For
many years, the France Telecom Marine fleet
has maintained cables in the Atlantic Ocean
under the ACMA
agreement and in the Mediterranean, the Red
and the Black Seas under the MECMA
agreement.
Chamarel Marine Service, a wholly owned subsidiary
of France Telecom Marine, operates in the
Southern
Hemisphere for maintenance on a 20,000-kilometers
segment of the system SAT-3/Safe stretching
from the latitude of Dakar in the Atlantic
Ocean to the latitude of Diego Garcia in the
Indian Ocean.
Under SEAIOCMA
(South East Asia Indian Ocean Cable Maintenance
Agreement), France Telecom Marine is also
responsible for cable maintenance in the Indian
Ocean through a 50/50 joint venture with Singapore-based
operator SingTel.
Since 1983, the France Telecom Marine cableships
have performed more than 410 maintenance operations.

Cable-laying |
| |
Since
1988, when fibre optics took over from coaxial
cable, France Telecom Marine has laid
124,000 km of submarine links.
France Telecom Marine has contributed
to lay the SEA-ME-WE 3, Atlantis
2, Americas 2, TAT 14, Southern Cross, Hibernia,
Safe, EAC, AJC and C2C systems, not to mention dozens of
festoons to nearby landing points. More recently,
we contributed to the GEMINI-BERMUDA network.
The laying of these new-generation high-speed
links demands experience plus state-of-the-art
equipment and skills. |
