Project Description
Synergie staff have undertaken key project management roles in the installation of trials infrastructure and equipment, while ensuring compliance with marine navigational requirements and without impacting on day-to-day marine operations and sea trials. The installation of sub-marine cables in littoral waters with significant wave and tidal stream energy was a significant technological challenge, which required the development of innovative engineering solutions to achieve success.  In addition, Synergie managed the production of the Operational Health & Safety Management System in 2004, which remains in operation.
