VR SOP Training for HV Cable Installation & Jointing

Reduce joint failures and improve safety offshore

HV export cables and joints are high value and high risk. Spark creates bespoke VR training that mirrors your joint bay setup, cleanliness rules, stress cone steps, test sequences and lift plans—so teams practise the exact procedure before a live joint is built.

Common challenges

  • Cleanliness: contamination control inside joint tents and terminations.
  • Sequencing: step-by-step joint build without missing critical holds.
  • Testing: VLF/PD tests, insulation checks and documentation.
  • Safety: offshore lifts, pinch points and weather windows.

How our bespoke build works

  1. Capture SOPs & specs: jointing manuals, hold points and acceptance criteria.
  2. Create scenarios: joint build, contamination incident, test fail and recovery steps.
  3. Coach in VR: prompts matched to your checklists and test forms.
  4. Assess: right-first-time, defect risks and safety behaviours.

Benefits

  • Lower joint failure risk and fewer reworks.
  • Safer offshore work and clearer roles.
  • Audit-ready evidence for owners and insurers.
