The concept of submarine cable protection system
The submarine cable protection system is designed to provided a permanent clearance between two cross channels of cables or pipelines with strong impact resistance, which is a quick and simple installation protect way of the crossing cable.
Cable protection system serves to protect and stabilize subsea power cables on the seabed,comprising two primary types: the cast iron shells and the hybrid protection shell.
The cast-iron system and hybrid system
The cast-iron system, also known as articulated pipes in the maritime sector, is cast from cast iron half-shells and deployed for the cable in contact with the sea bed. The hybrid system, which is utilized for the free span areas leading into the monopile, is formed utilizing the cast iron half-shells along with an outer polyurethane shell to offer extra corrosion protection around the free span areas.
Advantage
The cable protection system comprises cast iron pipe protection that increases the density of the cable, which makes the cable denser and keeps it in the lowest position possible. Another key feature of the system is the flexibility in the production of the spacer sections for the required clearance from the seabed.
