Notes historiques
The Wave Venture has been sold for scrap and the Cable Innovator is the replacement vessel at Global Marine Services North Pacific base at Victoria. This vessel is the world's largest vessel of its kind, specifically designed for laying fibre optic cable. All cable-laying operations are carried out over the stern, so the ship travels much faster to the site and is not slowed down by conventional bow sheaves. It can operate in extreme weather while providing optimum protection for all cable-handling operations. It is equipped to deploy a remotely operated vehicle (ROV).
