Offshore application examples with energy chains and cables
Durable, modular, resistant to corrosion and easy to install: igus® e-chain systems® for difficult fillings in rough environments.
Here you will find application examples from various fields of the offshore industry.
Rig Skidding and long travel application
Rig skidding concept E4.350 for huge hoses and cables. Smaller cables guided with E4.168 and E4.112. Cable and hose guidance is improved and the access is much better.
