Protection For Electrical Systems
The power to prevent and protect
The only solution in the world that can solve and prevent subsea electrical issues without the need for subsea intervention. Protect the health of your critical systems with our intelligent technologies.
Advanced Subsea Techology
The world's only intervention-free subsea electrical solution
We know that every electrical network experiences gradual insulation degradation, particularly in harsh or subsea environments. Our V-LIFE technology provides a proactive solution by restoring electrical performance, improving insulation health, and protecting systems against water ingress and water treeing. We enable operators to extend asset life and maintain safe, reliable operation without costly intervention.
Patented Technology
Solution overview & technology explained
We developed V-LIFE as the world’s first and only technology capable of remotely improving the electrical integrity of subsea and sealed cable systems. Activated through our installed cable monitoring hardware, V-LIFE applies a unique conditioning process that removes conductive seawater ingress from insulation systems and restores insulation resistance to safe, operable levels.
We know that waiting until failure occurs often leads to complex subsea intervention campaigns, challenging logistics, and extended downtime. Instead, we use V-LIFE to prevent failures from escalating, protect against future degradation, and buy valuable time for operators. This makes it an indispensable tool for safeguarding the reliability and safety of subsea assets.

Be V-LIFE Ready
Prevent and protect in practice
We know that electrical degradation is inevitable, but with V-LIFE we can prevent failures from causing production loss and protect systems against ongoing deterioration. By installing our monitoring hardware in advance, we ensure operators are always V-LIFE Ready, able to activate protection before faults impact production.
We enhance this further through connected systems. Using our data analytics platform, we provide insight into degradation trends and enable remote V-LIFE activation when required. This proactive approach reduces operational risk, supports predictive maintenance, and delivers confidence in system performance across the full asset lifecycle.

Protection in Harsh Environments
Proven performance in critical industries
We have proven V-LIFE across the global subsea oil and gas industry, restoring electrical integrity across thousands of kilometres of umbilicals and power cables while preventing costly intervention campaigns. We see the same benefits extending to sectors such as marine, renewables, and industrial automation, where uptime and safety are equally critical.
As electrification accelerates across new industries, we continue to position V-LIFE as the only technology capable of remotely restoring, protecting, and prolonging the life of subsea electrical systems. Through this approach, we help operators stay connected, safe, and confident in the integrity of their electrical infrastructure.

Case Study
Restoring subsea cable integrity without intervention
In a mature offshore field, we addressed declining cable integrity that was increasing the risk of unplanned outages. By installing V-LIM across key control systems, we delivered continuous Insulation Resistance visibility, accurate trend analysis, and earlier detection of degradation. This reduced operational risk, improved energisation confidence, and enabled a shift from reactive repair to proactive, data-driven maintenance by activating V-LIFE.
FAQs
Find answers to common questions about how we protect electrical systems from degradation and failure without costly intervention.
What problem does Protection for Electrical Systems address?
It addresses insulation degradation in sealed and subsea electrical systems, preventing faults caused by water ingress and insulation breakdown before they lead to failure.
How does Viper protect electrical systems without intervention?
Viper applies a remote conditioning process through installed monitoring hardware, restoring insulation resistance without subsea intervention or hardware replacement.
Do systems need to be prepared in advance?
Yes. Installing compatible monitoring hardware early ensures systems are V-LIFE Ready and able to activate protection when degradation is detected.
Is this solution only suitable for subsea environments?
While proven in subsea applications, the protection principles are equally relevant to other sealed or moisture-prone electrical systems.
How does this reduce operational risk?
By preventing degradation from escalating into failure, operators avoid costly interventions, unplanned downtime, and safety risks.
