In detail
How this segment is brokered
Cable handling is a system, not a component
Carousels, tensioners, routing systems and overboarding chutes only work as a coherent set. Sourcing them piecemeal usually means paying back the integration cost later. Dockstr scopes them as a system from the first conversation.
Where a project needs equipment outside our core partnerships, we say so and source it through the wider network.

Wind-led demand and what it changes
Inter-array and export cable lay volumes for offshore wind have re-shaped the market. Larger cable diameters, higher tensioner capacity and faster mobilisation cycles are now the norm.
Oil and gas field development and interconnector projects run parallel demand, with different cable specs and mobilisation profiles. The desk speaks to lay contractors, EPC contractors and developer-owned crews across all three markets.

FAQ
Common questions
Which OEMs and manufacturers do you work with?
Dockstr holds direct partnerships with leading cable handling manufacturers, with the network expanding. Where a project requires equipment outside our core partnerships, we engage the wider OEM market and return options. The desk is not tied to a single brand.
Can you source equipment outside your core partner network?
Yes. Where a project spec falls outside our direct partnerships, we say so and source through the wider manufacturer network. Buyers get a straight answer on what we hold and what we find.
How do you handle projects that need equipment from multiple manufacturers?
We scope the full requirement from the first conversation and engage across the relevant OEMs in parallel. The buyer receives a consolidated package quote, not separate conversations with separate suppliers.
What geographies do you cover for new equipment supply?
Global. Dockstr operates across 60+ countries with 9,000+ companies in network. Manufacturer partnerships cover European and global markets, with logistics and commissioning support included where applicable.
