The invention relates to the field of cables for an offshore environment (known as “downhole cables”). More particularly, the invention relates to an electrical cable having an insulating multilayer structure based on fluorinated polymers and polyolefins. This structure is made up of multiple layers that are intercohesive and obtained by coextrusion. The invention also relates to the use of said cable as a drilling material for extracting petroleum or natural gas.

A terminal includes a conductor connecting part, a terminal connecting part, and a graphene film. When a first metal material and a third metal material forming a conductor of an electric wire have different ionization tendencies, the graphene film is provided to be arranged between a first surface and the conductor of the electric wire when the conductor of the electric wire is electrically connected to the conductor connecting part. When a second metal material and a fourth metal material forming a surface of an opposite terminal have different ionization tendencies, the graphene film is provided to be arranged between a second surface and the surface of the opposite terminal when the opposite terminal is electrically connected to the terminal connecting part.
