Ellis Patents Single Hole Aluminium Cable Cleats

 

Thorne & Derrick are working with Ellis Patents to achieve cable cleat acceptance and project specification at the Yanbu Red Sea Refinery for end client Saudi Aramco. 

T&D have proposed Ellis Patents aluminium single cable cleats for retaining and supporting 34.5kV high voltage single core XLPE cables.

Project Spotlight: The Yanbu Export Refinery Project (YERP) is a new “grassroots” refinery with a capacity to process 400,000 bpd of Arabian Heavy crude and produce 90,000 bpd of gasoline, 263,000 bpd of ultra-low-sulfur diesel, 6,300 metric tons per day (mtd) of coke and 1,200 mtd of sulfur.

The new refinery will use existing Saudi Aramco facilities to receive crude oil and export the refined products. It will include refinery process units, utilities and interconnecting piping, associated feedstock and refined product storage, as well as offsite facilities necessary to support the safe and efficient operation of the refinery.
