Lamor chosen to operate EMSA’s North Sea equipment assistance service stockpile
The European Marine Safety Agency (EMSA) has awarded Lamor with a two-year contract to operate their Equipment Assistance Service (EAS) stockpile in the Netherlands. The stockpile complements national preparedness and assists oil spill response operations at request in the North Sea region, covering eastern coastlines and sea areas of Norway, Denmark, Germany and the Benelux. The contract includes two two-yearly renewal options.
EMSA offers services to assist EU/EFTA member States for responding quickly, effectively and efficiently to marine oil pollution incidents from ships as well as oil and gas installations.
The Equipment Assistance Service (EAS) consists of stand-alone oil pollution response equipment stockpiles in selected areas around Europe. This service complements the response capacity available through EMSA’s network of oil spill response vessels. The EAS equipment is on stand-by, ready to be mobilised around-the-clock anywhere in European waters and shared sea basins.
Following a request for assistance, the maximum mobilisation time required is 12 hours. In addition to the equipment, the requesting party can also hire technical support personnel to assist with the equipment familiarisation.
This is the second EAS contract for Lamor. The northernmost EMSA EAS Northern Baltic Sea, located in Finland, has been managed and operated by Lamor since 2019.
“We are delighted that our offer has been selected for this EAS”, says Magnus Miemois, Lamor’s Senior Vice President Eurasia. “For Lamor it is seen as an award for our continuous commitment to assist our customers with high level reliable service.”
EMSA has a total of five equipment assistance service stockpiles around the coastlines of Europe.
Lamor has decades of experience in innovation and know-how of oil spill response technology and prevention. Its abilities have proven reliable in some of the world’s harshest environments. Lamor’s technology and services help to protect sensitive sea areas and coasts from the negative effects of potential oil spill.

Lamorille viiden öljyntorjuntapuomikontin tilaus Kroatiasta14.5.2024 11:00:00 EEST | Tiedote
Lamor Corporation Oyj Lehdistötiedote 14.5.2024 klo 11.00 Lamorille viiden öljyntorjuntapuomikontin tilaus Kroatiasta Kroatian meri-, liikenne- ja infrastruktuuriministeriö on tilannut Lamorilta viisi puomikonttia, joiden arvo on yhteensä noin miljoona euroa. Lamor on jo aiemmin toimittanut Kroatiaan kolme puomikonttia, joiden kanssa puomikokonaisuus yltää neljän kilometrin pituuteen. Puomeja käytetään merellä vahinkotilanteissa, joissa vuotaa öljyä. Ne suojaavat Kroatian meri- ja ranta-alueita saastumiselta, sillä ne estävät öljyn leviämisen ja helpottavat sen korjaamista merestä. Kroatia sijaitsee Adrianmeren itärannikolla. Alue on etenkin kesäaikaan suosittu kohde veneille ja risteilyaluksille. Merellä havereihin liittyy aina öljyvahingon riski. Jos öljy pääsisi leviämään rajoittamatta, se voisi aiheuttaa vakavaa vahinkoa Kroatian vesialueille ja ympäristölle sekä alueen turismille. Sen tähden Kroatian valtio kehittää valmiuttaan uusilla öljyntorjuntavälineillä. ”Lamorilla on vuosik

In case of an average at sea, there is always a risk of oil spill from a damaged vessel present. Should an oil spill occur and spread uncontrolled, it could cause serious harm to Croatian waters
Lamor perustaa uuden toimipisteen öljyntorjuntalaitteiden vuokraus- ja logistiikkakeskukseksi Hollantiin tehostaakseen laitteiden globaalia saatavuutta13.5.2024 12:00:00 EEST | Tiedote
Lamor Corporation Oyj Lehdistötiedote 13.5.2024 klo 12.00 Lamor perustaa uuden toimipisteen öljyntorjuntalaitteiden vuokraus- ja logistiikkakeskukseksi Hollantiin tehostaakseen laitteiden globaalia saatavuutta Lamor perustaa uuden logistiikkakeskuksen Werkendamiin Hollantiin. Laajan, lähes 3.000 neliön öljyntorjuntateknologiavaraston avajaiset ovat toukokuun lopussa. Keskuksessa sijaitsevat myös Lamorin asiakaspalvelu ja Benelux-maiden asiakkaisiin keskittyvä myyntikonttori. Uusi logistiikkakeskus sijaitsee 30 minuutin päässä Rotterdamista. Sijainti tarjoaa nopean pääsyn eurooppalaiseen ja tarvittaessa myös globaaliin kuljetusverkostoon. Öljyntorjunnassa nopeus ratkaisee – mitä nopeammin laitteet saadaan paikan päälle, sitä parempi lopputulos saavutetaan sekä eri osapuolten että ympäristön kannalta. Lamor tavoittelee uuden keskuksen myötä myös pienempää hiilijalanjälkeä, koska kuljetuksista muodostuvia päästöjä voidaan sen avulla optimoida. Lamorin uusi keskus tarjoaa öljyntorjuntatekn
