Here we display an assortment of major projects we’ve been involved in, for more detail about our track record in the industries we serve please contact us.

2Africa - The Longest Submarine Cable

2Africa is the longest fibre optic cable in the world measuring over 50,000km in total. Verisub have played a key role in the successful completion of each milestone.

Verisub’s involvement in the 2Africa project started in 2019 with the marine cable route surveys which continued into 2022. We provided project support and consultancy services involving desk study review, monitoring and supporting offshore operations. Verisub provided all offshore Purchaser representatives for the geophysical and geotechnical surveys. Involving over 5 vessels working simultaneously across the whole system, surveying deep water, shallow water, and near shore, we provided 100% at all times even during the challenging global pandemic where entry was extremely restricted in all countries.

In 2022 the project moved into the installation phase. Verisub was contracted to provide technical project support with dedicated marine controllers overseeing all installation operations throughout the project. Verisub provided all marine Purchasers’ Representatives to oversee the various aspects of the installation including, cable loading and transfers, mainlay operations, direct and separate shore end operations and subsequent post lay inspection and burial.
