Makai's state-of-the-art dynamic cable model provides unparalleled accurate cable installations.
Makai offers sophisticated products that work together to greatly improve the accuracy and reliability with which submarine cables are laid.
The heart of Makai's cable software is a powerful 3-D cable model.
This fast, finite-segment dynamic model was developed by Makai specifically for precise real-time cable laying control.
Having been used successfully prior to and during numerous critical cable lays, our algorithms have proven to be both reliable and practical.

Makai Ocean Engineering provides custom, high-performance heat exchanger designs and fabrication.
The proprietary technology, TFHX, is constructed using novel advanced manufacturing methods.
Makai's facilities include manufacturing, thermal testing, and structural and fatigue testing.
TFHX heat exchangers can be designed for liquid, air-cooled, vapor-cycle, or phase change material applications.
The technology is the result of over 10 years and over $20million of R&D.
Contact us with your need- and let us provide you with a better thermal management solution.

Since 1979 Makai has designed a number of bottom mounted, down-the-slope, catenary, and pendant polyethylene pipelines for use in SWAC and outfalls.
Makai's long experience with pipeline design and deployment has led to very cost-effective fabrication and deployment methods.
One example is a typical SWAC polyethylene pipeline, which is fused into long sections onshore, filled with air, then towed into place and lowered to the seabed - often in a single day - minimizing expensive marine construction and weather-related risks.
