Cable Handling & Laying Equipment

  • Name of Project: Structural upgrades to the Cable Path - Volumetric Extension of Carousel Capacity
  • Scope of Work: Study of the interferences (such as geometric collisions, visibility reduction), impact assessment (structural and stability checks) and engineering of the following solutions due to the extension of the volumetric capacity of the carousel of a Cable Laying Vessel:
    • Modular and removable extensions for the Carousel;
    • New Pickup Arm rated for offshore operations;
    • Verification of the slewing / luffing systems, rigging, foundations and mast e selection of the components to the replaced;
    • New rest cradles for both Pickup Arms;
    • Extensions of the towers for the control cabins Other minor steelworks needed by the on-board installation;
    • On board assistance during mobilization works.
    At a further stage, the strengthening of the aft deck has been specifically designed to hoist a 42t SWL winch for the purpose of the project.
  • Vessel / Project: Giulio Verne - CRETA project installation of a high-voltage AC cable system for the Crete-Peloponnese submarine interconnection in Greece.
