October has been an eventful month for Oceans & Cables, marked by our active participation in key industry events across Europe. From Sicily to Palermo and Liverpool, our team members took part in discussions shaping the future of subsea cables, offshore wind, and hydrography, strengthening our network and sharing our expertise within the international marine community.
1–2 October | ESCA Plenary 64 – Giardini Naxos, Sicily
We were delighted to attend the 64th Plenary of the European Subsea Cables Association (ESCA) held in Giardini Naxos, Sicily. As proud ESCA members, we look forward to these opportunities to engage with peers and stakeholders from across Europe who own, operate, and service submarine cables.
Representing Oceans & Cables were Alessandro Maiolino, Chief Technical Officer, and Ennio Ammatuna, Human Resource Officer. The two-day event offered productive discussions on regulatory frameworks, technical innovations, and environmental considerations affecting the subsea cable industry.
7 October | Offshore Wind Revolution 2025 – Palermo
A few days later, our team was present at Offshore Wind Revolution 2025 in Palermo, a key event focusing on building the offshore wind industry and preparing ports for the rapid growth ahead.
Our participation reflects Oceans & Cables’ ongoing commitment to supporting the renewable energy transition through subsea cable expertise and infrastructure development. Attending on behalf of the company were Daniele Bruccoleri, Client Representative, Alessandro Maiolino, Chief Technical Officer, and Ennio Ammatuna, Human Resource Officer. The event provided valuable insights into the future of offshore wind in the Mediterranean and the vital role of subsea cabling in enabling this transformation.
28–30 October | HYDRO25 – Liverpool
We were equally proud to be represented at HYDRO25 in Liverpool by Alessio Vespucci, one of our hydrographers. Alessio delivered a presentation titled “From Vespucci, Columbus and Magellan to the Modern Offshore Survey”, bridging the history of maritime exploration with today’s cutting-edge offshore survey techniques. This participation reflects our strong belief in nurturing the next generation of hydrographers and encouraging innovation in the field.
From international plenaries to forward-looking industry conferences, October was a month that underscored Oceans & Cables’ ongoing dedication to collaboration, innovation, and professional growth. We remain committed to contributing to the future of subsea infrastructure, offshore energy, and hydrography, continuing to build strong partnerships and share knowledge across the global marine industry.
