Jee awarded pioneering cable solutions contract

General Tidal

Harnessing the power of tidal in rough seas boasts many challenges. Jee's cable protection and recovery solutions are helping Scotland commercialise marine energy by ensuring cables are well protected and maintainable, using Jee's own concept - U-Tube.

Tidal turbines are placed in high energy tidal areas, which have the potential to cause a great deal of stress on the cables. Jee's U-Tube system is designed to meet the cable installation, protection and retrieval requirements of tidal projects.

During September 2015, the U-tube demonstration trial will take place offshore in Orkney. It will be the largest structure to ever be deployed in a high energy tidal environment which utilises a low cost installation vessel arrangement, comprising of a gantry barge, two multicats and one tug.

The U-tube concept is the first in the Jee family of tidal turbine foundation designs.
