Many people do not realize that offshore containers are for more than storing gas and oil products. In fact, offshore containers are used in more than just offshore sites these days. Many companies are taking advantage of investing in these containers due to their strict building, design, and manufacturing standards as well as their long-lasting durability in extreme conditions. Whether your business deals with offshore applications exclusively, or if you're looking for superior method of shipping via ocean vessels, then offshore containers are the best choice.
Beyond Petrochemicals
Offshore sites demand offshore containers -- they already know how rough the ocean can be, and how the salty air corrodes most materials. But they not only use their offshore containers to hold oil and gas products (such as in chemical tanks and offshore reefers), they use them to hold tools, pipes, metal bars, building materials, textiles, and other goods used at offshore drilling sites. Offshore containers can be used to hold over-height and off-dimension equipment as well, which is seen often at these places. During reconstruction efforts, offshore cutting skips are used to hold and dispose of debris and materials. The solid, 100% steel construction stands up to the deleterious effects of ocean mist and rough weather conditions, so no matter what is being stored, it is contained safely and securely.
Other Applications
Many industries are catching on to the usefulness and dependability of offshore containers. These containers have become quite popular with granaries and vehicle shippers. The granaries have begun using offshore containers to ship wheat, rice, oats, and other bulk items, either in dry offshore containers, bulk bags, or open tops (with the use of tarpaulins).
Other uses for offshore containers with intermodal applications are vehicles, building materials, textiles, tools, equipment, off-dimension items, pipes, steel bars, plastics, and food-grade items. Anything that you want to ship via ocean vessel can be placed in sturdy, offshore containers meant to take a beating on the high seas. Offshore containers are anything but ordinary -- and unlike standard shipping containers, they are not made with wood or polymers that deteriorate more quickly than rolled steel.
