New Installation capabilities

OVERVIEW

Installation capabilities

As one of the world’s largest cable manufacturers, we have to anticipate and meet the demands of the industry. In multiple locations across the globe. And in multiple different environments. And because the market never stays still, neither do we. Constantly investing time and resources so that our manufacturing capabilities and installation assets continue to cater to the latest demands. We are always improving and innovating, offering new installation solutions that range from off-the-shelf equipment to bespoke designs

Our extensive track record means our knowledge of how to carry out a submarine cable installation is second to none – we make the best use of the available resources to ensure project efficiency and safety at all times. However challenging the conditions. From shallow water to deep water, from soft soils to hard soils, from single cable to bundled cables, we have the experience and assets to provide complete solutions across all manner of cable installations.

Prysmian fields three of the most state-of-the-art cable-laying vessels in the world. They offer extended project versatility with deep-water installation capabilities of up to 3,000 m, as well as shallow-water and near-shore solutions:
