Norway Optical Cable Splicing Project
The project involves the construction of a new high-capacity fibre optic cable stretching from Trondheim to Alta. Subsea infrastructure is considered a vulnerable target in a hybrid threat landscape. Our fitters work daily with branching and splicing of fiber in pull troughs, splice cabinets, masts, etc. The cable, which will be produced at Nexans' plant in Rognan, is designed to provide a secure and reliable subsea fibre connection. IOEMA-1 is a state-of-the-art, high-capacity, 1400 km repeatered submarine fibre optic project that will arc across five key northern European markets – the UK, The Netherlands, Germany, Denmark and Norway. Nexans Norway AS accomplished significant achievements in December 2025 with the hull launch of Nexans Electra at Ulstein Verft and Space Norway awarding them with a contract for Bodo-Fauske link fibre-optic cable installation work.
