Submarine Cables: Overcoming Supply Chain Bottlenecks (Season 3 Ep 7)
Supply chains across the world are being impacted by the effects of COVID-19. Manufacturing and production lines across America, including for offshore wind, have experienced backlogs. LS Cable USA’s Project Director, Bill Wall, who has more than 40 years of worldwide offshore marine construction and development experience, joins host Brandon Burke to discuss the critical role submarine cables play in the fast developing U.S. offshore wind industry. They touch on submarine cable management and storage considerations, potential supply chain bottlenecks, and Bill hints at some investments that LS Cable USA may be making.
