Umbilical cables
Description
OverviewAPAR is one of the very few manufacturers of umbilical cables globally. The ever-changing characteristics of the offshore industry mean that oil production is being done in deeper waters and subsea processing is on the rise. Both these factors affect umbilical design as not only do the weaker cross-section components need to withstand larger forces and elongations but the cross-sections also must include high voltage power elements. APAR’s experience in this specialised field of manufacturing helps us take care of both these requirements. We provide umbilical cables that have met all the necessary criteria from the perspective of design, engineering, manufacturing and testing. Application These cables are used in all types of applications: connecting subsea installations, fixed and floating platforms as well as FPSOs and even connecting subsea to shore systems. Characteristics APAR not o
Umbilicals link subsea installations to fixed platforms, floating platforms and FPSOs, combining electrical, optical and control functions in a single construction for deep-water production.
