US: To cater to industry demands, Trelleborg's offshore operation has consolidated its range of high performance thermal insulation materials to house them all under one brand, Vikotherm™.
"As sub-sea environments become more demanding, going deeper and further than ever before, temperatures and hydrostatic pressure become much greater," said Ben Wait, customer group manager with Trelleborg Offshore and Construction. "The demand for more sophisticated products that can cope with harsher environments is growing. This is certainly the case with our thermal insulation materials, so we've taken the strategic decision to group all of our solutions together to allow for easier product selection and ensure that all customer needs can be met in one place."
Trelleborg has supplied the subsea oil and gas industry for three decades, continuously researching to ensure that its products consistently meet the growing demands placed on them. As such, all solutions in the Vikotherm™ range will guarantee maintained flow rates, optimum productivity, reduced costs and protection against wax and hydrate formations. The featured products in the new portfolio include R2 and S1 materials, E1 and E2 epoxy syntactic foams, P7 non-mercury catalysed polyurethane, PT syntactic polypropylene tape, and G3 non-mercury syntactic polyurethane.
