Key areas of expertise are project and program management in the field of equipment and electrification. This includes attention to the procurement and guidance of an equipment fleet, stakeholder management, and integral energy transition within the industry. Values such as responsibility, flexibility, communication, adaptability and positivity are central, always combined with a hands-on approach.
The passion for sustainability was born in part from the valuable lessons learned while working in Antarctica. These experiences have led to a strong focus on contributing to a successful energy transition closer to home.
British Antarctic Survey projects are among the most challenging experiences within Blom-ECD. Several construction and infrastructure projects at locations such as Rothera, Bird Island and King Edward Point involved the development of unique solutions.
The extreme weather conditions and remote location of these sites created unparalleled logistical challenges. Transporting and deploying construction equipment required meticulous planning and coordination. The equipment not only had to withstand temperatures well below freezing, but also be easily maintainable in conditions where support and spare parts were limited.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

The emphasis here was on reliability and redundancy. Every aspect of operations was designed to ensure continuity, with modifications specifically tailored to the unique conditions of Antarctica.
The Antarctica projects began as an employee of BAM International, with Jasper Blom holding the role of Plant Manager (Head of Equipment Services) before continuing to provide further guidance on these unique projects as an independent contractor in the role of equipment consultant.
Blom-ECD supported BAM Nuttall in the development of new port facilities in the Falkland Islands. The work included the development of working methodologies, accurate budgets and the complete planning and mobilization of construction equipment.
Strategic use of both leased and purchased resources achieved a cost-effective and reliable process that met the specific requirements of the remote site. This approach resulted in smooth execution of the work despite the challenges of working in an isolated area.
