A cross sectional drawing of the umbilical is included with this bid.




5. Design Methodology

The umbilical has been designed in accordance with national / international standards and Cortland rules that have been developed using the experienced gained over the last 30 years in supplying products to the Oil & Gas industry. The majority of the products supplied over this period have been for dynamic applications where the product is deployed and recovered from reeled systems or permanently installed in a dynamic (flexing) mode.

The materials used in manufacture of the umbilical and components have been chosen for use in a subsea environment and in many cases have a proven track record of 25 years use.

The umbilical breaking loads have been calculated using in house design packages that have been verified using the results of pull tests on product samples.

Umbilical and component lay angles and directions are determined using in house rules that have been validated using feedback from fatigue tests and in service data.

Cortland will conduct design analysis and stress analysis on the proposed design. This does not include application analysis such as installation, in-service configuration, sea-bed stability and dynamic analysis.

Cortland does not offer these services directly. Although we can outsource, it is recommended that where such analysis is required, the customer sources this independently as this will be more cost effective. Cortland can suggest contacts and will work with customers chosen supplier.




6. Umbilical Design

This umbilical has been designed to operate in the normal temperature range of -15C to +70C.

6.1 Umbilical Construction

The umbilical will be helically laid up using 360 degree planetary cabling machines. Fibre fillers are utilised to fill interstitial voids and avoid point loading of components during reeling operations and / or the action of external clamps.

6.2 Umbilical Jackets The umbilical sheaths provide mechanical protection and increase the bundle stability. The sheaths are applied as a continuously extruded thermoplastic layer. The sheath material will be free of contaminants, faults and other defects.

The umbilical inner & outer sheath will be an extruded layer of high density polyethylene. The inner sheath will provide the bedding layer for the armour layer. The inner sheath nominal thickness will be 2.5 mm.

The umbilical outer sheath will be an extruded layer of high density polyethylene to offer high abrasion / erosion resistance and low friction properties during installation. The outer sheath will be UV stabilised to reduce the effects of long term exposure to sun (UV light). For details of printing / marking, see Section 8.

The nominal diameter tolerance is +/- 2mm however it must be understood that the diameter can exceed this diameter tolerance at localised points during the extrusion process for a long length umbilical. The outer sheath nominal thickness will be 4.0 mm.

6.3 Armour Strength Member

The strength of the umbilical is provided by a multi-layer armour package consisting of galvanised high tensile steel wires which will provide minimum break strength of 500 kN. The armour package has been designed with a safety factor of 4:1, giving a working load of 125kN.

Armouring is applied in two contra-helical layers to achieve torsional balance. Torsional stability ensures that no adverse torque loads are placed on the umbilical components.

Armour wire is purchased generally in accordance with BS EN 10264-2.




7. Component Design & Manufacture

The umbilical contains the following components: 3 off 1/2 NB, 345 bar WP aramid reinforced hydraulic hoses (P/N : 1A08HP). 2 off 6.0 mm, screened twisted quad cables (P/N : SQ22112-A1).

7.1 Hose Design

The 1A hose range is constructed with a Methanol washed Nylon liner, reinforced with one aramid fibre braid, and then sheathed with a chemical resistant Polyester Elastomer outer cover. The hose is designed in accordance with the requirements of API 17E / ISO 13628-5 and SAE J517. This hose range does not contain a steel carcass and thus does not present a resistance to collapse when subject to external pressure. The hose must be fluid filled when deployed to prevent collapse.

The following figure illustrates the construction of the hydraulic hoses:

The following table summarises the key physical properties of the hoses used in the umbilical:

7.2 Hose Manufacture

The aramid reinforced hydraulic hoses shall be manufactured in accordance with the relevant sections of API 17E / ISO13628-5.

During the liner extrusion process, critical dimensions are measured and continuously recorded. The outside diameter is measured (in two planes) and wall thickness (in four positions) in accordance with API 17E / ISO 13628-5. Other extrusion parameters are closely controlled. Application of the aramid reinforcement is conducted under controlled conditions and in accordance with the requirements of API 17E / ISO 13628-5. Critical dimensions are again measured and continuously recorded at the sheathing stage with the outside diameter measured in two planes in accordance with API 17E / ISO 13628-5. Other extrusion parameters are closely controlled.




7.3 Cable Design

The electrical cables have been designed to operate in a highly dynamic mode, CORTLAND will utilise its long experience in the manufacture of dynamic cables for the ROV and military markets to optimise the cable design. The conductor construction and lay length of the assembly will be chosen to maximise fatigue life and enhance the electrical characteristics.

