IHC Sea Steel supplies a wide range of subsea installation and positioning frames, and IHC Fundex Equipment designs, manufactures and delivers multifunctional foundation rigs worldwide.

IHC CEO Bram Roelse said: "This merger was the next logical step in our desire to quickly respond to clients’ requirements. In this way we further strengthen this vital part of our activities and create room for further growth."

Earlier this year, IHC acquired Dutch deck equipment designer and manufacturer SAS Offshore, which it hopes will bolster its presence as a supplier of reliable integrated offshore systems and integrated vessels in the sector.

In addition, the company also purchased a majority stake in Brazil-based Brastec Technologies, which fully owns SAS Offshore.
