This wire rope addresses the requirements of floating oil platforms, compensating for ocean wave motion and maintaining drilling rig positioning.

Technical Specifications:

  • Construction: 8 x K36WS EPIWRC, RCN 13
  • Diameter range: 1 1/2"" (38.10 mm) to 2 7/8"" (73.02 mm)
  • Lay configuration: Ordinary or lang's lay, right or left-handed
  • Finish: Galvanized
  • Technologies: PLASTFILL® and SUPERFILL®

Performance Characteristics:

  • Wear reduction: Eight compacted outer strands minimize rope and sheave wear
  • Flexibility: Higher wire count in outer strands improves performance under reverse bending cycles
  • Corrosion resistance: Galvanized finish and PLASTFILL® core lubrication
  • Load distribution: SUPERFILL® compaction technology increases breaking force

Technical Data:

  • Minimum breaking force (1960 N/mm²): 1,178 kN (264,825 lbs) for 1 1/2"" diameter to 4,326 kN (972,523 lbs) for 2 7/8"" diameter
  • Weight: 6.50 kg/m (4.36 lbs/ft) for 1 1/2"" diameter to 24.15 kg/m (16.20 lbs/ft) for 2 7/8"" diameter

Applications in Canadian Offshore Operations:

  • Floating production systems: FPSO units, semi-submersibles
  • Drilling rigs: Jack-up rigs, drillships
  • Subsea systems: Riser management, mooring systems

Usage Considerations:

  • No swivel required: Designed for use without a rope swivel
  • Environmental factors: Engineered for adverse marine conditions
