Massive is right.."The design has to be capable of holding the weight of the large copper elements that will provide the high voltage power,” von Tungeln continued. “Copper is not able to hold its own weight, particularly in ultradeep water.”
That much weight and the copper will separate and pull apart. So they wind high tensile steel in the umbilical for support. The best part is that it all hangs off those BSLatchers we watched DPDW build.
