Reliable power
Dynamic power cables are a critical part of a floating offshore wind development.
A strong understanding of potential failure modes and how they can be predicted and mitigated is a must for dependable power transmission.
The transition to renewable energy calls for the development of floating offshore wind in water depths not suitable for bottom fixed turbine installations. This new frontier presents different challenges than those of land-based or shallow-water wind farms.
Any large industrial project in the ocean space involves uncertainty and risk. Under the water line, the sea is harsh, even if it looks calm on the surface. With a floating offshore wind farm, the wind turbines are on floating foundations that move constantly, whereas the mooring is installed on the seabed and not much impacted by the waves. This contrast is a challenge that requires more than dynamic power cables.
In addition to the complex and changing conditions of the ocean and weather, our Dynamic Inter Array Cable System takes into account the impact of every component and step required to have a successfully operating floating offshore wind farm.
Why the Dynamic Inter Array Cable System?
Risk management
Management of the inherent risk of subsea cables is arguably the greatest benefit of using the Dynamic Inter Array Cable System.
Faster to first power
A floating offshore wind farm gets more quickly and reliably to power transmission by using the Dynamic Inter Array Cable System.
Built on experience
The Dynamic Inter Array Cable System leverages decades of knowledge and competence gained from the oil and gas industry.
Zero dynamic power cable failures to date
25 years of experience offshore with dynamic cables
Over 78,000 meters of dynamic cables installed in deep water
Offshore dynamic cable power experience to share
Floating offshore wind is a developing area attracting interest from those seeking offshore wind development opportunities further from shore in deeper waters. The Dynamic Inter Array Cable System builds on knowledge and lessons learnt from the oil and gas domain that apply to floating offshore wind.
TechnipFMC has supplied systems to the oil and gas industry for over 50 years and dynamic power cables for more than 25 with zero failures. This background is essential to providing a unique robust and proven reliable solution with the Dynamic Inter Array Cable System.
Through the engineering, procurement, construction and installation (EPCI) model, we are able to solve floating offshore wind’s power cable challenges in deep water. Early stage planning best positions floating offshore wind developments for success.
Important to the industry
Getting power from a floating offshore wind farm is more complex than with bottom-fixed solutions.
Solve technical challenges
Moving with the floating wind turbines, a Dynamic Inter Array Cable system adapts to harsh offshore weather.
Unlock business value
Getting faster to first power is better for your floating offshore wind farm’s success.
