.

CrocWorks naming origins from the Crocodilia, the taxonomy order where crocodiles belong to. They first appeared 95 million years ago and evolved and adapted themselves to nowadays a predator on top of the food chain; ruling fresh waters, salt waters and many shores around our globe! Crocodiles like all cold blooded species are known for their energy efficient metabolism. Crocodiles developed throughout those million years of evolution a perfect set of sensors, making them able to perfectly hear, see and feel subsea and in air. It makes them highly effective and efficient hunters on top of the food chain.

Passionate

Crocs truly love a challenge, we are passionate and dedicated in making our world more efficient and greener.

Visionary

Translate occurrences to causes and solutions. Sharp sensing makes crocs the perfect predators for the right solutions.

Innovation

With 95 million years of experience, crocs use their experience and knowledge. Due to their adaptative skills, crocs experience problems and challenges as possibilities and develop these into opportunities

Efficient

Do not waste resources unnecessarily. Crocs are used to working efficiently, providing solutions where the necessary resources over the life cycle are efficiently (re)used.

Our mission

Our goal is to work closely with our clients worldwide, providing technical and commercial expertise to find solutions for the different challenges related to subsea power and communication cables, reduce the costs, risks and to improve the efficiencies and the return on wind power plant investments. CrocWorks bridges the gap between technical, safety, health, quality, environmental, commercial, planning and legal matters. “WeConnect” these different ‘worlds’. Only by taking a holistic approach, an offshore wind power plant investment as a whole can be optimized, cables and flexibles are the crucial and vital link.
