VIDEO: VBMS unveils resin-free cable hang-off

NETHERLANDS: Cable installation specialist VBMS has unveiled a new type of cable hang-off that removes the need to use potentially harmful resins.

UK cable designers Kintech Energy designed the new hang-off, using layers of components bolted together.

The solution is also reusable, meaning less waste if a cable needs replacing, VBMS said.

According to VBMS, Vattenfall Wind has shown an interest in the design for its Horns Rev 3 project, due to be installed off Denmark next year.
