About us
We are in the business of energy.
And we are here to change it. Together.
Global energy transition:
Before "either or" comes "both"
To fulfill the vision of a fossil-free future, we need conventional and renewable energy sources to coexist effectively until the day when renewables can fully keep the world running. And since Semco Maritime is deeply rooted in the challenges of both the conventional energy sector and the offshore wind industry, we are in a unique position to bridge today's and tomorrow’s solutions. Driven by the challenge. Powered by innovation. And building on 40 years of dedication.
So while most people know why a sustainable energy transition is vital, we put our hearts and minds into the journey itself. How to get there. Constantly seeking clever and pragmatic ways to realise global energy ambitions and reach the next destination. And the next one after that.

Bridging today's and tomorrow’s energy solutions
A fossil-free future calls for a sustainable energy transition where conventional and renewable energy sources coexist effectively until the day when renewables can fully keep the world running.
Over the past 40 years, we have built up expertise as a multi-disciplined engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractor to the oil and gas industry and to this day we still make sure that oil and gas assets in the North Sea experience maximum uptime and smooth operation.
In 2001, Semco Maritime ventured into the offshore wind industry and is now also a well-known »world leader in offshore substations«. Since then we have provided competitive turnkey offshore wind electrical infrastructure solutions for more than 20 offshore substation projects. In the years to come, this experience will also be applied to the developing offshore wind markets in both Taiwan and the US.
From stove manufacturer to global project engineering
It all started in 1888, when Semler & Mathiassen, a castings and stove manufacturer opened for business. The company expanded rapidly, and ventured into new areas. But it wasn’t until 1945 that we began producing high-quality technical installations for the marine and ship-building industry.
In 1980, the company we know today, was born with the establishment of our first offshore business unit in Esbjerg. Since then, organic growth and acquisitions in Denmark, Norway and the UK have given Semco Maritime the capacity to handle even the largest of projects.
Today, we aim to be close to our global customers, and we have therefore established sales and service offices around the world. Find locations
Across the Semco-organisation we are a united team of highly qualified people dedicated to meeting customer expectations in projects, solutions, and manpower for the energy sector all over the world.
