JDR Cable Systems is a prominent name in the design and manufacture of Custom-engineered, specialty, dynamic or static cable solutions used in subsea applications.

The company’s technological innovation strengths around cable design have been applied in many areas. These include the defence sector, seismic exploration and scientific projects.

Thinking ahead is a must for a player – like JDR - in competitive niches. Expertise and manufacturing skills amassed with a long track record are the success formula here, and the determined search for solutions (to any situation) benefits both the company and its clients.

Seismic Exploration

JDR has designed and manufactured umbilicals for more than 20 years. This has made us into a global leader in this speciality. Our engineering process is backed by massive experience/knowledge resources. This enables production of tailor-made umbilicals for all conceivable airgun configurations.

Tow leaders and airgun umbilicals are used for offshore seismic exploration and oceanographic research – generally undergoing the most physically demanding conditions. This makes performance and reliability critical in the chain of data acquisition.

JDR continually seeks to expand solid business relationships. In our view, partnerships with major seismic exploration operators spell valuable upcoming opportunities.
 

Defence Technology

Navies around the world use tow JDR’s cables for their various active or passive sonar systems. JDR Cable Systems can supply complete, fully terminated, torque balanced cable assemblies including underwater mateable connections.

JDR has built up the knowledge to combine several types of high quality strength members in a single cable setup. This gets the maximum out of drag reduction and tow strength. The systems are designed for operations requiring swift deployment and extreme reliability.

The combination of experience in application environments plus extensive project management makes JDR a dependable partner for major naval system suppliers.

ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicles)

These cables are used for "Work Class" systems, either to directly deploy the ROV or via TMS (Tether Management System) attached to the ROV.

The designs and manufacturing processes are optimized to give high flexibility, good durability, neutral buoyancy and minimum drag; all of these aid vehicle manoeuvrability, thus combining heavy duty tooling and specific sensing options. For this type of survey vehicles JDR focuses on developing one-off special solutions for tricky tow environments. We also offer integration of these products in a turnkey package including handling systems.

Innovation JDR constantly seeks R&D projects to which we add-on design and engineering force able to forge close relationships with clients – and provide added project value. JDR is flexible – more than flexible enough to set up a skilled design and engineering force while partnering external clients, pooling specific knowledge and industrial experience and scoring solid results.

Smart Solutions

This is JDR’s visiting card: leading edge technology employing knowledge based programs developed in-house, to enable the design and engineering of new concepts.

We constantly seek knowledge partners for cable technology, and in offshore market areas we are involved in several groups; this enables broad-scale, international discussion of innovative solutions.

24-hour service

JDR’s crew of multi-skilled Offshore Service Technicians is being expanded. This reflects the upward importance of short-time mobilisation.

JDR’s Service department comprises a versatile engineering team. They offer knowledge on all types of cable assemblies, in combination with the latest European offshore safety and survival training.

The broad service offering ranges from plain cable testing to complete system repairs. Close links between the OST and project departments ensure rapid solutions.
