Prysmian to install subsea power cables for Exxon

17 May 2013


The Prysmian Group has been awarded a contract worth more than $100 million for the supply and installation of 50 km of submarine cables for a section of ExxonMobil's existing offshore operations in the United States.
 
The scope of work involves the replacement of approximately 50 km of submarine power cables with increased capacity 40 kV EPR submarine cables designed for water depths of up to 450 metres. The cables will supply electric power from the existing shore-based generating plant to offshore platforms.
 
The turnkey project will be executed by Prysmian with the submarine power cable being supplied by its Drammen, Norway factory and installation being undertaken using the Cable Enterprise laying vessel. The vessel is scheduled to undergo extensive modification work in 2014 for conversion to a full 'dynamically positioned' (DP) vessel in readiness for the installation works.
