the construction of the storm surge barrier was so large - scaled and complicated that it could not be left to one single building contractor. no single building contractor could promise that the dam could be finished for a fixed price and within a certain period of time. therefore, a so - called ‘framework contract’ was drawn up, consisting of a general framework which could be filled up in a later stadium. in 1977, the ministry of waterways and public works concluded a contract with the oosterschelde storm surge barrier building combination (in dutch: ‘dosbouw’). this combination was formed on september 1st, 1976 by eleven building contractors :
some of the ships that were used during the construction, were owned by the combination (‘jan heymans’ and ‘johan v’). other ships were built under the authority of the ministry of waterways and public works (the condensation pontoon ‘mytilus’, the mat installer ‘cardium’, the lifting ship ‘ostrea’ and the mooring pontoon ‘macoma’). dosbouw was located at the port in burghsluis and was removed after the completion of the barrier on the 30th october 1986. the purchase of building materials remained outside the contract and was directly arranged with the suppliers from within and outside the country. a separate framework contract was concluded with the combination of construction companies oosterschelde (also called ‘ostem’), for the construction of the closure materials, such as the slides .

the history of volker stevin goes back to 1854, when adriaan volker set up as an independent building contractor in sliedrecht. his business soon grew and undertook larger assignments such as the excavation of the nieuwe waterweg. as early as 1880 adriaan volker took the first steps on the route to internationalisation. the business continued to grow and acquired a number of dutch and foreign companies. in december 1970 three building companies decided to join forces under the name stevin groep: van hattum en blankevoort (established in 1831), boele & van eesteren and van splunder. these individual companies also had a long history .
in 1972 the now
royal
company was turned into koninklijke adriaan volker groep, as an umbrella organisation of an extensive group of companies in the netherlands and abroad. in 1978 came the merger with the stevin groep to form koninklijke volker stevin. the stevin groep was also the result of a merger .
in 1991 the dredging activities of royal volker stevin came to an end. the kondor wessels groep was founded in 1990 from a merger of the listed ibb kondor company and the wessels family business. ibb kondor started out in 1969 from an integration of ingenieurs bureau voor bouwnijverheid nv and aannemingsmaatschappij de kondor nv, whose own history goes back to the early 1900s. both companies were active in housing, commercial and industrial building and redevelopments. in order to maintain and consolidate its position in the ever changing building market ibb kondor looked for a strong partner in the early 1990s and found this in the wessels groep. the history of this family business began in 1933 when arend wessels, a carpenter from rijssen, decided to become a building contractor. in 1968 his son dik wessels took over the running of the company. the company prospered and became a large and versatile construction group with operations both inside and outside the netherlands. in the year 1997 royal volker stevin, which was particularly active in infrastructure, and kondor wessels, specialised in building and property development, bundled their strengths and royal volker wessels stevin nv becomes a fact .

volkerstevin was originally founded in the uk in 1934 and has remained part of the same parent company ever since. originally, as harbour & general works ltd, the company undertook mainly marine works .
the portfolio of services has expanded considerably over the years and, to reflect this change in profile, the company was renamed volkerstevin ltd in 2003 .
van hattum' s harbour works was formed in the uk by van hattum en blankevoort, a major dutch dredging and civil engineering company who had been involved in many of the largest civil engineering projects in holland over their 100 year history. in 1937 the company' s name was changed to harbour and general works limited to reflect the more general nature of work being undertaken .
in 1970, three dutch building companies (including van hattum en blankevoort) decided to join forces under the name stevin groep. in 1972, the now' royal' company was turned into koninklijke adriaan volker groep, as an umbrella organisation of an extensive group of companies in the netherlands and abroad. the year 1978 saw the merger with the stevin group to form koninklijke volker stevin .
in 1991 the dredging activities of royal volker stevin came to an end. royal volker stevin, which was particularly active in infrastructure, and kondor wessels, specialising in building and property development, combined their strengths and royal volker wessels stevin nv was formed in 1997 .

