Prysmian Group has secured two new milestones offshore wind farm projects in the US for a total of approximately $900M.

Subsea excavation and trenching pioneer, Rotech Subsea, has completed a programme of cable IRM works at a key offshore wind farm in the Netherlands. Commissioned by a European subsea service provider, Rotech’s RS2 CFE (controlled flow excavation) tool from its industry-leading RS range of trenching and excavation equipment was mobilised from Aberdeen in Q3, 2021. The cable repair operations saw the RS2 de-bury approximately 800m of existing cable before carrying out the burial of new cable, with a September 2021 completion date.

Miros AS announced it has signed an agreement with Prysmian Group, a world leader in the energy and telecom cable systems industry, for the installation of their IoT dry-sensor WaveSystem including Miros Cloud Services, delivering real-time wave and current data onboard the MV Leonardo Da Vinci.

CVTelecom (Cabo Verde Telecom) and Angola Cables have signed a joint cooperation agreement to identify synergies to expand connectivity and network capabilities.

Rotech Subsea has completed key de-burial and post-lay trenching works in the outer Thames Estuary for a major marine services player. The works, on the London Array offshore wind farm, further establishes the company as the sector-leader in Controlled flow excavation (CFE) and suspended jet trenching.

LS Cable & System and Jan De Nul Group announce the completion of the first lot of submarine power cables for TenneT’s offshore projects Hollandse Kust (noord) and (west Alpha) in the Netherlands.

NKT has commissioned the power cable project comprising three 220 kV HVAC power cable systems for the Moray East Offshore Wind Farm located 22 kilometers off the north-east coast of Scotland.

Marking the next stage in its transition from oil and gas to becoming a leading supplier of cable protection systems (CPS) for fixed and floating offshore wind farms, First Subsea, has opened a dedicated CPS production facility in Lancaster, UK.

Prysmian Group, world leader in the energy and telecom cable systems industry, has secured the largest ever submarine cable contract awarded in the US. The contract has been awarded by Dominion Energy Virginia, a subsidiary of Dominion Energy Inc., to a consortium made up of Prysmian and the DEME Group, a leader in the offshore wind industry. The Balance of Plant (BoP) contract includes the complete package for the transportation and installation of the foundations and the substations and the EPCI (Engineering, Procurement, Construction, Installation) services for the inter-array and export cables for the future largest commercial offshore windfarm in the United States. This project is a major milestone for Prysmian Group, as it is the first cable company in the offshore wind industry to sign a Balance of Plant contract. The total value of the contract is approximately €1.6 billion, of which around €630 million related to Prysmian for the cable supply and the installation works under its responsibility. The project is expected to be completed by 2026.
