Superior Insulation Properties

• Lower thermal conductivity of both solid and foamed systems results in lower achievable U values
• Reduced thermal diffusivity extends cool-down time
• Compatibility with direct electrical heating systems (DEH) extends system utilization

Unmatched Mechanical Performance

• Superior low temperature ductility enables lower temperature reeling and increased flexibility in installation schedule.
• Incompressibility of solid system allows unlimited water depth installation
• Higher insulation density coupled with reduced thickness improves seabed stability of flowlines and assists in optimizing hydrodynamic response of risers

Thinner Insulation

• Lower thermal conductivity translates to reduced insulation thickness and potential savings in transportation and installation costs
• Thinner insulation and reduced pipe profile results in lower lay strains and improved hydrodynamic response

No Glass Microspheres

• Zero risk of compromised thermal performance due to glass breakage or degradation during service
• Superior insulation performance without glass enables unlimited depth installation

Proven Field Joint Technology

• Compatible injection-moulded field joint material guarantees insulation integrity and system performance
• Lower field-joint application temperature facilitates cooling and reduces moulding cycle time

Application Using Conventional Equipment

• Streamlined delivery schedules, product standardisation and quality assurance practices due to simplified processing operations
• Universally and readily available project management and logistics support from multiple existing plant locations
