DC/FO: DC subsea control umbilical infrastructure Subsea controls architectures have been traditionally based on large size project-specific umbilicals integrating hydraulics, data, power, and chemicals. The submarine telecom industry has a unique expertise an extensive track record of delivering highly reliable, long reach, standardized solutions for DC powering transport and Fiber Optic communication. Leveraging on this […]
UTC Winner of Best Student Presentation
Shining a light on student papers This morning’s Day 2 UTC we heard from our future subsea colleagues with three student paper presentations. They covered a diverse range of topics, including smart subsea sensor networks, optimizing subsea processing and failure modes in offshore wind. Astrid Marie Skålvik, from the University of Bergen/ NORCE, talked about […]
