The project collated and assessed information on cable installation techniques used in the UK, and considered the effectiveness of these installation methods and tools in different seabed types. The project also collated and assessed information on the impacts of cabling on seabed habitats and communities, and provided a series of recommendations for future consent applications and proposals for best working practices during and after cable installation. http://www.marinedataexchange.co.uk/pages/terms-of-use.aspx see disclaimer file otherRestrictions http://www.marinedataexchange.co.uk/pages/terms-of-use.aspx see disclaimer file otherRestrictions The Crown Estate +44 020 7851 5000 enquiries@thecrownestate.co.uk custodian RPS Energy +44 020 7851 5000 rpslo@rpsgroup.com originator The Crown Estate +44 020 7851 5000 enquiries@thecrownestate.co.uk distributor The Crown Estate enquiries@thecrownestate.co.uk owner asNeeded Documents https://www.marinedataexchange.co.uk/details/TCE-1714/summary A link to the web service or dataset. https://www.marinedataexchange.co.uk A link to the general host site.

This information was supplemented by information requested (via a questionnaire) from offshore wind and interconnector developers on installed export cables within a defined study area. The aim of this data collation and review exercise was to assess the relative effectiveness of the cable installation methodologies within the different ground conditions present across the study area, with a view to answering three key questions of the study: • To what degree is success of cable burial driven by ground conditions? • Are cable protection requirements site specific (i.e. dependant on ground conditions), or do other factors influence whether these are required? • Can detailed information on ground conditions be used pre consent to accurately establish cable burial and cable protection assumptions within consent applications?
