Cable Chutes

Cable integrity protection - Low-friction plate surfaces and roller configurations minimise stress on cable outer sheath materials while maintaining critical minimum bending radius requirements throughout overboarding operations

Enhanced crew safety - Robust designs eliminate manual cable handling during overboarding operations, reducing crew exposure to operational hazards in challenging offshore environments

Vessel deck equipment integration - Custom manufacturing matches your vessel deck layout, operational requirements, and cable specifications for seamless integration with existing equipment

Reduced installation downtime - Proven designs maintain cable protection throughout operations, eliminating delays caused by cable damage during overboarding procedures

Wide cable compatibility - Engineered to accommodate various cable products including HVAC and HVDC subsea cables with different diameter, weight, and minimum bending radius specifications

Robust Construction Standards
PASSER marine cable chutes are engineered to meet the highest offshore safety standards, ensuring seamless and secure cable transfer from vessel to seabed. As a critical component of any horizontal lay spread, our custom-built overboarding chutes are designed to meet the unique needs of each project.

Advanced Surface Technology
Whether you require low-friction plate surfaces or roller configurations, PASSER chutes can be tailored to accommodate a wide range of cable products. Our robust, proven designs maintain the integrity of your cables throughout operations, protecting your assets and minimising downtime.

Project-Specific Design Parameters
Chutes are designed and manufactured to match the vessel and deck layout, the type of operation, the cable outer sheath material, and important parameters such as MBR (Minimum Bending Radius), cable diameter, and weight. This ensures optimal performance for your specific subsea cable installation equipment requirements.

Complete System Integration
Our chutes integrate directly with carousel systems, tensioners, and other offshore construction equipment to provide unified cable handling throughout installation operations. Real-time monitoring capabilities ensure operational parameters remain within safe limits throughout overboarding procedures.

Low-Friction Plate Design - Engineered plate surfaces provide smooth cable transition during overboarding operations while maintaining precise control over cable positioning and bending radius requirements.

Roller Configuration Systems - Advanced roller designs accommodate heavier cables and provide enhanced protection for sensitive cable outer sheath materials during extended installation campaigns.

Custom Vessel Integration - Mounting and support systems engineered to match specific vessel deck layouts and operational constraints while providing the structural integrity required for safe overboarding operations.

Complete Engineering Control - We handle everything from structural analysis and cable compatibility studies through fabrication at our certified Klaipeda facilities and installation support, ensuring your chute system operates safely when it reaches your vessel.

Proven Track Record - With decades of experience in cable-laying equipment, PASSER continues to uphold the highest standards, delivering solutions that align with industry regulations and client specifications.
