Offshore Wind Ticker - CT Offshore launches ground-breaking subsea trencher ROV
Smoother operation and a faster and more precise burial of the cables. These are some of the features of the CTO 107-1100. Designed and built on years of experience, CT Offshore’s new subsea trencher ROV (remotely operated vehicle), CTO 107-1100, is purpose built for the cable laying industry.
Based on the know-how and experience, which CT Offshore’s engineering team and ROV pilots have gained throughout the years operating offshore and installing subsea cables, the CTO 107-1100 trencher ROV both meets and exceeds today’s requirements for an optimum and safe burial of inter-array cables.
The new trencher ROV has an operating depth of 100 metres but with an option of up to 1,500 metres, which means that the trencher ROV also can be used for various other industry cable laying tasks besides inter-array cabling at offshore wind farms.
“We are looking very much forward to bringing this new trencher ROV into operation. The test results from our first wet-test in the North Sea just outside Esbjerg exceeded our expectations and the performance of the new CTO 107-1100 reveals a very promising future,” says Mads Carstens, Senior Manager, Head of Subsea.
