Insulation Material

Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE), ethylene propylene rubber (EPR), or thermoplastic elastomer (TPE). 

Voltage Rating

1 kV to 30 kV, depending on the application and cable type. 

Temperature Range

-40°C to +90°C for operational conditions; up to 125°C for short-term overloads. 

Fire Resistance

IEC 60331 and EN 50200 certified for maintaining circuit integrity under fire conditions for up to 180 minutes. 

Product Description

We use multi-layered sheathing made from corrosion-resistant materials like high-grade polyurethane and thermoplastics, which provide robust protection against saltwater corrosion, mechanical damage, and biofouling. This ensures your cables endure high-pressure environments, even at extreme depths. 

Water Resistance

IP68-rated for continuous immersion in seawater; includes longitudinal and radial water-blocking features. 

UV Resistance

UV-resistant outer sheath compliant with ISO 4892, ensuring durability in prolonged sunlight exposure. 

Cross-sectional Area

0.5 mm² to 300 mm² per conductor, customizable based on current and voltage requirements. 

Sheath Material

High-density polyethylene (HDPE), polyurethane (PU), or thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) 

Armoring

Galvanized steel wire armor (SWA) or stainless steel, providing mechanical protection in extreme conditions. 

Current-Carrying Capacity

50 A to 600 A, depending on conductor size and environmental conditions. 

Flexibility

High-flex, multi-strand conductors with torsion and bend cycle resistance for dynamic applications. 

Cable Size

Customizable multi-core designs, typically 2-25 cores, depending on data, power, and hydraulic functions. 

Outer Diameter

10 mm to 150 mm, depending on the number of cores and specific application needs. 

Mechanical Protection

Reinforced with Kevlar, steel wire, or glass yarn  

Standards Compliance

IEC 60228, ISO 13628-5, API 17E, and BS EN 50525 

Technical Advantages

Managing numerous power, data, and fluid lines with minimal space can lead to complex wiring systems that are difficult to manage and prone to failure. These hybrid umbilical cables are engineered with multiple functional cores in a compact, consolidated structure. The cores support simultaneous data transmission, electrical power, hydraulic fluid, and chemical injection, eliminating the need for multiple cable systems. 

We enhance cable longevity through our customized outer sheathing, which includes abrasion-resistant materials and embedded sensors for continuous monitoring of cable health. By proactively detecting potential faults like insulation degradation, our cables minimize unplanned downtime and extend their service life, giving you confidence in long-term, uninterrupted operations.

Having Doubts? Our FAQ

Check all our Frequently Asked Question

How do umbilical cables maintain performance under extreme subsea pressure?

Umbilical cables are engineered with multiple protective layers, including high-strength aramid fibers and steel armoring. These materials provide mechanical strength, preventing deformation and damage under extreme hydrostatic pressure. Additionally, water-blocking compounds and cross-linked polymers in the sheath ensure reliable insulation even at deep ocean depths. 

Can umbilical cables carry both power and hydraulic lines without interference?

Yes, umbilical cables are designed with distinct insulated cores for power, data, and hydraulic lines. These cores are separated using specific shielding materials, such as copper tape or aluminum foil, to prevent electromagnetic interference (EMI) between electrical signals and hydraulic functions. This design ensures smooth, simultaneous operation without performance degradation. 

What materials are used in umbilical cable sheaths to resist seawater corrosion?

Sheaths are typically made from corrosion-resistant materials like polyurethane (PU), thermoplastic elastomers (TPE), or high-density polyethylene (HDPE). These chemically inert materials prevent degradation when exposed to saltwater, biofouling organisms, and harsh marine environments. Some designs also include water-blocking tapes for extra protection. 

How do umbilical cables prevent signal loss over long distances?

Umbilical cables utilize high-performance fiber optic cores for data transmission, which offer low attenuation and minimal signal loss over long distances. Additionally, shielded conductors with low capacitance are used for electrical power transmission, ensuring efficient current flow without excessive voltage drop, even in long cable runs. 

What are the options for mechanical protection in high-tension umbilical cables?

For high-tension applications, umbilical cables can be armored with galvanized steel wire (SWA) or steel braiding. In some cases, Kevlar or glass-reinforced yarns provide tensile strength without adding excessive weight. These materials ensure the cables can withstand high tension, bending, and abrasion in dynamic environments like subsea operations.
