Essential Protection for the Lifelines of Deep-Sea Operations
Umbilical cables are the vital conduits of power, fluid injection, control, and communication in deep-sea drilling. As offshore production moves farther from shore, the risk of umbilical damage and the associated costly downtime increases dramatically.
FET’s umbilical protectors are engineered to safeguard these critical systems. Designed to retain and shield cables within marine risers, each assembly features a specialty strap collar that custom-fits the outer diameter and durometer of individual cables. Built from noble, corrosion-resistant materials, these protectors offer long-term durability and high reusability in harsh subsea environments.
Part of our trusted Cannon Services product line and the broader MultiLift artificial lift solutions catalog, these protectors are built to perform where it matters most.
