Offshore power cable equipment

We provide cable lay systems and technical expertise to the global offshore cable lay market, including a complete range of power cable installation equipment. We have a strong track record of laying inter-array and export cables. A number of configurations are available such as containerised systems and units that have a break-back feature which allows the passage of a quadrant to speed up inter-array cable lay operations.

Tracked cable tensioners for power cables

Our tracked cable tensioners are used to lay and pick up subsea power cables in applications such as inter-array, export and HVDC interconnector installation.

Offshore carousels

We design and build offshore carousels incorporating innovative technology for the safe, reliable, rapid spooling and storage of power cables.
