The tethers on prestige were the 1200m ones from bluestream, running on the extended Tekmar TMSs. The TMSs were lowered to 3000m, then the rest on the tether.
I beleive sonsub currently has a plan to squeeze 2000m onto one their extended TMSs, but it’s by going down to a very small diameter tether. With an Innovator on the end, can see lots of reterms coming on that one. Plan is to do touch down monitoring from the deck of a a standard S-lay pipe barge.
30m water depth with a 1500m excursion anyone?

As Nosub says, sonsub’s the boys for the long excursions.
Anything in particular your looking to know?
