Guess that construction means foundations / piles / whatever is planned and I suppose cabling etc.
Ceto 6 will possibly be launched at Garden Island during late 2016 / early 2017 before winter weather sets in? Time for testing in low sea conditions followed by heavier conditions during our early winter which is then coming into summer conditions in UK.

Apart from the foundations, the rest of it should be relatively simple and fast.
No need for a heavy lift barge and crane for the 20 tonne pod that Ceto 5 needed.
Installing a junction box and laying cable would be easier than laying pipeline I am guessing.
