COMPANY EXPANSION
2013 has seen the company expand its technology offering with a focus on improving HSE and cost-efficiency in the European offshore wind sector.
Their suite of industry-leading cable-lay technology includes the Pull-In Module, HD3 Cable Burial Plough and CBT1100 Trencher.
PULL-IN MODULE ‘Renewable Energy Health and Safety Award winner, 2013’
The award-winning Pull-In Module (PIM) innovation was developed by Technip Offshore Wind with the aim of providing a safer, more efficient offshore wind cable installation process.
Technip developed the PIM after identifying pitfalls in existing processes used to carry out cable lifting and pull-in activities.
The PIM is a three-leg tripod featuring a self-contained winch and equipment storage for all tasks associated with pull-in activities. Its design negates the need for bolted connections and allows it to be installed in any orientation, reducing the potential damage risk to the TP.
THE UNIT’S BENEFITS INCLUDE… • Removal of vessel winch wires from operation
• Introduction of compliance to industry standards
• Reduction of vessel dependency • Improved speed of installation • Provision of on-board equipment storage
• Incorporation of power supply for lighting/tools
This patented and ground-breaking piece of equipment provides personnel with a safe working platform for cable pull-in and reduces cable pull-in completion time by up to 60%.
HD3 CABLE BURIAL PLOUGH Technip Offshore Wind’s HD3 cable burial plough - developed by fellow Energy Coast member, Soil Machine Dynamics Ltd (SMD) - provides a high performance burial solution for subsea power cables and umbilicals.
The system uses the latest technology to ensure effective and reliable cable burial and protection, helping to de-risk the overall cable installation process and provide a cost-effective way of achieving effective cable protection for the operation life-cycle of the cable product.
CBT 1100 TRENCHER The CBT 1100 trenching system (also developed by SMD) was made specifically for cable burial and can both jet and cut simultaneously. This adaptive technology increases capability and burial efficiency by allowing cables to be laid in varying soil types without the need for interchangeable tool sets.
Collectively, these technologies help to ensure safe, effective project delivery across the offshore wind industry.
