JDR Wraps Up Type Test Qualification of Next-Gen Offshore Wind Cables
program has been successfully completed, including over 1.5 million tension-bending cycles, thereby validating the reliability of the advanced cable design when subjected to the dynamic motion it will endure in offshore floating applications.“We pride ourselves on providing solutions to the energy sector ahead of time and with our 132kV technology, we will do exactly that.“Dynamic cables for floating wind and advanced 132kV cable technologies are critical for the progressive deployment of both fixed and floating offshore wind, enabling developers to not only deploy larger turbines but also
Next Geosolutions, Green Yard Kleven Convert Vessel for Subsea Surveys
.The NG EXPLORER is 58 meters long and 14 metres wide, and has got a draft of 4.5 meters, which makes her suitable also for shallow water environments.Originally built in 2010 as an offshore vessel, it has recently been used in aquaculture but will now be rebuilt for operations in the offshore energy sector, specifically for geophysical, geotechnical, environmental and UXO seabed investigations.The ship will be equipped with a new accommodation module to increase onboard personnel capacity, as well as meeting rooms, a control room, and offices. It will also be fitted with a launch and recovery system
Unplugged: Resident AUVs & ROVs Powered by Wireless Inductive Connectors
of brand, can refuel seamlessly—the SDS achieves interoperability and compatibility across multiple drone types and manufacturers. This is made possible by integrating advanced yet standardized inductive charging technology, enabling wireless transfer of both power and data.Beyond the offshore energy sector, the paper examines how inductive charging stations, initially designed for oil and gas applications utilizing work-class Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs), are being reimagined and adapted to support charging and docking of microdrones, i.e. Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs), in emerging
Green Marine Poised for Growth Alongside Potential UK Marine Energy Surge
Green Marine UK is poised for growth as one of the most experienced players in the UK’s rapidly expanding marine energy sector, as studies underscore the potential of wave and tidal technologies.With a track record delivering complex marine operations, vessel provision and engineering support for pioneering wave and tidal developers, Green Marine is currently a key partner in the USD$21.1 million (€19 million) WEDUSEA project—Europe’s most ambitious wave energy demonstration to date. The initiative will see the deployment of a 1 MW floating wave energy converter at the European
