Seaflex SeaSerpent: The Patented System for Installing
Cables in Shallow Water
Instead of using multiple floats to support a submarine cable during
installation in shallow water, the SeaSerpent is a continuous inflatable
tube attached to the cable at 1.2m spacing. While its support and
control of the cable is excellent, perhaps its most advantageous
characteristic is the operational flexibility it allows the installer.
The easy launching procedure is followed by a progressive and controlled
sinking sequence which can be started, slowed, or reversed by simple
surface control without divers.
