ASN FLEET

Meet the impressive fleet of Alcatel Submarine Networks. Our fleet, managed by the esteemed French company Louis-Dreyfus Armateurs, comprises seven state-of-the-art vessels: Ile de Sein, Ile de Batz, Ile de Bréhat, Ile d’Aix, Ile d’Yeu, Ile d’Ouessant, and Ile de Molène. Each ship is a marvel of modern engineering, equipped with advanced ROVs (Remotely Operated Vehicles) and ploughs, showcasing our commitment to innovation and excellence in the submarine telecommunications market.

In a strategic move to modernize and expand our installation capacities, we welcomed two new vessels to our fleet in 2021 – the Ile de Molène and Ile d’Yeu, further enhancing our capabilities in the rapidly growing sector of submarine telecommunications.

The Ile de Molène, in particular, is a new addition dedicated to the maintenance of our customers’ submarine telecoms cables, proudly flying under the French flag.

Our fleet is more than just a collection of ships; it’s the backbone of our global operations, enabling us to install, maintain, and manage the intricate web of undersea cables that connect the world.

Every vessel in our fleet plays a critical role in ensuring the reliability and efficiency of our services, keeping us at the forefront of the industry and reinforcing our presence in key maritime areas.
