Correll Cable Installation & Power Services Division (CIPS) is responsible for:

  • Pre-project meetings
  • Creation of RAMS
  • Post Lay Testing (continuity, insulation resistance, Time Domain Reflectometry and Optical Time Domain Reflectometry).

On the offshore assets:

  • Cable pull of 2 x export cables.
  • Stripping the export cables to expose the HV cores and FO cable
  • Complete the permanent hang-off
  • Route the HV and FO cable into GIS and Fibre Enclosure
  • Cleat the HV cores from the hang-off to the GIS
  • Terminate and splice the FO cable into the cabinet
  • Terminate three power cores into the GIS
  • Complete post installation testing from the onshore substation to the offshore assets (IR, TDR & OTDR)
  • Deliver an Inspection and Test Plan for the installed and tested system, forming part of key payment milestone.
