NjordGuard protects offshore windfarm power cables

By Paul Dvorak | June 30, 2016

NjordGuard is an innovative protection system designed and developed to protect offshore windfarm power cables in both monopile and J-tube applications.

NjordGuard installation

NjordGuard is an innovative protection system designed and developed to protect offshore windfarm power cables in both monopile and J-tube applications.

To improve safety and reduce installation complexity, the device can be installed, removed and reused without Remote Operating Vehicles (ROVs) or driver intervention.

Monopile & J-Tube capable: NjordGuard design permits both a monopile and J-Tube installation for wind-turbine generators and offshore substation platforms without procedural variation.

Integrated & configured for minimal assembly effort: The device requires minimal assembly. A primary external dual stiffener is factory cast directly onto a connector and an internal stiffener can be supplied pre-assembled. Only the external tail must be attached with Trelleborg’s novel connection system (patent pending).

Approved materials: NjordGuard uses API 17L certified Uraduct materials for both internal and external components. Uraduct has an established reputation as the industry standard for cable and flowline protection.
