Milestone Renewable Contract for Expro

Maritime Activity Reports, Inc.

March 5, 2012

Expro Connectors & Measurements’ new renewable division has been awarded an important order by Alstom.


Expro Connectors & Measurements (C&M) partners with Alstom to develop a cable connection and management system to be deployed on one of Alstom’s ocean energy projects, thus contributing to Alstom’s development of clean technology solutions to harness the energy potential of the world’s oceans. Expro will be supplying its SpecTRON, DigiTRON and FoeTRON wet mateable products alongside a cable connection system and termination head as well as cable protection and aftermarket services for site cable termination. This system will provide the subsea connection between the power export cable and the energy converter device.  Rob Wyatt team leader of the renewable division said: “This is all the equipment the client will need to make the connection between the subsea cable and the generator.”

 

“The renewable industry has seen something of a surge in terms of development; and it is Expro’s aim to support such innovation with our proven subsea products.  The new division was created in a bid to set ourselves as the market leaders and to receive such an important order is a brilliant achievement.”
