Industrial equipment for oil and gas industry

Moving energy supply systems that function under extreme conditions


Dirt, saltwater, vibrations, extreme temperatures, high levels of mechanical stress and the risk of explosion are the most frequently occurring problems that impair the performance of drilling equipment and other devices used for oil and gas extraction. In such surroundings, where downtime is costly, energy chains from igus® offer the performance characteristics needed to ensure smooth and continuous operation.

Benefits of igus® products:
  • Systems supplier for complete systems
  • 100% corrosion-free, resistant to seawater and heavy duty tested
  • Maintenance-free for 24/7 use
  • Longer service life, e.g. compared to steel chains and service loops
  • Weight-saving of up to 70% compared with steel chains
  • Lower costs and increase safety of equipment
