Proserv lands key Dogger Bank cable monitoring deal from DEME Offshore
Wednesday 16 February 2022
Global controls technology company Proserv Controls has secured a contract from DEME Offshore, subsidiary of the DEME Group, a leader in solutions for the offshore energy market, environmental and infra marine works, for the provision of the inter-array cable monitoring system, or CMS, for the first two phases, A and B, of the Dogger Bank Wind Farm, which when complete will be the largest offshore wind farm in the world.
Proserv will harness its new, disruptive ECG™ holistic cable monitoring system to deliver this project. ECG has been initiated and driven by Proserv with critical support from its partner Synaptec, a power system monitoring expert.
ECG represents a step-change in traditional monitoring methods, offering comprehensive visibility across cable assets. Adopting an integrated and scalable approach, it provides real-time analysis with insights through an intuitive user interface. By using intelligence from all data across an asset, the system is capable of enabling proactive and predictive decision-making, improved utilisation of resources and reduced operational expenditure (OPEX).
Proserv’s Great Yarmouth Centre of Excellence team will be executing the full scope of supply, with both Dogger Bank A and B systems scheduled to be ready for dispatch in Q3 2022.
The extent of the scope of supply will include a cable monitoring system solution for each phase, integrating applicable sensor interrogator technology. The hardware will be complemented by the intuitive human-machine interface, utilising Proserv’s TIACS software suite.
