Oil filled towed array hose without couplings

摘要: A long, continuous, constant diameter, neutrally buoyant oil filled line array hose without couplings comprising a plastic inner having layer of conducting and/or optical fibers wrapped helically around and bonded to the outer periphery along neutral axis thereof. strength member is encased within an sleeve which covers layer. Sensors are placed cavity through incisions formed at predetermined locations, attached layer, sensor-conductor junctions sealed with waterproof coating; then chemically sealed. The insulating providing devoid coupling members.
