Did you know?
We have the capability to satisfy your umbilical, HFL and gas lift jumper needs. One of our more recent projects supplied a scope of 2 inch UH-500 series stab connectors with Steel Tube Flying Leads (STFL) for a client in the Gulf of Mexico.
The bundling of the tubes incorporated a back twist to create a balanced construction. The bundle was taken through an extrusion system and spooled directly onto a reel.

A reel was specifically made to suit the installation method to reduce project cost and interface time. In addition, the reel was made to be re-used on the next delivery after refurbishment.

The manufacturing system is a vertical bundling and extrusion line with flexible configurations, up to 18 tubes with secondary pass possibility, and the ability to incorporate electrical and fiber components. A Siemens automated control system ensures accurate control and logging of speed, back twist and lay length.

We have direct Deepwater shipping access from our Stord, Norway facility which improves project cost constraints by facilitating rapid delivery to project locations.