The electrical cables each contain 4 x 6.0 mm insulated conductors. The conductor will be insulated with cross-linked density polyethylene with radial thickness of 0.7mm (28 mils) in accordance with the requirements of API 17E / ISO 13628-5. The individual conductors will be colour coded.

The assembly is filled with a deformable silicone rubber compound to minimise the void spaces. The silicone rubber compound is intended to minimise assembly compressibility and, in some applications, minimise oil ingress when terminated into oil-filled junction boxes. It is not intended to provide water-blocking in the event of damage which compromises the water-tightness of the outer sheath, which is impractical in subsea umbilical applications due to the combination of salt water, high hydrostatic pressure and repeated flexure.

The cables will have a Vectran strength braid applied over the core assembly, followed by a polyethylene inner sheath, a copper screen braid, and then a final overall polyethylene sheath. The finished cable diameter will be 19.2mm.

The following table summarises the key physical properties of the cables used in the umbilical:

Conductor size / material

6.0 mm / multi stranded plain copper wire

Configuration Twisted quad

Reinforcement Vectran fibre braid Screen Copper / Polyester laminate tape and tinned copper wire braid

Rated voltage Uo/U = 0.6 / 1.0 kV DC resistance 1,000 Mohm.km Insulation material XLPE Outer sheath material Polyethylene Void filling compound Silicone Rubber Finished OD 19.2 mm

7.4 Cable Manufacture

The electrical cables shall be manufactured in-house at Cortlands facility.

The cross-linked polyethylene insulation shall be applied in a single pass over the copper conductor. The conductors will be spark tested in accordance with the requirements of BS 5099 during the insulation operation.

The insulated conductors will be subjected to a soak (immersion) test in water for 22 hours. HV and insulation resistance tests will be performed whilst the cores are immersed in the water tank. This standard test is included in the umbilical cost. If required the individual insulated conductors can be hydrostatically pressure tested to 500psi followed by HV and insulation resistance testing whilst the cores are under pressure. This shall be undertaken at additional cost if required by client.

The insulated conductors shall be laid-up with a high helix angle in a quad arrangement. The tension on each insulated core shall be carefully controlled throughout the lay-up process. Silicone rubber compound is applied to the cabled assembly immediately after the twisting head followed by an overlapped polyester tape binder.

The taped cable assembly is over braided with Vectran fibre to provide reinforcement and strength in tension.

A solid polyethylene inner sheath is applied over the Vectran braided assembly to provide a smooth, circular finish.




Multiple tinned copper drain wires are braided over the inner sheath, followed by an overlapped copper-polyester laminate tape applied copper side inwards. The copper-polyester tape provides the electrical screening for the cable and shall be continuous over the entire cable length. The tinned copper drain wires are in contact with the copper side of the tape and provide a means to terminate the screen at the cable end as required.

A final polyethylene outer sheath is applied over the electrical screen to provide a smooth, circular finish. Critical dimensions are measured and continuously recorded at the sheathing stage with the outside diameter measured in two planes in accordance with API 17E / ISO 13628-5. Other extrusion parameters are closely controlled. This ensures that the cable diameter shall be suitable for the subsequent electrical connector termination.

7.5 Component Identification

Each individual component shall be marked with Cortland, batch number, working pressure rating, manufacturers part number and line number.

Tail ends shall have Critchley marker tags fitted indicating line number.




8. Umbilical Marking

Continuous print shall be included on the umbilical outer sheath to serve as identification for the umbilical and also act as a twist indication stripe. The identification printing shall be black to provide a high visible contrast against the yellow outer sheath. Minimum character text height shall be 10.0 mm. A trial will be carried out during manufacture to establish that a 10.0 mm text height maintains legibility on an umbilical of this size. The printing shall be applied with an inkjet printer head situated after the extruder cooling bath. The continuous print shall read as follows:

CORTLAND OH0XXX [JOB NUMBER]

Printed depth/length marks shall be included every 10m along the entire length of the umbilical.

Alternative print details can be accommodated providing these are communicated to Cortland at time of order.

It should be noted that print adhesion to polyethylene sheathing materials is difficult. Whilst print life is generally sufficient for installation purposes and static use of the umbilical, we do not consider this to be permanent marking.

Contrasting tape bands can be applied at specified sequential length increments. This shall be undertaken at additional cost if required by client. Alternatively, contrasting numbered tape bands can be applied at specified sequential length increments. This shall be undertaken at additional cost if required by client.

A diverless J-Tube seal assembly is included. The seal assembly shall comprise a metal clamp body incorporating polyurethane passive sealing elements. Sealing is achieved by deformation of the sealing elements, Diver or ROV intervention is not required subsea.

