A deeper look at our rebrand...

One week ago, we unveiled our new identity, but what went into choosing our new name and logo? Today, we’re excited to share the story behind it.

 

The name “Bakker Flow Services”

Our new name “Bakker Flow Services” better reflects our evolution and aligns with our mission to be the best designer and performer of technical solutions in the energy sector. Our subline is therefore “Equipped For Solutions” and represents all that!

 

Fun fact: our employees were directly involved in brainstorming and selecting the new name.

From our identity to our new logo “The Flow”

Our logo is a reflection of our identity. It is actually the mole that inspired the logo. This remarkable creature embodies flexibility, effortlessly moving both forward and backward.

Powerfull, despite it’s size, he continuously explores new paths. Native to Europe, the mole also symbolizes our goal-oriented mindset and determination.

 

Additionally, the flow symbolizes our continuous progress in the energy sector, aligning with our name. Each line represents one of our core pillars – New Energy, Oil& Gas, Industrial, Rental, Maintenance & Inspection.

 

Together, they represent our fresh new look, and we hope it resonates with you as much as it does with us.

We have rebranded! Welcome to Bakker Flow Services

After months of hard work and dedication, we are thrilled to introduce our new brand identity.

 

Why the change?

This isn’t just a rebrand – it’s a true reflection of who we are today and where we are headed. Our previous brand no longer fully represents the direction we’ve taken as a company. While we have deep roots in the oil and gas industry, we have increasingly expanded into the new energy sector, which has become a key part of our business.

Our new name and branding better reflects this evolution and align with our mission to be the best designer and performer of technical solutions in the energy sector.

 

What doesn’t change?

While we’re proud of our new look, we want to reassure you that our core values remain unchanged. At Bakker Flow Services, we are still deeply committed to the things that matter most to you:

  • Reliability: We keep our promises and are transparent about our actions.
  • Safety: We only work if we can do it safely.
  • Quality: We strive for the highest quality both internally and externally.
  • Sustainability: We strive for the smallest possible footprint in everything we do.
  • Flexibility: Because we’re equipped for solutions.

 

What’s next?

In the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing the inspiration and thought process behind our new name and logo, so you can learn more about how they reflect our vision and mission.

Welcome to Bakker Flow Services!

Sound Wall
Sound Wall Versus Steel Stacked Containers: Which is The Most Effective Solution?

When working on site, you want to minimize noise and sight disturbance to nearby residents. This can be done by using our sound wall. However, we are seeing an increase in the use of containers at locations where noise reduction is essential.  Both solutions are used to reduce noise pollution for nearby residents, but each has its own advantages and disadvantages. Containers may be cheaper but do they offer the same benefits as the sound wall?

A good time for us to compare our sound wall with the use of these containers to see what is best to use, considering noise reduction, safety, durability, possibilities for adaptation and of course the aesthetic aspect for the environment. Why choose our demountable sound wall instead of separate containers?

 

Specially designed for noise reduction up to 20 dB (AQ)

Unlike containers, our soundwall is specifically designed to protect the environment from noise pollution up to 20dB(AQ). It is precisely calculated to achieve the best noise reduction and manufactured from materials with excellent acoustic properties.

It is constructed from HEA140 steel sheet piling profiles that are 0.63mm thick plus a 0.63mm thick perforated steel plate, padded with 50mm mineral wool insulation between the sheets. The noise reduction of our sound wall has been extensively tested and recorded in a written report by TNO, a leading research institute in the Netherlands. Since you want to keep the inconvenience to a minimum for nearby residents, this report provides assurance,  that the sound wall contributes to minimizing noise pollution for the environment. The soundproofing ability of steal stacked containers depends on several factors such as the height of the stack of containers but also the density. If there are gaps between the containers, sound can penetrate through them.

 

Safety

Stay safe with a well-lit worksite and resistance to wind forces up to 12 Bft.

 

Flexibility and customization

  • Dismountable and reusable: As it is a modular system, the sound wall can be easily adapted to your preferences and site requirements, creating an optimal sound barrier.
  • Space-saving: Unlike containers, which take up a lot of space, the sound wall offers a more compact and efficient solution.
  • Customization: Depending on your specific needs, we have a choice between a manual or electric overhead door as wide as 5 meters.  In addition, we have doors for emergency exits and special cable ducts.  Furthermore, we can provide you with matching lighting.  Our hanging LED lighting systems are specially designed for use on our sound wall.

 

Durability and environmental friendliness

Our sound wall is designed for long-term use, as it is made of durable materials and resistant to weathering. This makes it a sustainable choice. In general, containers are more susceptible to damage and can therefore rust faster.

 

Aesthetics and neighborhood friendliness

The walls have a tighter and more professional appearance than containers, which creates a neater impression. This contributes to a positive relationship with neighborhood residents and can reduce complaints.

 

In short, both can be used against noise. Although stacked containers can be a quick and relatively inexpensive solution to temporary noise problems, in most cases the sound wall is a much more effective choice. They offer better noise reduction and flexibility, are more durable and are more aesthetically pleasing.

Geothermal well testing
Successful Geothermal Well Test

We’re excited to announce the completion of a successful geothermal well test for HVC on both a production and injection well!

 

The process began with a nitrogen lift (clean-out) of the injection well, ensuring it was fully prepared. From there, we connected to both wells to perform a closed loop test, which went smoothly and efficiently.

 

This achievement is a result of teamwork and dedication. A big thank you to everyone who contributed to making it happen! We’re looking forward to the next challenge.

 

Stay tuned for more updates as we continue pushing forward in new energy!
