Supergrip have successfully completed the engineering, manufacture and qualification testing of a range of subsea umbilical piggy-back clamps on a 4 week schedule.

Clamps and strapping systems were supplied for four different applications and locations with calibrated installation tooling included within the scope of supply.

Darren Blackburn, Director at Supergrip, said “The piggyback clamps were delivered on a fast track basis to ensure that the client could meet the planned installation weather window. They were supplied as a retrofit to be installed subsea to replace existing systems, from another supplier, that were experiencing problems. The full process included detailed engineering, documentation, mould production and product casting as well as client witnessed qualification testing on each assembly. This another example of what Supergrip can achieve due to our internal engineering and manufacturing capability.”
