Deep Down Inc. has completed its first steel tube umbilical for a major oil and gas operator in the Gulf of Mexico, the company announced.
The umbilical, which is based on the company’s patented non-helical design, was tested and manufactured at the company’s Channelview, Texas, facility during 1Q 2013 and is scheduled for deployment offshore during 2Q 2013.
“We are able to offer our customers a steel infield umbilical in any standard configuration of electrical, optical, or hydraulic up to 10 miles long, fabricated anywhere in the world more economically and in less time than traditional manufacturing techniques,” Deep Down CEO Ron Smith said in the release. “The demand for steel tube umbilicals in 2013 remains strong and is projected to surpass 2012’s annual sales of $350 million.”
