New Installation capabilities for Submarine Cables

OVERVIEW

Installation capabilities

With a fleet of six cable laying vessels, Prysmian has the largest state-of-the-art fleet in the industry. We make the best use of the available resources to ensure project efficiency and safety at all times. From shallow water to deep water up to 3,000 m, from soft soils to hard soils, from single cable to bundled cables, we have the experience and assets to provide complete solutions across all manner of cable installations.

Monna Lisa

Monna Lisa will follow in the footsteps of Leonardo da Vinci, boasting the most avant-garde technology in the market, and will reinforce Prysmian’s EPCI approach offering engineering, manufacturing, installation and monitoring services, strengthening Prysmian leadership in the interconnection and offshore wind farm markets.

She will match the capacity and performance of Leonardo da Vinci, while incorporating some green improvements such as lower C02 emissions thanks to the shore connection and an energy storage system with double the battery capacity.

Leonardo da Vinci

Leonardo da Vinci is the state-of-the-art and most efficient cable laying vessel in the world.

With the highest carousel capacity and bollard pull, it operates for extended periods in challenging weather and works to the deepest depths.

Leonardo da Vinci is a cutting-edge vessel also in terms of sustainable performance as it ensures reduced environmental footprint.
