Ariadne
DP III – Cable Laying Vessel The Ariadne is a DP-3 Cable Laying Vessel built for worldwide operations, …
The project comprised of the installation of two 110 kV cable systems, a northern part, between Crikvenica – Konjin on the Is. Krk and a southern part, between Dugi Rat – Postira on the Is. Brač. as outlined below:
• Northern part: Crikvenica-Konjin (Is. Krk); length of submarine cable approx. 4,186 m;
• Southern part: Dugi Rat-Postira (Is. Brač); length of submarine cable approx 7,214 m.
The 3x 630mm2 submarine cables replaced the old ones, which were installed along the two routes. The remaining cable length (714 m approx.) was wet stored close to one of the sites. The total length of the submarine 3x 630mm2 power cable which were loaded, transported, and installed was approximately 12,114m.
Challenging operation in that project was the onshore pull in activities, which 2 of the 4 were through HDD pipe length approx. 150m. Bellmouth installation was installed by divers and high pull in forces reached due to HDD and height difference between HDD exit point and TJB.
