Integrated marine foundation installation services
Informed by decades of experience, we deliver efficient, reliable marine foundation installation services that reduce offshore risk, lower project costs and ensure schedule certainty. By combining Menck, Acteon’s Marine Foundations business line’s piling and drilling expertise, with advanced tooling and smart integration, we help offshore developers move from plan to execution – safely, rapidly and with greater confidence.
Years combined experience and world record deepwater installations (WD 2,120m)
We act in the most challenging conditions
Our foundation installation services support major offshore energy projects around the world, providing safe, efficient and future-ready delivery from seabed to surface.
Maximising efficiency for offshore operations
We optimise deck layouts, integrate equipment and deploy multi-skilled crews to reduce personnel on board (POB), vessel time and double handling. Our joined-up approach means faster mobilisation, leaner campaigns and greater value from every offshore day.
Delivering reliability in complex environments
Our tooling and techniques are proven in extreme conditions, from difficult seabeds to ultradeep water. With proprietary systems like our deep-water hammer and drive–drill–drive method, we deliver robust, reliable foundations that keep projects moving safely and on schedule.
Driving down costs with smarter data
We reduce total installed cost through smarter technology, digital integration, and intelligent design. Through early engagement and leveraging local logistics know-how, we develop solutions that reduce operational complexity and cost, without compromising on performance or integrity.
Driven pile installation services
Reliable, high-performance driven pile solutions
We deliver fast, effective driven pile installations for offshore foundations, jackets and mooring systems. Our fleet includes a wide range of hydraulic hammers, from 100 to 6250 kJ, and advanced lifting tools, like Rocksteady, enabling time and cost savings. Designed for precision and rapid deployment, our systems reduce vessel time, environmental impact and installation risk, even in challenging or ultradeep offshore environments. Available with flexible delivery models, our technology and expertise support efficient, cost-effective execution across a wide range of offshore energy projects.
Our technology
We combine advanced tooling with proven offshore methods to maximise driven pile success and minimise environmental impact.

Drilled pile installation services
Precision drilling for challenging offshore conditions
We deliver specialist drilled pile installation services where driven methods alone are unsuitable or where ground conditions demand greater control. Our drilling systems support a wide range of pile sizes, foundation types and seabed conditions, including hard rock and complex geology.
Our technology
Our integrated drilling systems improve control, reduce risk and maximise efficiency in demanding offshore conditions. Our products include: grout bags for pipeline span free rectification, pile upending systems and pinned lifting tools.

Grouting services
Reliable structural connections, delivered offshore
We provide engineered offshore grouting services for monopiles, jackets, pin piles, drilled sockets, transition pieces and other marine foundation connections. Our modular mixing, pumping and monitoring systems support controlled grout production and placement, backed by rigorous quality control and full material traceability.
Lifting and handling services
Safer, more controlled offshore handling
We deliver specialist lifting and handling services for offshore foundations, from connection and upending through to positioning, levelling and release. Our engineered tools and handling systems are configured around the component, vessel and installation sequence to reduce manual intervention, improve control and help shorten lift cycles.
Our Integrated Approach
One partner. One team. One coordinated foundation installation.
Offshore foundation installation is a complex process involving multiple disciplines, specialist equipment and highly coordinated offshore operations. Traditionally, these activities are delivered by separate subcontractors, creating multiple interfaces that can increase project complexity, programme risk and administrative effort.
Menck can take a different approach.
By integrating engineering, drilling, driven pile installation, lifting & handling and grouting under a single delivery model, we provide clients with one coordinated team responsible for the complete marine foundation installation scope. From early project planning through to offshore execution, every activity is planned together to improve efficiency, simplify communication and reduce project risk.
Rather than optimising individual work packages, we optimise the entire installation sequence, helping projects progress more safely, efficiently and predictably.
Why integrate?
One dedicated project manager coordinates engineering, planning, logistics and offshore operations, providing a clear point of contact throughout the project lifecycle.
Simplify procurement and commercial management with one contract covering multiple foundation installation disciplines, reducing contractual complexity and improving accountability.
Fewer contractors mean fewer handovers, fewer communication gaps and better coordination between engineering and offshore execution.
Integrated planning allows specialist teams and equipment to be deployed more efficiently, reducing offshore personnel requirements, vessel congestion and HSE exposure.
Engineering, drilling, piling, lifting and grouting are planned as one coordinated operation, helping minimise vessel time, reduce delays and improve schedule certainty.
An integrated delivery model improves collaboration, streamlines decision-making and helps deliver safer, more efficient and more predictable offshore foundation installation.
No dead ends.
Early engagement, precise impact and real-time insight remove wasted moves and keep offshore piling progressing with control.
