OASYS monitors 100th cable at Hornsea One

This August, the OASYS Cable monitoring system has monitored its 100th cable during the installation the Hornsea One export cable installation campaign by the Cable Lay Vessel Lewek Connector. This milestone was achieved together with DEME’s subsidiary Tideway Offshore Solutions.

Tideway’s Hornsea Project Survey Manager said: “Using OASYS Cable to monitor the installation of the Hornsea One export cables was a first for Tideway. OASYS Cable is currently being used onboard the Lewek Connector, helping the operational crew monitor and anticipate the subsea part of the operation. Additional value might show after the operation when all unique installation data on the cable lay is available via OASYS Cable.”

In 2018 OASYS has also been used for monitoring and post-lay survey purposes during the installation of two offshore power cables by Boskalis at Kriegers Flak and the monitoring of cable installations at Borkum OWF, executed by Jan de Nul. ECE Offshore will continue to improve OASYS to achieve their goal: ROV-less cable monitoring.
