Faster lay speeds, reduced operating costs, minimal downtime

We aim to provide you with benefits including faster lay speeds, increased operational sea states, reduced operating costs, optimum efficiency and minimal downtime. Our philosophy is to build safe, reliable equipment that is quick to mobilise and simple to operate and maintain.

Our integrated control systems are based on proven industry-standard equipment and open software. This ensures that support and spare parts are readily available, and that the equipment can be maintained, developed and extended easily. The system equipment is controlled by a Siemens PLC and Siemens Remote IO modules operating on a profinet network. The supervisory and control system is generally a Siemens HMI/WinCC SCADA package, which provides full operational and diagnostic capability.

Cable lay vessels
