“ At JDR, we’ re doubling down on our commitment to offshore renewables with an additional investment into our new Blyth facility,” he continues.“ We’ re working quite extensively across the energy infrastructure market and are already supplying many products for offshore oil and gas decarbonization. For example, we’ re supporting the electrification of oil and gas assets with power cables and control umbilicals, which use both onshore and offshore renewable energy sources to deliver power to offshore production assets, reducing the need for diesel generators and gas turbines to power those platforms.”
This commitment to decarbonization and continuous innovation has been instrumental in driving JDR Cables’ continued market leadership. As such, the company has been awarded a multitude of exciting, high-profile contracts – one of which is to deliver a major project for Eni SpA. The contract for Liverpool Bay CCS Limited – a member of the Eni group – will see JDR Cables supply around 100km of 33kV subsea power cables for the Liverpool Bay CO₂ Transportation and Storage project – the backbone of the HyNet Northwest industrial decarbonization cluster. The cables will be designed and produced at JDR Cables’ upgraded Hartlepool facility and new Blyth facility, illustrating the breadth of opportunity that the additional capacity will open.
By aligning such projects with its broader sustainability strategy, JDR Cables is dedicated to strengthening the UK’ s
