In 2023, DEME achieved a record order book of €7.58 billion, representing a 22% increase, and expanded its total installed capacity in offshore wind to 14 GW, with over 1,200 MW of DEME's share (source: deme-group.com).
Recent Developments
In the past two years, DEME announced a revenue growth of 24% and an EBITDA increase of 26% to €596 million for 2023. The company also announced the acquisition of Havfram, a Norwegian offshore wind contractor, to strengthen its presence in the wind market. Additionally, DEME has introduced new vessels, such as the Viking Neptun and Green Jade, and is active in the US and Taiwan markets (source: deme-group.com).
