Asso.subsea supports Nexans for subsea cable project

Friday, July 7 2023

WInd Energy – BorWin Subsa Cable

Asso.subsea, a specialized global contractor in the submarine cable industry, has signed a contract with Nexans for the transportation, installation and protection of the nearshore section for the 320 kV DC connection that will transmit up to 980 MW of clean energy from the BorWin cluster in Germany.

Asso.subsea will be involved in the design and execution of the most challenging areas of the project, characterized by very shallow waters, and will also assist Nexans in the execution of the Waddenzee work package, thanks to the specific characteristics and bespoken features of its state-of-the-art DP2 cable laying vessel Atalanti.

The Atalanti is one of the very few shallow waters cable laying vessels in the market with a capacity of up to 4500 Tons of cables that can be distributed in two different carousels. This allows the vessel to handle bundled HVDC cable systems and install them up to a water depth of 4 m with full DP capabilities.

Moreover, the Atalanti will be equipped with the jet-sled Hydroplough burial tool, ensuring that the protection of the cable system will be reached in accordance with TenneT’s requirements.
