NjordIC

NjordIC is an independent consultancy specialised in unexploded ordnance (UXO) risk management with a distinct focus on offshore and nearshore marine environments. Headquartered in the Netherlands, with international offices in Houston (NjordIC USA LLC) and Oldenburg (NjordIC GmbH), it supports organisations worldwide on offshore wind projects, subsea cable routes, dredging operations and maritime infrastructure. The company provides UXO desk studies, historical research, multidisciplinary UXO risk assessments, ALARP documentation, tender assistance, geophysical data analysis, UXO survey support, and full UXO management including EOD management, client representation, QA/QC, GIS and data management, and budget calculations. NjordIC acts as an independent UXO consultant and CS-OOO A-scope holder on projects such as TenneT’s Doordewind 1 & 2 grid connection, and has delivered UXO advice and clearance involvement on most Dutch and multiple German offshore wind projects, including EnBW’s He Dreiht offshore wind farm and the Zeevonk and Baltic offshore wind projects. NjordIC combines UXO expertise with dredging technology, hydrology, (geo)morphology, and coastal and port engineering to assess UXO risks holistically and define pragmatic mitigation strategies aligned with ALARP principles. It operates the NjordIC Remote Data Center in Basingstoke, UK, jointly owned with Key Geophysics Ltd, which provides near real-time processing and QA/QC of magnetometry, electromagnetic and acoustic survey data to reduce offshore specialist requirements and improve decision speed and traceability. NjordIC partners with government bodies, contractors and engineering firms, and is ISO 9001 certified. NjordIC BV holds Dutch CS-OOO A-scope certification and NjordIC GmbH holds German §7 authorisation for offshore UXO operations. An earlier profile reports annual turnover of approximately €500,000 and three specialist employees, and the firm has since expanded its partnership team.
