RETFORD, UK – Torgy LNG AS has commissioned Trelleborg’s applied technologies operation to provide 190 integrated cable protection systems for the Jiangsu Qidong offshore wind farm project.

Trelleborg’s NjordGuard cable protection system will protect inter array grid power cables on the project from over-bending, abrasion, and fatigue.

Production of the able protection systems will take place across the company’s manufacturing facilities in Singapore and England. Project engineering works will start immediately, with installation activities scheduled for the beginning of 2021.

NjordGuard is an integrated cable protection system designed and developed to protect offshore wind farm power cables in wind turbine generators and offshore substations.

Easily assembled on a cable-lay vessel to allow speedy installation, the system is manufactured in highly abrasion resistant and API 17L certified Uraduct material, which enables the protection system to travel over the seabed without damage, extending the system life.

Most importantly, it facilitates easier installation, reuse, and removal without diver and ROV intervention, optimizing efficiency and maximizing safety, the company said.
