CHALLENGE

To efficiently & safely lubricate critical umbilicals prior to their deployment.

VIPER SOLUTION

It was recommended that Enshore use the Viper Mid Wire Rope Lubricator along with a spooler and drum to apply the correct umbilical MBR EAL approved grease and displace/remove any old grease and dirt from the umbilical armour.

APPLICATION

Armoured umbilicals

During a recent pre-mobilisation maintenance campaign for the T3200 trencher, 62.4mm & 45mm armoured umbilicals were inspected and lubricated. By using a spooler and drum with the correct umbilical MBR, EAL approved grease was applied at pressure through the Viper Mid Wire Rope Lubricator to penetrate and displace any old grease and dirt from the umbilical armour.

EQUIPMENT

  • VIPER Mid MKII Wire Rope Lubricator
  • Seals, Scrapers, Rope Cleaner for 62.4mm & 45mm umbilicals

RESULTS

The old grease deposits were simply removed prior to the umbilical entering the Viper Mid collar where it was then efficiently lubricated ready for its’ next deployment offshore.