vialis was founded in 1999 by the merger of nederland haarlem and volker stevin systems. in 2001, nma railway signalling joined vialis. after 1999, vialis expanded with locations in belgium, poland and the far east .
the history of nederland haarlem goes back to 1925. during that year, factory and trading company ‘nederland’ was registered in the commercial register of haarlem. later, the name of the family company was changed into nederland haarlem .
in 2001, vialis expanded with nma railway signalling. this company already existed in 1879, with the foundation of the ‘alkmaarsche ijzer - en metaalgieterij’, later called the ‘nederlandse machinefabriek alkmaar’ (nma). from 1960 to 1991, nma was part of the electronics company phillips. in 1991, the organisation became independent under the name nma holding, with nma railway signalling as one of their operating companies. in 2007, tpa merged with vialis .

in the late 2000’s, visser & smit hanab noticed a worldwide need to diversify energy sources and protect and maintain the integrity of offshore cables. with a higher global population and concern about environmental impact, visser & smit hanab wanted to leverage the potential in sustainable offshore energy sources .
in 2013, boskalis acquired a 50% stake in vsmc. by joining forces, vsmc was able to leverage its existing resources and assets with those of boskalis, allowing them to fulfil even larger contracts, and to draw on the power of two successful companies .
in 2014, vsmc was renamed vbms. vbms is now an established subsea installation provider with a yearly turnover of approx. €250 million, offering total subsea power installation solutions for offshore grids, onshore and in shallow and deep water .

on saturday 6 march 2010, mrs bianca balkenende - hoogendijk christened the ship' stemat spirit' in rotterdam. the ‘stemat spirit' is a unique cable laying ship that will be deployed in the construction of offshore windmill parks, in other words, in support of sustainable energy generation .
the new ship is 90 metres in length and 28 metres wide and was specifically built for laying high voltage cables at sea, for example from shore to offshore windmill parks. it is unique in its capabilities, because it is able to maintain its position by means of propulsion (dynamic positioning), as well as anchors. furthermore, it can dry out on the shallows and is consequently suited for offshore operations (deep water) as well as near - shore operations (shallow water) .
the existing fleet of cable installation ships was primarily built for deep water operations and is not suitable for bringing cables to land. these ships are also unsuitable for operating in the neighbourhood of the many sandbanks found in northwest europe. it is precisely these sites that are being selected for the construction of offshore windmill parks. furthermore, the ‘stemat spirit' is not only capable of laying cables on the sea bottom; it is also capable of burying them using a cable tackle plough, for example .
the stemat spirit is equipped for carrying out various types of projects, such as the installation of export cables to connect offshore windmill parks with the onshore power grid, array cables that interconnect the individual cables of offshore windmill parks, interconnectors (subsea cables that connect the power grids of different countries) and the repair and maintenance of existing cables .
in the future, the ship can also be deployed for the repair and maintenance of existing cables and for the installation of undersea cables for the new generation of green power that uses technology based on tides or waves .

i am very pleased to report that our net result from continuing operations increased by 112% to € 36 million over the reporting period. of the € 19 million improvement versus the same period in 2016, € 7 million is the result of the change in our capital structure (resulting in lower interest charges) and € 12 million is the result of improved operational performance .
our ebitda improved to € 90 million (up 20% from € 75 million), the semi - annual ebitda margin increased 50 basis points to 3. 4% . despite upward pressure on the cost of sub - contractors and certain raw materials in our construction & real estate development segment, rising housing prices continue to have a positive effect on our real estate development business and as such mitigates the impact of the increased cost of construction. as highlighted during our ipo, competition remains fierce in our infrastructure segment in the netherlands. our strong backbone of smaller projects remains, however, a key differentiator. energy & telecom infrastructure as well as our international businesses show a stable development .
our net debt position at 30 june improved by € 174 million to € 103 million. this improvement is the net result of (i) the sale of the off - shore division in 2016 (payment received on 4 july 2016), (ii) the continued profitability of the company in h2 2016 and h1 2017, (iii) the acquisition of kwh at the end of 2016, (iv) our continued focus on working capital and (v) dividend payment of € 83 million on 4 may 2017. our solvency improved by 370 basis points to 30. 0% .
focus continues to be on winning profitable new business, reducing our failure costs and making selective bolt - on acquisitions to strengthen our local leadership positions. we are confident that our ebitda and net result from continuing operations for the full year will increase. ”
