Thorne & Derrick have specified and supplied LV and 11kV cable joints and cable terminations for ongoing installation on Apache’s Forties Field Upgrade in the North Sea. This has enabled the HV cable jointing and terminating to new switchgear connections at Forties Alpha (FA), Forties Bravo (FB) and Forties Charlie (FC) field.

The Forties Charlie heat shrink cable jointing and terminating package included 75off Low Voltage Fire Resistant Control Cable Joints (7-12 Core), 35off High Voltage Cable Joints 6.6kV 3 Core 16-185sqmm EPR/GSWB BS6883 Cables, 55off High Voltage Cable Joints 11kV 3 Core 35-185sqmm EPR/GSWB BS6883 and 75off High Voltage Cable Terminations for the 3 Core 6.6kV-11kV cables. This work was excecuted using SPS Heat Shrink Cable Joints and Cable Terminations.

In the hazardous area zones of the Forties Field, the contractor specified and installed over 50off 3M Cold Shrink Joints and Cable Terminations throughout. 3M Cold Shrink requires no "hot-working" for cable jointing and terminating in potentially explosive atmospheres. Hot-working poses serious dangers with respect to ignition sources in industrial and hazardous areas - air, naked flames and the presence of atmospheric combustible substances trigger the Ignition Triangle. Let 3M Take the Heat out of Hazardous Areas
