To accelerate growth in the Middle East and enhance local industrial capabilities as part of its global strategy, China’s ZTT Submarine Cable & System is planning to set up a manufacturing facility in Saudi Arabia.

By establishing manufacturing operations in Saudi Arabia, ZTT said it aims to directly support the region’s energy transition and infrastructure development, while advancing its global footprint.

The move is said to promote regional industrial development through localized manufacturing to ensure proximity to customers, accelerate response times and customize solutions for Saudi and Middle Eastern markets, as well as promote green energy infrastructure development in the region.

“This investment reflects our confidence in the market’s potential and aligns with Saudi Vision 2030’s industrial diversification goals,” ZTT said. “We look forward to powering sustainable growth through localized manufacturing partnerships!”

ZTT early this month announced it had begun construction of an advanced cable laying vessel (CLV) that will service offshore wind, island interconnections and regional grid expansion projects in Asia Pacific (APAC).

The new-generation, self-propelled CLV will be 139.8 meters long, with a 38-meter beam, and will feature diesel generators with electric drive and DP2 dynamic positioning systems, as well as a helicopter platform, large coaxial turntables, and dual-launch channels.
