Keel Laid in Türkiye for South Korea's Dedicated HVDC Cable-Laying Vessel
Tersan Shipyard has marked the start of hull assembly for a specialized high-voltage direct current cable installation vessel destined for South Korea.
Construction of South Korea's dedicated high-voltage direct current (HVDC) cable installation vessel has reached a key construction milestone following the keel-laying ceremony at Tersan Shipyard in Türkiye.
The event marks the transition into the formal block assembly phase for the specialized cable-laying vessel (CLV). The laying of the keel represents the structural beginning of the hull's fabrication within the shipyard's building berth.
Upon completion and delivery, the unit will operate as the only specialized HVDC installation platform of its kind for South Korea. Dedicated cable-laying units of this specification are engineered to handle complex offshore energy infrastructure and high-capacity submarine power transmission links.
Work is progressing at the Turkish shipyard as subsequent hull blocks and mechanical systems are integrated into the newly established structure.
