Eland Cables supplies a comprehensive range of cables for use in shipboard wiring, offshore platforms, and other at-sea installations for oil drilling and production. These cover power, control, signal, instrumentation and communication applications.
to Shipwiring & Offshore Cable datasheets
Our cables for marine environments are designed to perform in extremes of temperatures, both high and low, and to be resistant to adverse elements such as humidity, oil, acid, drilling muds, and salt water, as are prevalent in most offshore operational environments. We also provide an extensive range of ship cables for marine vessels.
Shipwiring cable products
Our shipwiring cables are manufactured in accordance with International Standards including IEC 60092 (electrical installation in ships), and offer properties including fire resistance (IEC 60331). They can also be certified by bodies including Germany’s Det Norske Veritas (DNV), the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) and the Lloyd’s Register of Shipping.
Some of the products in our ships cable portfolio include:
| Application overview | |
