Balmoral Comtec Equipment
DURAGUARD impact and abrasion protection
Polyurethane elastomer half-shell protection for subsea cables, umbilicals, jumpers and riser touchdown zones, including weighted DURABALLAST and a floating wind touchdown version.
Description
Balmoral DURAGUARD provides localised impact and abrasion protection, impact absorption, stiffening and thermal insulation for fixed offshore wind cables, subsea umbilicals, flexible jumpers, flowlines and riser touchdown zones. It is made in a range of polyurethane elastomer grades and sizes, with typical lengths of 500-2000mm, and its two modules are banded around the asset during or before lay.
Key features
- DURABALLAST: heavy fillers add density, weight and stiffness
- DURAGUARD touchdown protection: protects floating offshore wind cable arrays, risers and umbilicals at seabed touchdown zones and reduces dropped-object risk
- Touchdown version installed with a supplied hydraulic tool; materials and design comply with API 17L
