The VCP60 Towed Trenching Plow is a high-efficiency subsea cable and pipeline installation system designed to perform trenching and cable laying in a single operation. Towed directly by a support vessel, it offers a simple yet highly effective solution for long-distance subsea installation projects. With precise navigation and monitoring systems, the VCP60 ensures accurate cable placement while maintaining reliable performance in water depths of up to 1,000 meters.
Designed to deliver reliable performance, precise control, and operational efficiency across a wide range of marine and underwater applications.
Integrated Operation
Capable of completing the two core processes of “trench excavation” and “cable laying” in a single operation, suitable for long-distance projects
Wide Range Of Applications
Capable of handling various soil types including sandy soil, silt, clay, and weathered rock, with a depth rating of up to 1,000 msw
Simple Operation
Operates using the towing force of the mother ship, eliminating the need for additional complex auxiliary equipment
High Precision
Equipped with multiple sensing devices including sonar, altimeter, depth gauge, and fiber-optic gyroscope for precise and comprehensive operation monitoring
Discover the core capabilities that enable reliable, efficient, and precise performance across demanding underwater and offshore operations.
The VCP60 streamlines subsea installation projects by combining trench excavation and cable laying into one efficient operation.
