MUMBAI, India, Oct. 31 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202547094973 A) filed by Shell Internationale Research Maatschappij B. V., Hague, Netherlands, on Oct. 3, for 'mineral insulated cable, method of manufacturing a mineral insulated cable, and method and system for heating a substance.'
Inventor(s) include Arora, Dhruv; and Burns, David Booth.
The application for the patent was published on Oct. 31, under issue no. 44/2025.

The cylindrical wall is surrounded by an electrically insulating layer which includes a mineral material. The cylindrical wall is made of a metal material having a resistivity of at least 0.05 O m at 20 C. The semi-conducting filler is in electrical contact with said wall along a substantial length of the resistive tube. The semi-conducting filler has an electric bandgap that is smaller than an electric bandgap of the mineral material of the electrically insulating layer. A current may be passed through the core at high voltage, to generate up to 15kW per meter of cable in heat."
The patent application was internationally filed on Feb. 27, 2024, under International application No.PCT/EP2024/054886.
