“We have posted a historically high result in the first half of 2014 and the performance across the board of the company has been very good,” said Boskalis ceo Peter Berdowski.
“This result is partly thanks to the strategic choice we made to broaden our focus on offshore. The offshore activities are becoming increasingly important and the contribution of Dockwise forms a key part of this. But the traditional core dredging activities also made an excellent contribution to the results.”
