[By NBC-1TV H. J Yook]LS Cable & System (President & CEO Ja-Eun Koo) is the first Korean cable maker to enter the South American submarine cable market. LS Cable & System announced on March 13 that it would supply 230kV extra-high-voltage submarine cables to the state power corporation of Venezuela (CORPOELEC). These cables will connect the 40km distance between Chacopata in the inland state of Sucre and Margarita island, and be used to supply electric power in the region.

LS Cable & System won this contract on a full turnkey basis, including not only the delivery of cables, but also installation works and tests. Its capabilities as a general engineering company for submarine power cable systems as well as its production technology were recognized once again.

As the demands for electric power increased and the power grid is getting old in South America, the demands for power cables including submarine cables are expected to increase. Accordingly, if LS Cable & System completes this project successfully, it expects to be able to win additional orders for submarine cables from other South American countries.

“We won orders in South America as well as in Europe and the Middle East. It proves that LS Cable & System has firmly established itself as a world-class submarine cable maker both in name and reality,” said Mr. Jae-In Yoon, director in charge of the Sales Division at LS Cable and System. “We will concentrate our energies on making inroads into new markets by capitalizing our high-value-added products like submarine and extra-high-voltage cables.”