All metalwork and fasteners shall be manufactured from super duplex stainless steel, to allow for long term subsea service (i.e. full design life) without the requirement for a cathodic protection system.

The diverless J-Tube seal must be assembled on deck during umbilical installation at the exact position on the umbilical outer sheath.

A VBR or bend stiffener is not included. Cortland advise that the umbilical is supported with sand bags (or similar) on exit from the J-Tube bell mouth, to prevent the umbilical dynamic minimum bend radius being compromised during service.

The J-Tube has currently been assumed as 12 Nom OD with a 1/2 wall thicknesses. Please note that a change in size may have a technical and commercial impact. A J-Tube size below 10 may prevent pull-in of the umbilical.

Please note that an ROV compatible solution has been offered in compliance with the client specification. An alternative diver compatible solution can be offered and would provide a significant cost reduction.

Diver J-Tube Seal - OPTION

A J-Tube seal assembly is designed to be installed by a Diver. It shall consist of 2 off polyurethane compression seals, sandwiched between 3 off compression plates. 8 off compression studs route through the entire assembly and extend to allow for access by the Diver at the end of the J-Tube bellmouth.




All metalwork shall be manufactured from super duplex stainless steel, to allow for long term subsea service (i.e. full design life) without the requirement for a cathodic protection system.

The initial assembly shall be undertaken on the vessel prior to deployment. The j-tube seal to be positioned at a nominal point back from final position, to allow for subsequent adjustment by the diver. Transition area shall be fully greased prior to deployment to aid subsequent movement.

J-tube seal to be assembled in-situ. 8 off studs shall be screwed into threaded rear plate. The compression seals and plates shall then be slid on in order, ensuring that none of the split gaps coincide with the adjacent plate. The compression nuts shall be initially fastened hand tight + 1/2 turn, whilst ensuring that seals can still slide over the greased transition area.

Following deployment, the j-tube seal assembly shall be slid into the final position by the diver. The compression nuts shall be tightened to create the seal onto the outer sheath of the umbilical and the inside surface of the j-tube.

A VBR or bend stiffener is not included. Cortland advise that the umbilical is supported with sand bags (or similar) on exit from the J-Tube bell mouth, to prevent the umbilical dynamic minimum bend radius being compromised during service.

The J-Tube has currently been assumed as 12 Nom OD with a 1/2 wall thicknesses. Please note that a change in size may have a technical and commercial impact. A J-Tube size below 10 may prevent pull-in of the umbilical.




10. Transportation & Packing

Standard testing is included in our pricing. Additional electrical testing such as transmission line characteristics, cross talk and TDR can be performed if required by the client.

11.4 Hose Filling and Flushing

The hoses and jumper shall be filled with Marston Bentley HW443 hydraulic control fluid. The system shall be flushed and inspected to a cleanliness level of NAS1638 class 6. Please note that Cortland can conform to the equivalent cleanliness standards with AS4059 and ISO4406 if required.

11.5 Verification Test Program

It is noted that the client specification (document number NCS2-PVE-FD-1-00-07-SP-003) calls for additional umbilical verification tests to be performed. The following tests are included in Cortlands offer.

Description Standard Tensile and torque test ISO 13628-5 / API 17E Section 10 Crush test ISO 13628-5 / API 17E Section 10

Testing will be conducted post production on samples of the umbilical manufactured during the main production run. It is generally detrimental to cost and lead time to manufacture pre-production samples for the purpose of testing.

External hydrostatic pressure testing of the umbilical, as requested in the client specification (document number NCS2-PVE-FD-1-00-07-SP-003), is not included in Cortlands offer. This type of testing is considered unnecessary at the project water depth given.

The client specification (document number NCS2-PVE-FD-1-00-07-SP-003) also makes reference to burst testing, please note that this is detailed in the hose qualification data, which will be included in the final Cortland project documentation pack.

11.6 Tensile Test

This test will be carried out at an independent test house. A 6.0 m sample of the umbilical will be terminated into armour bodies at either end in the same manner as the production umbilical, leaving tails accessible to allow hydraulic and electrical testing where applicable. (N.B. Mild steel armour bodies may be used to reduce cost.)




The sample will be subjected to pre-testing to confirm correct function which will include a pressure decay test to 1.5 x working pressure for hydraulic components and electrical testing including continuity, conductor resistance and insulation resistance and fibre optic testing, as applicable.

The umbilical will then be loaded to the specified working load with the hoses unpressurised via pulling plates bolted to the armour bodies at either end. The load will then be released and post-testing will occur, consisting of a repeat of the pre-testing to verify that no damage has occurred.

