OAC to complete installation by December, says Slattery Sign in with LinkedIn 20 January 2021 | Natalie Bannerman SUB.CO founder Bevan Slattery has updated the market on the progress of the Oman Australia Cable (OAC), with installation due to complete in December of this year. According to the company, the 9,800km system connecting Muscat, Oman to Perth Australia, has completed its manufacturing process with load 1 of 2 assembled, tested and now being loaded onto a freighter to transfer to the main-lay ship to begin installation from March 2021. “2020 has been an extraordinarily challenging year to commit to building a cable of this scale, but I am delighted that we have achieved 100% of cable production and completed the first load system assembly testing within the original product schedule. This could not have been done without the assistance of our fantastic partners: SubCom,” said Slattery.
