MILAN — Prysmian Group has inked a service level agreement with the German-Dutch transmission system operator TenneT to provide nearshore and offshore cable inspection, maintenance and repair services for TenneT’s HVDC and HVAC submarine power cables in the North Sea.

The agreement will be fulfilled in partnership with N-Sea.

This new agreement, which will apply to all the already operational cable links, has a term of three years, with an option for an additional extension. It will cover about 4,000 km of TenneT's submarine cable systems located in the German and Dutch North Sea.

This agreement is the latest of a series of contracts granted by TenneT, which has recently awarded Prysmian the two grid connection projects IJmuiden Ver Alpha and Nederwiek 1.
