Operational cost savings with Dyneema®, ’the world’s strongest fiberTM’ DSM’s HMPE, branded as Dyneema®, has a proven track record in ropes for the offshore industry, offering a unique combination of extreme strength, light weight and narrow diameter necessary for towing arrays, slings, rig mooring, deep-sea installations and offshore positioning. In an increasing number of projects Dyneema® is replacing conventional steel-wire and synthetic ropes where high strength and low weight/mass are important.
Discom’s history goes back more than thirty years. From that time our field of work has broadened considerably. Starting out as a supplier of silencers we have grown into an all-round specialist in exhaust systems. At Discom, noise limitation, reduction of hazardous emissions and waste heat recovery go hand in hand. That combination of expertise is unique. Integrating knowledge in these specialist fields enables us to coordinate systems precisely. This has all kinds of significant benefits, namely the retention of optimal performance, a more efficient development process, more effective responses to the possibilities and impossibilities during the integration phase and clarity for the customer, total system guarantee and this all with just one point of contact. Our expertise in complete exhaust systems for the maritime industry (inland- and seagoing vessels and navy ships) has been built up over three decades. Not only should you expect Discom to provide clear advice on how to keep noise and vibrations in line with the prevailing standards, but also to advise and assist with regulating the emission of exhaust gases. That combination of expertise means you can leave all the aspects of the exhaust system in the hands of a single specialist who guarantees optimal integration of inlet silencer, exhaust silencer, spark arrestors and mounting elements. We are specialists in both dry and ’wet’(water injected) exhaust systems and waste heat recovery systems. We also have a reputation of being a supplier with a keen eye for innovative techniques which increase performance or efficiency. Our own activities in the field of research and development help to create systems able to fulfil almost any demand.
Thanks to a presence in the world’s major industry hubs we are able to respond rapidly to clients’ needs wherever they may occur. Each of the DGI members is ISO certified and works according to stringent, internationally recognised quality standards. Specialties include hydraulic and pneumatic system engineering and production, innovative oil filtration solutions, sampling systems, wellhead control systems, helicopter refuelling systems, winch systems, heave compensation systems and valve automation. Next to being a distribution partner for worldwide recognised A-brands for the EMEA region, we have brought an own range of proprietary technologies on the market under brand names such as RMF Systems and SITE. From service locations in all three key maritime areas, we offer worldwide services from commissioning and after-sales support to preventive maintenance, inspections, repairs or delivery of spare parts. To meet temporary requests for additional capacity, or for temporary replacement of existing systems, we offer rental equipment that can optionally be operated by our service engineers, including hydraulic power units, flushing units, power packs, condition- monitoring units, off-line filtration units and vacuum dehydration purifying units. ’DGI: an experienced group of technology innovators!’

NETHERLANDS OIL & GAS CATALOGUE 2014
Deeper waters As the world’s demand for energy intensifies, and platforms move farther offshore and into deeper, more-challenging environments, it is crucial to have ropes that not only can withstand additional stresses but also are easy to transport and maneuver. For scenarios such as ultra-deep moorings or ultra-deep installations, lines made from conventional steel wire and other synthetics become too heavy or bulky and difficult to handle. In 2012 DSM Dyneema introduced Dyneema® Max Technology, which enables permanent moorings with Dyneema® fiber. Because Dyneema® fiber is so much stronger than steel, lines of similar diameter and strength weighs only one-seventh as much as steel wire. Offshore applications for Dyneema® fiber include mooring ropes, installation lines, lifting slings, turret pull-in ropes, stinger ropes, anchor retrieval lines and riser tensioning ropes. Industry partnerships DSM Dyneema values its cooperation and partnerships with leading rope manufacturers and continuously works towards improvements and application developments for the marine industry, including offshore, fishing, aquaculture, lifting, salvage, mooring and towing. To support this endeavor the company has its own well-equipped testing facilities and is constantly collaborating with institutes, customers and end users. DSM Dyneema is ISO certified and its fiber SK78 is the only high-modulus polyethylene fiber approved by Bureau Veritas and the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) for MODU mooring systems.
