UK-based manufacturer of subsea and power cables, JDR Cable Systems, part of TFKable Group, has completed the manufacture and load-out of a 7.4-kilometer subsea control umbilical, including subsea umbilical termination assemblies (SUTAs), for Subsea7 as part of the Serica Energy-operated Belinda project.
According to JDR Cable Systems, the umbilical was produced at JDR’s facility in Hartlepool, UK. The 11.4-meter, approximately 300-tonne reel was loaded onto self-propelled modular transporters (SPMTs), moved to the quayside, and transferred to the installation vessel.
