Helix Robotics Solutions Limited, the robotics division of Helix Energy Solutions Group, Inc. ("Helix") (NYSE: HLX), has secured a contract with Prysmian, global cable solutions provider leading the energy transition and digital transformation, for post-installation cable burial on multiple projects located in the Mediterranean and North Seas.
Under the agreement, Helix's T1400-2 subsea trencher, in combination with a work class ROV, will operate from a vessel supplied by PPL and is expected to trench over 180 km of cable. Scheduled to commence in July 2025, the contract is expected to span a minimum of six months.
This marks the first major deployment of the T1400-2 system since its acquisition, refurbishment, and integration into the Helix asset fleet. The T1400-2 system features a trenching vehicle with a versatile trenching module and a launch and recovery system (LARS) rated for Lloyd's sea state 6. The trencher can be configured as a tracked jetting and hybrid cutting / jetting trenching vehicle. For this project, the trencher will be set up in jetting mode.
