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.

 

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.
