ABSTRACT:
In laying an electric cable underwater, the finishing end of the cable is brought ashore by laying the cable end portion (from the cable laying ship) along a course parallel to the shore and as close to the shore as the ship can reach, then pulling the cable end to shore using a rope, pulling the cable end along the shore to the intended landing point, and then pulling the cable end in-land along the intended laying line until the whole cable is positioned along this line. Buoyancy devices are attached at intervals to the cable end portion for the duration of the landing process, to facilitate the sliding movement of the cable over the bottom.
