Dismantling various kinds of offshore equipment 

Has your offshore rig reached the end of its life cycle? JRG is your go-to partner for both the dismantling and the recycling of oil and gas rigs, ships or other kinds of offshore structures. We can also take care of offshore wind farm decommissioning and recycling for you. What sets us apart is that we can also recycle wind turbine rotor blades.

 Offshore decom process: from dismantling to recycling

We will take care of the whole offshore decom process, from dismantling the structure to sorting, processing and recycling the materials recovered. Needless to say, we will minimise the environmental impact at all times. And we will also do all the paperwork for you. Here’s what our offshore decom process looks like:

Step 1 | First of all, we want to know all the technical details of the structure. We ask our clients lots of questions to find out everything there is to know about the structure.

Step 2 | Next, we write a project offer. Our proposal covers the kind of work we expect to be required and what procedure we will be using. It also lets you choose whether or not to maintain ownership of the offshore structure until it has been processed into secondary raw materials. That’s up to you.

Step 3 | This step is when you assess our proposal. If we are on the same wavelength, we will draft a contract and get started decommissioning your offshore structure.

Step 4 | The structure will be taken to our yard in Vlaardingen, where it will be dismantled. We sometimes engage a third party for that.

Step 5 | We sort all the materials recovered from the dismantled structure and check them for radioactivity. We recycle all the iron and non-ferrous materials ourselves by turning them into materials that are ready to be processed at a smelting plant.

Step 6 | We calculate the scrap value. The resulting amount will be paid into your bank account within three days of clearance.

Step 7 | You will receive a final report listing exactly what materials we have recycled and where they went. We always aim for a closed mass balance, i.e. to recycle as much of the metal as possible.

NOGEPA-certified

You can count them on the fingers of one hand: Dutch companies that have been audited by NOGEPA*. JRG is one of them. Take a look at all our certifications >

Liquid-proof dismantling yard with its own water purification system

Our dismantling yard in Vlaardingen is entirely liquid-proof, meaning that we can collect all liquids, i.e. both leaked oils and contaminated water. After collecting such liquids, we filter the water using our very own water purification system. Our system is of such good quality that we are allowed to discharge the purified water directly to the sewage system and/or the river. In short: we leave no stone unturned during the dismantling and recycling process to prevent environmental pollution and control risks.

The best price for your metals

Not only can you hire us for offshore decommissioning, you can also turn to us for the recycling of your metals into secondary raw material. Our recycling process is as efficient as it is meticulous, so as to make sure that no valuable materials are lost. Additionally, with our in-depth knowledge of ferrous metals and non-ferrous metals we can ensure that you always get the best price for your metals.
