Cable Protection System

Cable Protection System Offshore Wind

LISEN provides a variety of custom urethane products and accessories for offshore wind cable protection systems. These products widely used in the shore end of various submarine cables, in cable pipeline crossings, for undersea cable protection, in post-installation cable protection, and specifically for cable protection system offshore wind.

Offshore Wind Cable Protection System Products and Accessories

Offshore wind cable protection accessories include J-tube seal, bend restrictors, bend stiffeners and polyurethane submarine cable protection tube. We can custom submarine cable protection shells in different sizes to fit your project needs according to your design drawings.
Bend Restrictors
Bend Restrictors
Bend restrictors are used to protect subsea cables, umbilicals and flexible pipe. During installation or operation, they prevent these from excessive bending and flexing, thus avoiding cable damage. It’s made of a two-piece polyurethane polymer design with super duplex fasteners. Attaches to piping or cable during deployment, increasing installation efficiency.
J-tube Seal
J-tube Seal
J-tube seals are used to centralize and partially seal cables in J-tube risers in offshore wind structures.J-tube seal consist of a ductile iron body and a flexible polyurethane elastomer. The J-tube seal is attached to the cable prior to deployment of the splitterless installation.
Bend Stiffeners
Bend Stiffeners
Bend stiffeners is a section of tapered polyurethane tubing. Increasing the material thickness makes it progressively stiffer. Commonly, it serves as an add-on to J-tube seals for offshore cable installation into J-tubes. In dynamic applications like these, the termination point requires additional stiffness. This protects the cable from fatigue effects during cable installation and its service life.
Polyurethane Submarine Cable Protection Tube
Polyurethane Submarine Cable Protection Tube
Our polyurethane submarine cable protection pipes are suitable for many simple and static underwater scenarios ( installation in water depths down to 100m). They offer a cost-effective alternative to ductile iron articulated pipes.

Polyurethane Applicaiton for cable protection system offshore wind

Subsea Cable Protection
in oil mining operations, submarein cable laid for the transmission of power and date signals to protect the normal operation of the mining equipment. Customized polyurethane cable shell with high strength and can withstand the seawater pressure and corrosiveness. This greatly extends the service life of submarine cables, ensures the smooth operation of oil extraction and reduces the loss of production downtime due to cable failures.
Submarine Cable Protection
In the transoceanic submarine communication cable laying project, the cables have to withstand the high pressure of the deep sea and the stress changes brought about by submarine geological activities. Our polyurethane products provide reliable physical protection for the cables, with high strength and good compressive properties, as well as flexibility, reducing damage to the cables caused by stress concentrations.
Undersea Cable Protection
Polyurethane Vertebrae Bend Restrictors are widely used in undersea cable installation, wellhead connection and J-pipe outlet scenarios. The two-piece unit is securely bolted together to ensure structural integrity, and each component in the system is interchangeable for quick installation and adjustment in the field. This design not only prevents excessive bending and flexing, but also maintains the proper load path from the flexible structure to the fixed structure.
Underwater Cable Protection
Polyurethane submarine cable protection tubing is used in the telecommunications, energy, oil and gas, and marine construction industries. It is vital for protecting submarine cables and pipelines in dynamic offshore environments. Its lightweight, two-piece design allows it to adapt to the ever-changing seabed for easy installation and replacement.
Offshore Cable Protection
Polyurethane submarine cable bend restrictors are critical components of offshore energy and telecom infrastructures, preventing excessive bending of underwater cables and ensuring the long-term stable operation of deepwater power and fiber optic cables.
We are able to offer matching cable protection systems for your offshore wind projects. We have the customization capabilities to develop and produce innovative complementary cable protection products for you, utilizing the full potential of polyurethane.
