ADIPEC 2018: Nexans presents its cabling solutions for oil and gas

Technology

Nexans has introduced its range of solutions and services for oil and gas onshore and downstream markets at ADIPEC 2018

The company has presented its innovative, quality and cost-effective cable solutions, designed and fitted to meet the needs of projects of all size and complexity in the Middle East.

Building on the decades of experience in the oil and gas subsea projects, including in regional large-scale projects such as West Nile Delta in Egypt and Abu Dhabi’s Nasr Oil Field, Nexans has showcased its bespoke high voltage direct and alternating current (HVDC and HVAC) cabling solutions.

The Group has also introduced its cutting-edge cable-laying vessel Nexans Aurora with high manoeuvrability and station keeping capacity, designed to ensure a safe and efficient transport and installation of large volumes of cable systems in shallow and deep waters. Together with ADNOC, Nexans has presented a case study simulating a transmission link project in the Middle East, sharing tips and best practices for each step of a high voltage submarine cable project.

In addition, Nexans’ drilling and topside offering presented at the event includes GEXOL® range of power, control and instrumentation cables as well as SHIPLINK® cables for IEC-spec offshore platforms and floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) units throughout the world. Leveraging its industry-leading expertise in the design and manufacture of the offshore bridle and overwater umbilical connectivity projects, Nexans has demonstrated its innovative connection solutions for extremely harsh and dynamic operating environments, including 5 / 8 / 15 kV assemblies, tender-to-platform bridles, ship-to-shore power and portable power generation.

For the oil and gas downstream market, Nexans is showcasing its flagship product, Nexans HYPRON®. Designed for refineries and petrochemical installations in moist areas with aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, this new generation of power and control cables offers a more sustainable lead-free alternative to conventional lead-covered cable. Nexans HYPRON® is featured in some of the most prominent projects in the Middle East, including Oman’s Liwa Plastics Industries Complex or the Gasco’s ABICS refinery in Abu Dhabi.

The training programmes led by Nexans’ experts aim at helping customers master all cabling-related parts of their projects: from defining the needs and specifications of cables to securing safe and on-time cable installation within the allocated budget, to ensuring compliance with local and global regulations regarding construction products. Nexans’ solutions and services can also guide technical project managers in maintaining their site across its operational life, including recycling and buy-back monetisation of cable waste.
