Cable burial with full project management

The challenge

Two subsea cables totalling around 3.5 km required trenching to 2.0 m TOC in soft sand and 1.0 m in stiff clay. Rotech took full operational control — from vessel charter to third-party coordination.

Our solution

The TRS1-LD low-draft tool was mobilised on the OSV Relume and deployed via the vessel crane, selected for its ability in shallow water scopes.

The result

Both cables trenched to Ørsted’s specification, averaging 4 metres per minute in soft sand.
