Unexpected failure of crucial systems is perhaps one of the biggest headaches on a rig. The resulting downtime and compromise of safety can be extremely costly. Heelix offers a full thermal imaging study of all crucial systems. Our infrared thermography service effectively troubleshoots key equipment such as motors, pumps, gearboxes, bearings, engines, generators, and electrical systems.
By utilizing imaging technology that goes beyond the capabilities of the naked eye, we can detect faults long before any symptoms have developed, presenting them in a form easily understood by on-board maintenance teams.
Our infrared thermography surveys are carried out by qualified engineers who are Level III Certified Thermographers as per the American Society for Non-destructive Testing (SNT-TC-1A) standards. Our engineers are trained and certified by the offshore Oil and Gas Industry, and each has completed the BOSIET (Basic Offshore Induction and Emergency Training).
The accommodation area plays a crucial role in the offshore workplace, providing a space for personnel to sleep, eat, socialize, engage in recreational activities, and rest. It also serves as a necessary respite for individuals exposed to high noise levels during their working hours.
Excessive noise within the accommodation area can have negative effects on recreational and restorative activities, impacting the health and well-being of offshore workers. This can result in decreased performance, productivity, and potential safety concerns, especially when noise disrupts sleep or communication. Therefore, it is vital to control noise levels within accommodation areas to ensure a safe and healthy environment for offshore workers.
Proper lighting is crucial for ensuring safe and efficient access, egress, and task performance in offshore environments. Adequate illumination levels are directly linked to task performance, and insufficient lighting can result in longer task durations and an increased likelihood of errors.
Beyond its functional aspects, lighting also plays a significant role in creating a visually suitable environment and can contribute to enhancing the overall atmosphere in offshore accommodation and work areas. Factors such as aesthetics, color, and the psychological effects of lighting should be considered when designing the lighting setup, particularly in living areas of offshore accommodation, as they can impact personnel comfort, satisfaction, and overall well-being.
In addition to luminance levels, there are various external factors that influence object visibility within the visual field. The study and application of lighting design in offshore environments is a complex field that requires careful consideration of multiple factors.
Personnel may spend in excess of 12 hours per day in offshore accommodation, and poor indoor air quality has the potential to result in significant adverse impacts on health as well as comfort.
Thermal comfort is defined in ISO 7730 as "...that condition of mind which expresses satisfaction with the thermal environment." The sensation of thermal comfort is, therefore, largely subjective and will vary from person to person. Due to differences in metabolism and expectations, there are distinct individual differences among people's perceptions of comfort in relation to temperature, humidity, and other atmospheric characteristics. Acclimatization, habits, and expectations influence perceived comfort.
These individual differences make it difficult to specify a single thermal environment that will be satisfactory to everyone. A thermal environment is, therefore, typically defined to be acceptable to at least eighty (80) percent of the occupants of an interior space.
