ABERDEEN, UKASCO will provide logistics services to support expansion of the freeport Teesworks in northeast England.

The work scope during the initial three years of the contract will include quayside planning and scheduling, operations coordination, vessel scheduling, stevedoring and internal distribution services.

The focus will be on Teesworks’ South Bank Heavy Lift Quay, which features a new 450-m quay to service the offshore energy sector.

ASCO expects work to start this summer, with the first vessel likely to berth in September.

Teesworks is being developed as an integrated energy hub for hydrogen, carbon capture and storage, and offshore wind projects, including monopile manufacturing by SeAH Wind.

Earlier this year, ASCO won contract extensions from UK North Sea majors with a combined value of more than £20 million ($25.35 million). The extensions from Centrica Energy Storage, TotalEnergies and bp will each run for up to three years.
