UAE Prysmian Displays Cable Solutions for Oil & Gas Industry at ADIPEC 2012

Prysmian Group, world leader in the energy and telecom cables and systems industry, will showcase its state-of-the-art range of products and technologies, specifically dedicated to the Oil & Gas sector, at ADIPEC 2012 that will take place in Abu Dhabi from November 11 to 14 (Hall 2, booth 2020).

Prysmian Group’s product portfolio at ADIPEC 2012 will focus on a wide range of cable solutions for the Oil & Gas industry, which incorporates complex and integrated power, control and instrumentation systems for chemical, petrochemical, power or industrial plants. The showcase will include innovative solutions such as Bostrig™ Type P, Drylam™ and Airguard™ Cable System, designed for critical environments, with enhanced resistance to hydrocarbons and moisture aggression, reduced diameters and lower environmental impact vs. lead-sheathed cables and with increased mechanical protection, lighter weight, improved flexibility and shorter installation times compared to traditional armoured cables. To complete the available portfolio FP® fire resistant cables, SURF products (Subsea Umbilicals, Risers and Flowlines) – both Steel and Thermoplastic, as well as flexible pipes for offshore oil and gas extraction – and Submarine cable solutions will also be on display.

ADIPEC – the leading oil and gas event in the Middle East and a gateway to the entire Gulf area – represents an excellent opportunity for Prysmian Group to strengthen its presence in the Region, where the Group boasts already a long standing tradition of involvement in some of the most important, strategic and technologically advanced projects in the OGP industry such as the Shah Gas processing plant and the EMAL aluminium smelter in Abu Dhabi, the QAFCO fertilizer and the Ras Laffan Olefin Plant in Qatar, and the Rabigh Development project in Saudi Arabia.

The 2012 edition of ADIPEC comes at a time of key developments for the Group after the merger between Prysmian and Draka that has led to the creation of the largest cable maker in the world. “ We are ready to face the fast-growing market challenges offered by the Gulf Region with a renovated organisation based on the territory and the strong support of our global expertise, track record and reliability” states Fréderic Grosse Vice President and Head of Prysmian’s Oil & Gas Business Unit.

“The Middle East, where the Group has already carried out several strategic power cable projects, is in fact a key area for the Company’s expansion strategy, especially in the Oil & Gas industry, where special products and services are required”, adds Tom Roberts, OGP BU Sales Manager responsible for the Middle East.
