Description

The heating of oil pipelines at great water depths is a very specific and complex application field for electrical heating systems. An electrical heating system is absolutely essential to guarantee reliable, constant oil production for such a specific application.

The hot oil from the crude oil deposits cools down significantly in the considerably lower ambient temperatures found on the sea bed. There is a great risk of the emergence of wax and hydrate formations.

Deep Sea Star? prevents the emergence of wax and hydrate formations of the oil. The crude oil remains free-flowing ? regardless of the prevailing ambient conditions. Deep Sea Star is highly efficient and is really the right choice when it comes to heating your pipeline.
