We provide material and component solutions to difficult applications across the complete energy sector, including onshore drilling, wind-power, ocean vessels, offshore oil-platforms, subsea equipment and subsea pipelines:
Drilling-Rigs, Vessel-Decks & Rig-Platforms
Cast Nylon for cable handling & protection
PA6C sheaves are custom made and suitable for numerous lifting devices, helping reduce crane-arm weight and increased rope / cable support and life span. They’re available up to 2M in diameter, and suitable for cranes, drilling-rigs and hoist equipment including TMS & ROV deployment launch and recovery systems.
Applications include:
- 6C-MOLY Crown sheaves – for drilling rigs
- 6C-EL Wireline Rigging Sheaves – for running downhole swab-electric line operations
- 6C-MOLY Sheave Segments – allowing for assembly of very large diameter sheaves
Supporting applications include:
- 6C pulleys and davits – for cable handling and deflection
- 6C-WFN Wear-Pads (sliding elements) – to provide stability and eliminate friction resistances encountered during the telescopic movement of booms.
Exploration, Production & Generation:
Cast Nylon clamping, centralising and protection for pipelines & cable
Our PA6C and CP612 grades are ideal materials for clamping, positioning and protecting subsea flow-lines, umbilicals, power and communications cables. The combination of mechanical strength and high abrasion resistance properties are designed to withstand the harshness of offshore and sub-sea environments.
Applications include:
- PA6-OFN Pipe in Pipe system Centralisers – for positioning an inner flowline inside an outer carrier pipe, to transfer the loads and protect the insulation material contained in the annulus.
- PA6C Segmented Clamps – for distributed risers & wind farm cables buoyancy; clamping solutions allowing DBMs to be fitted at any point along the length of the pipeline or cable.
- PA6C-WFN Flowline Bundle components – for carrying pipeline bundle loads & protecting elements
- PA6C-OFN Tubing & Casing Centralisers – for torque & drag reduction in well construction & drilling
Supporting applications include:
- PA6C Guide & Diablo Rollers – for offshore cable management operations
- CP612 ROV Torque receptacle (torque bucket) – allowing the ROV to connect with subsea tooling
- CP612 ROV Thrusters Nozzles – for subsea vehicle propulsion systems
