Adhemar de Saint Venant of Luxembourg

Adhemar de Saint Venant off Great Yarmouth, heading for the Hewett Field in the Southern North Sea.

 

The vessel is able to install rock at depths up to 1,970 ft. (600 m) by means of a flexible fall pipe. An inclined fall pipe will enable accurate rock installation around structures such as offshore wind turbine foundations and oil & gas platforms. The vessel can also act as a support vessel for a subsea trencher, for the burial of cables. In addition, a cable carrousel with related equipment can be installed on board, for placing cables on the seabed.
