Offshore contractor Jan De Nul has commenced sea trials for its new extra-large cable-laying vessel, the Fleeming Jenkin. The specialised vessel has gotten underway to conduct operational and technical tests at sea.

The commencement of testing represents a key commissioning phase for the vessel as Jan De Nul progresses the delivery of its latest series of high-capacity offshore installation assets.

Following the sea trials of the Fleeming Jenkin, a second extra-large cable-laying vessel belonging to the same construction programme is slated to begin its trial phase.

The new additions will expand the company's subsea cable installation capabilities for international energy and marine infrastructure projects.
