Novacavi Supplies Cables for Danish Defence Subsea Demining

Novacavi, a specialist cable manufacturer, has recently engineered, manufactured and supplied tough and size contained custom cables to support the Danish Defence subsea demining program.

Tasked by the Danish Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organisation, Novacavi developed an underwater hybrid cable that allows remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) to enhance and extend operational capabilities in Baltic Sea waters.

This cable combines maximum strength with minimum diameter while guaranteeing efficient optical and data transmission, neutral buoyancy, hydrolysis and UV resistance and high friction to avoid slippage during use in the harsh tasks of ROV mine hunting, Novacavi explained.

The cable has been designed and manufactured for requested specific applications, but can be adapted as necessary to meet other special requirements, the company added.
