JDR Cables Systems (JDR), the global subsea cable supplier and service provider has been awarded a major service contract by Larsen & Toubro (L&T), to test 14 umbilical cables for offshore platforms in the Middle East

The work covers two major work scopes across multiple offshore platforms, to ensure the safety and efficient operation of the umbilical cables. This includes the testing and monitoring of critical hydraulic and electrical control systems to support operations across the platforms, from pre-deployment testing, to monitoring during lay operations, and integration testing. The project will be managed from JDR’s UK service centre in Newcastle, with offshore technicians, equipment, and technical support provided throughout the operation to ensure the umbilicals are properly monitored during the installation and integration phases and provide onsite support throughout the whole process.

Alan Combe, service sales manager EMEA at JDR, said, “Securing this contract reflects the strength of our service offering and the capability of our team to deliver technically complex service work in the Middle East. It’s an exciting region, full of opportunity and innovation, and an important part of JDR’s long-term focus. We’re looking forward to working closely with the L&T team throughout the installation and testing phases.” 

“The Middle East continues to present strong opportunities for JDR, both for our subsea cables and our service offering,” added Carl Pilmer, chief sales officer at JDR. “As we consolidate our presence in the Middle East, this project is a good example of how we’re supporting customers in the region with reliable and high-quality delivery.”
