Subsea cable monitoring is not just a technological advancement. It’s a critical component for the operational success and sustainability of offshore wind farms.

GO-SENS project, a three-year initiative focused on developing next-generation solutions for distributed optical fiber sensing (DOFS) to monitor high-voltage power cables in real-time.

Cable health monitoring through fiber optics technology significantly reduces manual offshore interventions and allows for a continuous oversight of the health status of the subsea cables. However, for optimal system performance, a meticulously executed fiber optic path is essential.

In March 2024, Marlinks had the privilege of submitting a poster and participating in a panel discussion at WindEurope in Bilbao.

Cable Protection Systems (CPS) play a vital role in offshore wind farms by safeguarding the network of subsea power cables that transport generated electricity to onshore grids. The CPS are shells that protect the exposed cable from seabed to monopile.

In the offshore wind energy sector, subsea power cables play a crucial role in efficiently transmitting electricity from offshore turbines to the shore. At Marlinks, our approach is straightforward and effective. We use thermal models to precisely map the cable’s temperature distribution along its entire length.

At Marlinks, we believe in speaking the language of our users, who rely on the insights derived from our monitoring application to make informed decisions. Marlinks employs spatial mapping to seamlessly translate the DTS or DAS measurements into intuitive and comprehensible information for our clients.
