Umbilical Protectors

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.

Key Benefits

  • Prevents damage to umbilicals during installation and retrieval
  • Reduces workover costs through high reusability
  • Performs reliably in complex offshore and subsea well designs
  • Speeds up installation, minimizing downtime and labor costs

Features

  • Interchangeable designs for tubing sizes from 3.5″ to 13.75″ and larger
  • Strap collar system custom-fitted to cable dimensions and durometer
  • Tailored for deployment over production tubing and drill pipe connections
  • Quick installation using air-driven hydraulic tools
  • Available in corrosion-resistant alloys and specialty steels

Applications

  • Offshore subsea completions
  • Power and control umbilicals
  • Chemical injection lines
  • Communication and monitoring systems

Cyclone

Cyclone ESP: Advanced Sand Protection with Vortex Technology

Cyclone ESP harnesses the power of proven vortex technology to deliver superior sand protection for electric submersible pumps (ESPs). Designed for versatility, it performs reliably in onshore, offshore, deviated, and horizontal wells in protecting your equipment, extending pump run life, and significantly reducing lease operating expenses.

With a universal one-size design, Cyclone easily retrofits into any ESP well. Installed directly below the pump, it requires no downhole preparation, making deployment fast and hassle-free. Its high-efficiency centrifugal action separates a broader range of sand grain sizes than traditional sand screens, directing clean fluid to the pump and diverting solids to a tailpipe below.

Constructed from specialized metallurgy and featuring no moving parts, Cyclone avoids the erosion, plugging, and maintenance issues common with conventional sand control methods. The result is a robust, low-maintenance solution that delivers consistent performance in even the harshest environments.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Superior Sand Protection: Shields ESPs from abrasive damage.
  • Extended Pump Life: Reduces wear, increasing uptime and reliability.
  • Lower Operating Costs: Minimizes workovers, replacements, and lost production.
  • Universal Fit: One size fits all casing weights—no custom parts needed.
  • Quick & Easy Installation: No need to rotate the motor or tailpipe.
  • Field-Serviceable: Rubber elements can be changed on-site.
  • High Reusability: Enables fast changeouts and reruns without leaving the rig floor.

Discover how Cyclone ESP can enhance your sand control strategy, delivering efficiency, durability, and peace of mind in every well.