If required, the umbilical will then be subjected to a tensile load with the hoses unpressurised until a mechanical failure occurs or the maximum safe load of the testing equipment is reached, whichever is soonest.

11.7 Crush Test

This will be carried out in accordance with the requirements of ISO13628-5 to establish reduction in diameter of the umbilical. A nominal 4.0 metre length of umbilical will be terminated (hose ends only) and loaded into the crush test rig. The crush test rig shall comprise of two parallel plates each a minimum of 250mm in length and located diametrically opposite each other in a compressive loading device. The plates shall then be moved towards each other at a rate not exceeding 5 mm/min.

The reduction in umbilical diameter between the load plates shall be continuously recorded as a function of the applied load until a 10% reduction in the umbilical y-axis is recorded. The plates shall be moved apart at a rate not exceeding 5mm/min. When the load is reduced to zero, the sample shall be section and visually examined. The effects of the applied load on the umbilical and the function components shall be noted.

The test can be conducted pressurised or unpressurised. Cortland recommend that the test is carried out unpressurised as this represents the worst case scenario and pressurisation of the hoses will significantly increase the test duration.

7.9 Electrical Flying Lead Clarification Please note that an ROV compatible solution has been offered in compliance with the client specification. An alternative diver compatible solution can be offered and would provide a significant cost reduction.




Section Heading Status Clarification/Exception 7.10 Splice/Repair Kit Exception Splice repair kits are not included in Cortlands offer.

Splice repair kits are generally not compatible with short length SSIV umbilicals in shallow water, as there is insufficient length to recover the umbilical and carry out the repair on a surface support vessel. It should be noted that any splice repair kit design would not be suitable for spooling onto an installation reel whilst maintaining the full tensile capability of the umbilical due to the length of the rigid splice section. Should the confirmed umbilical length be sufficient to allow for a full umbilical repair then Cortland can offer splice repair kits and spare length at this time.

7.11 Spare Length Exception A spare length is not included in Cortlands offer. It is assumed that the spare length is intended to be used in conjunction with the splice repair kits, therefore, please refer to above exception on splice repair kits.

8 Umbilical Components

8.2 Hoses Clarification The hoses in the umbilical must be fluid filled when deployed and in service to prevent collapse. The hoses do not contain a steel carcass and thus do not present a resistance to collapse at 150m seawater depth unless fluid filled with project control fluid.

9 Analysis

9.1 Static Loads Clarification Cortland will determine the listed umbilical characteristics using in house rules that have been validated using feedback from fatigue tests and in service data. This information will be provided after order placement, with the exception of on bottom stability. This is not included in Cortlands offer. Cortland does not offer this service directly. Although we can outsource, it is recommended that where such analysis is required, the customer sources this independently as this will be more cost effective.

11 Testing Requirements 11.1 Design Qualification Testing Clarification External hydrostatic pressure testing of the umbilical is

not included in Cortlands offer. This type of testing is considered unnecessary at the project water depth given. A record of burst testing is included in the hose qualification data, which will be included in the final Cortland project documentation pack.

manufactured from 316 stainless steel (uncoated). Main SUTU body shall be manufactured from S355 carbon steel with a coating system certified to Norsok M-501 System 7B (DNV-RP-B401 Category III). Carbon steel is generally used for subsea structural applications, when used in conjunction with a paint system and a cathodic protection system. Precision machined items such as connectors, stab plates, couplers and potted umbilical termination are the exception to this. These items are manufactured from bare super duplex stainless steel, duplex stainless steel, Nitronic stainless steel and 316 stainless steel respectively. All aforementioned items are linked back to the cathodic protection system, with the exception of the super duplex connectors (designed for service life in isolation).

75 Umbilical Repair Kits Exception Splice repair kits are not included in Cortlands offer. Splice repair kits are generally not compatible with short length SSIV umbilicals in shallow water, as there is insufficient length to recover the umbilical and carry out the repair on a surface support vessel. It should be noted that any splice repair kit design would not be suitable for spooling onto an installation reel whilst maintaining the full tensile capability of the umbilical due to the length of the rigid splice section. Should the confirmed umbilical length be sufficient to allow for a full umbilical repair then Cortland can offer splice repair kits and spare length at this time.

76 Size of J-Tube Clarification The J-Tube has currently been assumed as 12 Nom OD with a 1/2 wall thicknesses, complete with a 12 Class 150 flange. Please note that a change in size may have a technical and commercial impact. A J-Tube size below 10 may prevent pull-in of the umbilical.

Note 4 Stainless steel tubing Exception Stainless steel tubing used in the hydraulic TUTU shall be accordance with thickest available Swagelok tubing (1.65mm thick). This is suitable for the pressure rating of the system.
