Marine : High seas , high tech and high levels of sustainability
Culture shift as industry evolves Cable laying is an old industry negotiating ( quite literally ) a rapidly transforming world . While system , operation and hardware upgrades have been essential , there has also been a need to change mindsets in terms of climate change . Rebooting belief systems has fundamentally transformed companies , making every individual think differently about the environment in which they work .
Didier is convinced that there has been a very positive cultural shift at Orange Marine and throughout the industry . “ There are already protected areas in the seabeds , so , when you design a route for a new cable , you need to get permission from the local authorities . We now have constraints linked to biodiversity and marine life that were not significant 20 years ago .”
