Any object that moves through liquid is subject to hydrodynamic forces. When towing, these forces will exert themselves on ropes and cables, as well as the towed body itself, thereby limiting speed and depth.

10 tips for fewer design iterations and quicker production

We design every cable termination specifically for each project. This means we always try to find the perfect solution for the connection between the cable and the client interfaces.

How to make a light-weight electro/optical umbilical?

The newly developed Sonic Wireline Operated Remote Drill (SWORD) is a system designed to collect samples and geotechnical data from the seabed. The cable needs to combine electro/optic components with a high tensile light-weight strength member, taking into account the rules around rope hoisting/lifting applications.

There are many aspects to designing a dynamic cable. For example, a cable can be meant to move while in use, as happens when towing or because of wave motion. Other aspects are things like torque balancing, the load versus elongation properties, the crush resistance and fatigue life.

Like every company, we’re in business to make a profit. But not at any expense. And certainly not at the expense of our employees, assets, the environment and communities. So how do we work? What principles do we live by? We covered them all in our recent Health and Safety Day. See for yourself by watching the video.

An unusual request from 200km off the Norwegian coast- an interview with Aker Solutions

Aker Solutions came to DeRegt with an unusual request. Aker is responsible for the maintenance of a floating concrete tension-leg platform, installed over a subsea template with 56 well slots. The rig is named Heidrun, and produces oil and gas from a depth of 2,300 metres. It is located about 200 km off the middle of the Norwegian coast.

How does DeRegt get cable buoyancy just right?

Buoyancy is an upward force exerted by a fluid that opposes the weight of an immersed object. If an umbilical cable is too light it will pull an ROV up, which makes piloting fiendishly difficult when manoeuvring through offshore structures.

A central component of our cables is a stranded copper wire, which is able to conduct electricity. Around it we extrude a continuous layer of plastic to isolate the copper from its surrounding environment. Twisting this together with other components, forms our custom designed cable.

All change at DeRegt! Following a period of profound organisational transformation for DeRegt, we have now appointed a new managing director. His name is Daniël Ruiter and we had the pleasure of asking him SIX QUESTIONS below. Find out more about our new leader below.

Why do we need Flexible Terminations?

Space is always scarce on board ships and submarines in particular, which means that the smaller Sonar or ROV systems can be, the better. A tailor-made cable with a small diameter and bend radius helps keep the winch as small as possible, reducing the overall footprint of the system. A logical step you can take to reduce system size is opting for a flexible termination for towed arrays, with the same bend radius as the cable, as this allows the entire rig, including both the cable and the array, to be rolled up on the same winch.
