Cable Burial, Foundation Scour and Landfall Assessment
Subsea power cables and foundations are critical yet vulnerable aspects of any offshore project. With a unique set of challenges posed by installing and operating wind farms in mobile, high energy environments, you need to make sure your assets are protected and risks assessed.
That’s where Partrac comes in. Our team can provide advice related to flow-sediment-structure interactions, such as foundation scour and cable burial, in support of effective management of your offshore assets.
With technical expertise in coastal and marine physical processes, notably sediment transport, marine modelling and morphodynamics, we’ll make sure you have the information you need to make the right decisions. Let our experience guide you through.
How we can help
We’re increasing the certainty of a successful tomorrow with our services which include:
- The interpretation of metocean, geophysical, geotechnical and geospatial data for offshore, nearshore and landfall cable projects.
- Seabed level variability assessment and prediction for inter-array and export cable areas.
- Technical area studies on seabed processes/mobility, marine morphodynamics and sedimentation
- Advanced numerical modelling of tides, waves, sediments, and morphodynamics
- Bedform migration and cable-pipeline burial studies.
- Expert geomorphological assessment.
- Local scour assessment and scour protection design.
- Free-spanning potential assessment.
- Extreme value assessments (EVA).
- On-bottom stability analyses.
- Scoping, design, specification, and management of metocean, hydrographic and sedimentological surveys/site investigations for interconnector and offshore wind farm development projects
- Offshore data acquisition (metocean and scour measurement)
- Expert Witness role in technical due diligence and dispute resolution
