Sourced and supplied across Saudi Arabia
This page is the offshore overlay rather than an introduction to hazardous area equipment — for protection concepts, zones, gas groups and temperature classes see our explosion-proof enclosures page. What offshore adds is a second set of requirements that catches people out on a first package. Salt-laden air attacks enclosures and fasteners continuously, so restricted-copper aluminium alloys, 316 stainless and an operator-specified coating system become normal rather than an upgrade. Material may have to satisfy the marine or classification requirements of the installation alongside the Ex certificate, which is a separate approval with its own lead time. And there is a constraint no catalogue mentions: everything arrives by crane through a limited weather window, so lifted weight and dimensions are design inputs, and a package that cannot be lifted in one piece has to be split before it is built.
The more of this you send, the closer the first quotation lands.
| Certification basis | Zone, gas group, temperature class and scheme — the same as any Ex equipment |
|---|---|
| Installation type | Fixed platform, jack-up, FPSO, or an onshore terminal |
| Marine or class approval | State if the installation requires it alongside the Ex certificate |
| Ambient temperature range | The certificate is issued for a stated range |
| Corrosion category | Salt-laden atmosphere — it drives material and coating selection |
| Materials | 316 stainless, restricted-copper aluminium, or GRP |
| Coating system | The offshore paint specification the operator applies |
| Lifted weight and dimensions | Crane capacity and the lift window available |
| Split for shipping | State if the package must arrive in liftable sections |
| Inspection regime | The maintenance and inspection documentation required |
| Spares and consumables | What must be held offshore, where resupply is slow |
| Weather window | Crane availability and sea state limits on the delivery voyage |
| Preservation | Packing and desiccant for the voyage, lay-down and storage offshore |
