Case Studies

• Eland Cables technical experts identified the specifications required to meet demands - the sheathing material on the chosen cable was of key importance in helping protect it against the extremes of temperature it would be subject to.
• Cable matching the specification and achieving GOST certification (meeting national Russian standards) was then manufactured.

The combination of requirements meant a customised instrumentation cable rather than an off-the-shelf solution. Our technical team were able to hone the specification and have an appropriate cable manufactured and tested. It was a process that required co-ordination between the project owner, the main contractor, and the electrical contractor.

The bespoke cable was delivered directly to site in Baku ready for installation.

• Extensive stockholding across the required range allowed for an initial consignment to be cut to length and despatched upon receipt of order, with the remainder on a short manufacturing lead-time.
• The high quality of the cables received saw further orders and the appointment of Eland Cables as supplier to all of OMV's Pakistan projects.

Despite a local cable manufacturer having the capability to produce a cable that would do the job, it was deemed that the precise specification we proposed was better and preferred.

We were able to manufacture, test and ship the cable within the same lead times as the local supplier, meaning a more efficient, tailored solution with no negative impact on project timelines.

• The specified fire resistant instrumentation cables required a mica glass tape to be applied with the insulation material in order to maintain circuit integrity in the event of a fire.
• Manufacture was prioritised and the cables were subject to Quality Assurance protocols in The Cable Lab to ensure they met all appropriate national and international standards.

• Cables available from stock in our distribution centre - saving significant time against manufacturing lead-times.
• The specific measurement was cut-to-length and immediately packaged for air freight export to Qatar allowing the critical maintenance work to go ahead without delays.

• The application required an IEC international standard instrumentation cable with both overall and individual pair screening to be customised to include a tinned copper drain wire with each screen.
• The Cable Lab^® confirmed the precise design and the cable was manufactured against the required delivery timeframe.
• RasGas has repeatedly sought Eland Cables’ technical support on customised designs for instrumentation cables including screening and improved temperature and fire resistance requirements.

• Eland Cables' technical experts worked with the specifiers to identify a cable solution that would provide the necessary performance and meet the rigorous demands of the environment.
• Composite cables combining instrumentation and power were designed with technical documentation provided for swift client approval.
• The cables were then manufactured and shipped within 2 weeks from order. This was possible due to our strong relationship with audited, approved manufacturers.
• All five containers reached destination within the required four weeks allowing the upgrade work to be carried out as scheduled.

• Technical specification support was required from the experts in The Cable Lab to identify the most appropriate cables for the application.
• Once specified, these control cables were manufactured with the required steel wire braid to provide electromagnetic screening, before being subject to QA testing in the Lab.
• These were then promptly delivered to this remote UK location.
