In some examples, the electrical cable can include one or more insulated electrical conductors and one or more metallic elements cabled together and a metallic layer disposed about the one or more insulated electrical conductors and the one or more metallic elements. The one or more metallic elements can partially fill a space located between the one or more insulated electrical conductors and the metallic layer.

A skin effect heating system for long pipelines includes a heater cable disposed in a ferromagnetic or other conductive heat tube. A semiconductive jacket contacts the inner surface of the heat tube, where the charge density of the return current carried by the heat tube is at its highest. The semiconductive jacket material has a resistivity that is sufficiently low to reduce or eliminate arcing events such as corona discharge by allowing accumulated charge on the heat tube to dissipate. The resistivity is also high enough to prevent the return current from flowing into or through the semiconductive outer layer, so that heat production capacity of the system is maximized.

The invention relates to the skin-effect based induction-resistive heating units and can be used in devices intended for prevention of paraffin-hydrate deposits formation in oil-and-gas wells and pipelines, as well as for warming up of viscous products in pipelines and vessels for the purpose of their transporting and pumping. The skin-effect based heating cable contains the center conductor, the inner insulation layer and the ferromagnetic outer conductor coaxially located around them. The invention enables to simplify using due to increase of the heating cable flexibility and due to reduce the energy consumption at its operation.
