This being the case, it was not too long before we started discussing how we may be able to assist OILGEAR Towler Ltd with their onsite cabling and containment requirements for the various Gullwing project hydraulic and control systems.
Working closely with OILGEAR Towler Ltd, we started the MEICA cabling and containment installation in October 2023. The installation involved the supply of power & control cables, cable containment materials, cable termination materials & various other materials as required.
All cabling installed & connected strictly in accordance with OILGEAR Towler Ltd electrical schematic & connection drawings. Each cable installation being meticulously checked & tested on completion of its termination, against the supplied drawings etc.
