LS Marine Solution is expanding its push into overseas power grid markets by starting a subsea cable-laying project in Malaysia following Taiwan. On the 14th, the company said it had loaded subsea cables for the Langkawi project in Malaysia onto a vessel at Donghae Port in Gangwon Province. The cargo was loaded onto the cable-laying vessel GL2030.
According to the company, GL2030 will travel to Malaysia and is scheduled to complete the cable-laying work within this year. The project was won by LS Cable & System, and the client is Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB), Malaysia's power utility. The project involves connecting Malaysia's mainland and Langkawi Island with 132kV-class subsea cables.
This project is the first deployment of GL2030 after its expanded retrofit. The vessel's scale was upgraded from 4,000 tons to 7,000 tons. As a result, its cargo capacity has increased, making it possible to continuously lay subsea cables over more than 100 km.
With this deployment, LS Marine Solution is strengthening its ability to handle long-distance, large-capacity projects. After Taiwan, the company is also entering the Malaysia project, broadening the scope of its overseas power grid business.
LS Marine Solution said it would accelerate project execution based on its vessel-related capabilities and the expanded retrofit of GL2030.
The company said it plans to speed up efforts to target large projects at home and abroad.
