e-loop
Tested, safe cable package with motor, data and hybrid cables for offshore e-loop, from igus igus has developed the e-loop, a chain to support hanging installations in extremely challenging applications, such as deep drilling oil and gas rigs. The extremely robust energy chain system safely guides cables vertically and is already replacing more and more […]
The igus e-loop, a heavy duty energy chain for drilling machinery, has won an international award recognising its design to protect cables/hoses and operators on oil & gas platforms. igus has returned a winner at the prestigious International Association of Drilling Contractors (IADC) NSC Safety Awards in Aberdeen for the innovative e-loop, a clever product […]
In this week’s video of the week, the e-loop® energy chain is shown in extreme temperatures on a drilling rig. The robust energy chain system can withstand the harsh environments of applications such as these while allowing single cables and hoses to be swapped out due to its simple modular design. Protecting the cables is […]
The e-loop energy supply series which increases safety and reduces procurement and installation time has been expanded to suit static applications, including shore power supplies. Shore power offers the provision of electrical power to a ship at berth so that its main and auxiliary engines can be shut down. Stricter guidelines are forcing ports to implement more environmentally […]

12th November, 2019 igus has introduced the e-loop energy chain for safe cable management on top drives for deep drilling rigs. The new modular system, which is made of high-performance plastic, ensures a defined minimum bend radius of the cables and withstands adverse weather conditions, as well as vibration and shock. In addition to use […]
