JDR is to design and manufacture a hybrid power steel umbilical for Wintershall Noordzee's Ravn field development in the Danish sector of the North Sea.
JDR’s will deliver an 18.2km-long umbilical which will provide power and control; connecting a new platform to an existing platform for long-term well testing off the Danish coast. The composite umbilical is comprised of hydraulic hoses, super duplex steel tubes, MV power cores, and fibre optic cables. Additionally, JDR will provide the subsea hardware as well as life-cycle support through their Global Service division.
The umbilical will be manufactured and loaded out at JDR’s deep-water, quayside Hartlepool facility and will be delivered to the Ravn field in the North Sea. Delivery is scheduled for the third quarter of 2015.
