Shallow water cable installation
Metco Marine lays telecom, power and composite submarine cables in shallow water. We have completed cable laying operations in Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Bahrain, India, Pakistan, Iraq and the UAE.
With an experienced team and modern cable laying machinery, we take on demanding projects with confidence. Our installation work covers fibre optic and power cables in shallow water, shore to shore and between platforms.
Planned from the survey
The laying method is set from the marine survey report and data. Water depth, tides, currents and seabed conditions all shape the installation procedure.
A controlled lay
During the lay we measure cable tension continuously, keep the cable within the agreed route corridor, and make sure it rests on the seabed with no suspended spans.
