Enshore Subsea Welcomes Back World’s Most Powerful Subsea Trencher
in some of the most challenging seabed conditions and, whilst we have been able to use her over the last three years, it was always our plan that she became a fully owned Enshore Subsea asset where we can maximize her full potential,” said Pierre Boyde, Enshore Subsea Managing Director.With 3200 HP of effective trenching power T3200 is suitable for the burial of cables and pipelines in challenging ground conditions. T3200 has a track record of high-performance burials in both offshore wind and interconnectors segments.Operating in water depths from 9 m through to 500 m with products up

condition data to vessel operators,” says Jason Powers, Director of Business Development for Silver Ships. “This data is essential to the safe and efficient transportation of goods up and down the Mississippi River.”The vessel is powered by twin Caterpillar C18 Tier 3 engines making 800 hp each to reach optimal speeds resulting in the prevention of research delays, which is important considering the frequent changes in Mississippi River conditions. The single Caterpillar C2.2 Tier 3 genset provides 25 ekW of electric power for Tobin’s air conditioning, echo sounder and other electrical

Danish Coastal Authority Orders New Survey Ship
that can measure the seabed with millimeter accuracy down to just over 200 meters depth.The ship itself is specially built for the harsh weather conditions on the West Coast, where a large part of the survey takes place. The almost 15 m long ship with two powerful inboard engines of a total of 1,000 HP is built in carbon fiber and reinforced, so it can withstand sailing into very shallow water depths and even regular grounding as such is an important part of the vessels daily tasks.Area manager Niels Kristian Kvistgaard from the Coastal Authority said, “Coastal surveying places some very special

,” said Kelly. Operations for the ROV Doc Ricketts will transition from the R/V Western Flyer to the R/V David Packard when the new vessel reaches full operational status in fall 2023.MBARI’s new research vessel will honor Silicon Valley pioneer David Packard, who founded Hewlett-Packard (HP) in a Palo Alto, California, garage with Bill Hewlett, and is largely credited with sparking the tech revolution. His philanthropic endeavors included funding the creation of the Monterey Bay Aquarium in 1984. Three years later, Packard founded MBARI as an independent institution committed to pursuing
HP to Help Carnegie Develop AI-Tech for Wave Energy Project
Australian wave energy technology developer Carnegie Clean Energy has signed an agreement with Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company (HPE) to cooperate on a project to develop a reinforcement learning-based controller for the CETO wave energy technology.CETO is a fully submerged, point absorber type wave energy technology. A submerged buoy sits a few meters below the surface of the ocean and moves with the ocean’s waves. This orbital motion drives a power take-off (PTO) system that converts this motion into electricity.Carnegie said the cooperation with HPE would extend the artificial intelligence
Forum Bags Trenching System Contract for Cable Maintenance Project in SE Asia
XT500 trenching system and Dynacon Launch and Recovery System as well as associated surface power and control installations. The XT500 trenching system has a 3,000m depth rating and three meter ROV burial capability on the ocean floor. It uses Forum’s Integrated Control Engine (ICE) and has 500 HP power.The vehicle will be manufactured at Forum’s facility at Kirkbymoorside, Yorkshire and installed onboard the client’s vessel in early 2021.As part of the workscope, Forum will also deliver operational and maintenance training for the client’s personnel and provide support during
