Port operators are increasingly relying on energy chains instead of cable festoons to modernise their cranes and improve the processing speed of the cargoes of a growing fleet of large ships Seaports around the world are under growing pressure to handle larger ships in shorter cycle times. To achieve this, more port operators are relying […]
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 […]
