Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of submarine cable protection equipment, and in particular to a submarine cable protection device and a protection method thereof. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of new energy projects such as offshore wind power, the installed capacity of offshore wind power is growing, and the demand for submarine cables is also increasing year by year. The operation and maintenance of offshore wind farms and power generation require a large number of submarine cables to connect with the land power grid. Submarine cables have become a key infrastructure for offshore energy development and transmission. In addition, according to the spatial distribution characteristics of submarine cables, most submarine cables are laid on the seabed, where the water flow environment is complex. Under the influence of hydrodynamics, the submarine cable laying area is eroded, causing damage to the submarine cables.
[0003] The protection of cables laid on the seabed mainly involves suppressing or reducing the scouring of seabed currents. The existing protection technology scheme mainly involves burying the submarine cable, which is also the most widely used protection technology scheme in the world. This technology conducts preliminary seabed environmental surveys to determine the burial route, and then buries the submarine cable to a certain depth so that the submarine cable is located below the seabed, completely isolating the seabed current from the buried submarine cable, and avoiding the impact of the scouring of the seabed currents on the upper side and the left and right sides of the submarine cable. However, in actual construction and application, this technology also has many technical shortcomings, and the construction is difficult. With the increase of water depth, it is affected by factors such as strong ocean currents and geological changes, and the difficulty of laying trenches increases dramatically, making it difficult to locate the submarine cable. In addition, with the increase of service life, the submarine cable suffers from fatigue aging or failure damage. When the submarine cable needs to be repaired, it needs to be re-excavated, which is also difficult to maintain. The patent document with application number 202410004126.X discloses a submarine cable protection device, which discloses a first counterweight block, a second counterweight block is arranged above the first counterweight block, and a plurality of first engaging grooves are opened on the top surface of the first counterweight block; a plurality of first fastening bolts are inserted through the top surface of the second counterweight block; when the first counterweight block and the second counterweight block are docked and installed, the first fastening bolts pass through the second counterweight block and are inserted into the first engaging groove.
