Pre‑lay grapnel run and route clearance activities on the COBRAcable submarine cable route between Eemshaven (NL) and Endrup (DK).
C&S Offshore Services provided route preparation support for the COBRAcable interconnector, delivering project management of pre‑lay grapnel run (PLGR) and route clearance activities. The company managed the offshore management team and PLGR crew, planned the clearance routes and vessel movements, and supervised recovery and shore disposal of out‑of‑service cables and other seabed debris in line with ICPC recommendations and local regulations. These works formed part of the construction‑phase cable installation campaign, ensuring the subsea route between Eemshaven and Endrup was clear and suitable for safe laying of the COBRAcable HVDC submarine cables.
