Subsea Applications

Versatile Solutions for All Subsea Challenges

CFE plays a pivotal role throughout the entire lifecycle of an offshore energy project. It’s non-intrusive nature makes it a versatile solution for applications ranging from pre-construction, construction, operations and maintenance, through to final project abandonment.

Key application include:

  • Product trenching and backfilling (cables and pipelines)

  • Pre-sweeping and freespan remediation 

  • Cable, pipeline and asset deburial (inspection, maintenance and repairs)

  • Rock dump dispersal

  • Decommissioning & salvage excavation

  • Seabed manipulation and preparation
