New Head of Marine
1 February, Alexander Enström joined world-leading coatings manufacturer Hempel to lead its new global marine organisation, as Hempel looks to build on its leadership position in the marine industry.
Cable Solution for Eco-Sustainable Reuse of Offshore Platforms
Novacavi has recently made its own technological-productive contribution to the mineral growth test started for the platform protection from corrosion and to favour colonization by marine organisms on the ENI “Viviana 1” platform, offshore Pineto (Abruzzo).
With a strategic ambition to double revenue by 2025, Hempel is keen to build on its leadership position in the marine segment. Hempel is already the global leader in fuel-saving hull coatings and fuel-efficiency monitoring services, which help marine customers reduce fuel costs and radically lower their carbon footprint. The company is now adjusting its marine organisation to ensure it can better serve global marine customers with the full range of coatings and services.
Alexander Enström has been appointed to head up Hempel’s new global marine organisation, he started on 1 February 2021.
As Hempel Vice President and Head of Marine, Alexander will be a member of Hempel’s Operational Management Board, responsible for Hempel’s marine business.
Alexander has more than 14 years of experience in the coatings industry. He brings specialist skills to Hempel’s team, as well as vast knowledge of marine coatings and the marine industry.
For this specific activity within the PlaCE project (https://bluegrowth-
place.eu/) that involves the eco- sustainable reuse of offshore platforms, Novacavi has designed and provided an ad hoc solution to connect and make efficient the electrified growth structure submerged in the sea at a depth of about 20m. As integral part of this equipment, the 2XM518 water blocked low voltage underwater cable with high resistance to breakage and dynamic stresses due to constant immersion in water.
“Novacavi is pleased to have contributed to the development of innovative strategies and technologies for the decommissioning and possible reuse of offshore platforms, which combine industrial needs with the protection of the marine environment.” said Francesca Faverio, Business Development Manager, Novacavi.
Specialist in custom cable design & manufacturing for advanced technology since 1975, NOVACAVI develops any cable solutions with engineering expertise, comprehensive knowledge of materials and a high degree of manufacturing.
The new office is located at Manchester Airport and is fully operational.
“The new office in Manchester provides good opportunities for growth in both imports and exports and brings us much closer to the market and to our customers. Many industries export large volumes from here, giving us a good basis for growing the pipeline and for future growth through increased local commercial efforts and in collaboration with our global Greencarrier network.” Says Adrian Frodsham, Head of Air and Ocean.
Customers can rest assured that the new office in Manchester will be able to provide high- quality service, as specialists and experienced employees are ready to serve the customer needs. By this step, Greencarrier Freight Services keeps growing its airfreight and sea freight operations in the North of England.
“The opening of our new office is in line with our business strategy and will strengthen our position in the UK. It’s also in line with our high ambitions to grow the UK market,” says Chris Hunt, Managing Director.
