flexible product carousel
Our 950Te Carousel has been designed for quayside cable storage and cable spooling.
The carousel is ready for use and is currently located at Sunderland Port. The carousel will be used for the storage of cables required for UK offshore wind farm projects. It also gives us the in-house ability to spool large volumes of pipe for the company’s patented Ambient lifting devices.
Mike Wilson, Chief Technology Officer and Chairman said: “I am pleased that we have invested in our first carousel. As the latest addition to our growing fleet, the carousel broadens the breadth of services that we can offer. There are a lot of spare cable storage requirements within the sustainable energy market that we can fulfil. Our ambition is for this Carousel to form the core of a cable storage service for multiple cables in multiple ports.”
