Submar West Africa - Solutions

         While you will know your particular needs, we can offer some suggestions on using articulated mats.

    All mats:

    • Easily transported along the West Coast of Africa on barges
    • Easily stored by stacking
    • Reusable. In some situations, where they have not become an integral part of the environment, the mats can be moved and stored for future use
    • Loops on mats allow for easily connecting mats or anchoring
    • Individual blocks can be removed, allowing larger vegitation plantings, with compromising the integrity of the mat (talk to us first, please)
    • Mat design allows for water to drain through in both directions, reducing hydrostatic pressures
    • Can be supplied with Submar's patented Non-Shielding, Non-Abrasive pads
    • Ultra violet (UV) stabilized copolymer extruded fiber rope - extremely durable and will not rust
    • ASTM rated materials
    • Standardized Sizes / Field Adjustable
    • Reusable & Durable, Laceable, Economical, Lifting straps on all 4 sides
    • Inventoried

    Erosion Control and Onshore Pipeline Protection

         For most onshore and some offshore erosion control situations you should use our 4.5in (11.45cm) Revetment Mats.

    • Grade preparation time and costs are reduced due to the flexible properties of the mats
    • In many cases, the mats become an integral part of the environment, blending in and enhancing both the stability of the area and allowing for vegetation to gain a foothold
    • We can provide engineering expertise to aide you with your project and work with your team on finding the best Submar Nigeria product for the job
    • Geotextile fabrics can be used to further stop soil migration

    Seperation, Stabilzation and Protection of Offshore Pipelines and other Structures

         Use the 9in (22.85cm) Construction Mats for offshore applications or for greater protection:

    • Easily installed by Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV), divers using a handling frame or Submar's patented extreme deep water mechanical handling frame
    • Allows for self-silting and adds to the underwater environment (home for undersea wildlife)
    • By combining mat thicknesses, can meet requirements for pipe seperation
    • Weight keeps pipes or other structures in place and stable
