Wave technology on Prysmian’s new cable-laying vessels

Miros, an industry leader in real-time ocean insights for maritime and offshore operations, has extended its agreement with Prysmian for the supply of cutting-edge wave monitoring systems to support operational excellence.

Prysmian’s latest state-of-the-art cable-laying vessels, Prysmian Monna Lisa and Prysmian Marco Polo, have both been fitted with Miros’ Wave System and Miros Cloud technology and benefit from accurate real-time sea state and weather data.

This builds upon the successful deployment of the same monitoring systems on Prysmian Leonardo da Vinci in 2021.

Prysmian Marco Polo specialises in shallow-water cable laying and burial installation, even in harsh environmental conditions.

Prysmian Monna Lisa, the sister vessel to Prysmian Leonardo da Vinci, is designed and equipped to carry out deeper power cable installations and is capable of operating in waters of up to 3,000 meters.

By integrating Miros’ advanced wave measurement and monitoring solutions, Prysmian Monna Lisa and Prysmian Marco Polo will benefit from improved situational awareness, ensuring safer, more efficient, and highly precise cable-laying operations.

Prysmian will increase its installation capabilities with eight vessels by 2027, including the latest, Prysmian Alessandro Volta, the most advanced and biggest ever in terms of size and capacity.

This will enable the company  to meet the growing demand for its cable systems and offer the most flexible and comprehensive installation solutions.
