An umbilical for transfer of fluids and electric current/signals between the sea surface and equipment deployed on the sea bed, in particular in deep waters, is disclosed. The umbilical comprises a number of pipes and electric conductors/wires collected in a bundle, a filler material lying at least partly around and between the pipes and the conductors/wires, and a protective sheath enclosing the pipes, conductors/wires and filler material. The load carrying elements of the umbilical are light weighted rods of composite material that can either be collected in bundles or appear individually or in a combination thereof. |
