TLS Offshore Containers, a leading global supplier of standard and customized containerized solutions, utilizes Finite Element Analysis (FEA) in the design and validation of their blast resistant containers. These containers are essential in the oil and gas industry, providing safe and secure storage for personnel and equipment in hazardous areas. The use of FEA allows TLS engineers to simulate the effects of an explosion on the container and analyze how the structure responds, including the distribution of stresses and strains throughout the container. This allows for the identification of potential failure points and optimization of the design before the physical prototype is built. By testing the container under different loading conditions, the engineers can ensure that the container can withstand the intended loads and meet the highest safety standards. FEA also enables the analysis of nonlinear material behavior, such as plastic deformation, which is important in the design of blast resistant containers. Additionally, FEA allows for the evaluation of the container's response to a blast event in a virtual environment, reducing the need for costly and time-consuming physical testing. TLS Offshore Containers is committed to providing the highest quality products and services, and the use of FEA in the design of their blast resistant containers is a testament to this commitment. By utilizing advanced engineering techniques, such as FEA, they are able to create robust and reliable containers that meet the needs of their customers in the oil and gas industry. What is Finite Element Analysis (FEA)? Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a numerical method used to analyze the behavior of structures and materials under various loads and conditions. It is a computer-based simulation technique that breaks down a real-world object or structure into a large number of finite elements, each of which represents a small piece of the overall structure. FEA software is used to analyze the behavior of each element and how it is affected by the loads and conditions that are applied to the structure as a whole. The FEA process involves several steps:
What is blast resistant container? Blast resistant containers are designed to protect personnel and equipment from the effects of explosions and blasts. They are commonly used in the oil and gas industry, where they are placed around equipment and infrastructure to provide a barrier against explosions and blasts caused by gas leaks or other accidents. FEA can be used to analyze the behavior of blast resistant containers under various loads and conditions, including simulated blast loading. This can help engineers to understand how the container will behave in a real-world blast event and make any necessary design adjustments to improve its performance. The analysis can be used to determine the stresses, strains and deformation of the container under different loading scenarios, allowing designers to optimize the design of the container and make it more blast resistant. It can also be used to evaluate the performance of different materials and design options, such as the thickness of the walls and the use of reinforced corners. Using FEA in the design of blast resistant containers can help to ensure that they provide maximum protection for personnel and equipment, while also reducing the risk of injury or damage. What is the featured blast resistant container products of TLS?

The use of FEA in the design of this container ensures that it can withstand the effects of blasts and explosions while providing a comfortable and functional living and working environment. Its ability to be used in multiple scenarios makes it a versatile option for emergency housing and laboratory use. How to define a temporary Refuge (TR) shelter (or called as safe haven cabin | toxic gas refuge (TGR) | H2S temporary refuge shelter)? A temporary refuge is a place or shelter where personnel will be adequately protected from relevant hazards while they remain on an installation following a major incident, and from where they will have access to the communications, monitoring and control equipment necessary to ensure their personal safety, and from where, if necessary, safe and complete evacuation can be affected. The Temporary Refuge will switch HVAC from fresh air mode to full recirculation mode in case of potential toxic gas intrusion, fire damper closure activated by external gas detectors. The TR will also provide minimum breathable air concentration by air cylinders enough for above 1 hour or more. The Temporary Refuges is located to ensure the safety of personnel during the period of time that covers the call to muster until an incident has been investigated and controlled, or successful evacuation of the installation has been completed. The TR shelter have adequate medical and welfare facilities, as well as emergency communications. The TR shelter is designed for external installation with a supply duct to the TR area interior. The TR shelter control panel is designed to be installed internally within the TR area. When the TR shelter is operational, the shelter is designed as a fail-safe system, i.e. should the shelter sustain damage or an air seal leaks, then clean air will leak out of the shelter rather than contaminated air being drawn in. Why is the temporary refuge (TR) shelter (toxic gas refuge | safe haven cabin | H2S temporary refuge) needed? The most important purpose of a temporary refuge (TR) shelter (sometimes called as toxic gas refuge (TGR), safe haven cabin, H2S temporary refuge shelter, TR pressurization unit) is to keep the personnel safe. At a facility, such as chemical processing plant or a floating production storage and offloading (FPSO), or a floating vessel, offshore platform or a industrial manufacturer, there are typically large volumes of flammable and explosive chemicals being used, stored, proceeded and transported. These potentially dangerous situations should occur. Depending on toxicity or intensity of the chemicals, a chemical release or blast can cause severe effects to personnels. Toxic gases produced from an explosion or loss of containment can lead to disorientation, incapacitation, or death. The temporary refuge has the double functions as dayroom during normal operation and as Temporary Refuge in case of emergency. The TR is used as normal control room, office space or even canteen when operated in normal function. In the event of a blast or chemical release etc emergency condition, when evacuation is not possible, the temporary refuge shelter provides a safe alternative and are an essential part of emergency management. Installing temporary refuge shelters such as safe havens, shelter-in-place and toxic gas refuge shelter, is a mitigation control to reduce the loss of life, and damage to property and equipment, when preventative control fails. When it comes down to it, these temporary shelters help to improve survivability. In response, TLS temporary refuge shelter (toxic gas refuge shelter, or safe haven) offers a safe secure “go-to” area for personnel ranging from multiple to hundreds in the event of toxic chemical release, fire, explosion or other hazardous emergency scenarios. How does Temporary refuge (or toxic gas refuge) work? When escaping from hazardous areas, the temporary refuge shelter is activated via alarm scheduled during an emergency, which will serve as a shelter station for 1-4 hours or more hours. HVAC and positive pressure system protect personnel and equipment from critical outdoor conditions like explosion, chemical release including H2S, CH4 or other toxic gasses contamination, etc. The breathable atmosphere within the sealed temporary refuge shelter is provided to protect personnel.

The basic structure of a Motor Control Centre (MCC) is a metal cabinet divided into vertical sections that are isolated from each other. the MCC enclosure is usually NEMA or IP rated to protect against solid and liquid contaminants and if the working environment is harsh (e.g. dusty or hot), the MCC can be located in a remote location, away from the machine or equipment, or even in a separate, climate-controlled room. One of the basic functions of a motor control centre is power distribution, this is done via the horizontal main bus (which provides three phase power from the incoming line) and the vertical bus to each compartment. Common ratings for the horizontal bus range from 600A to 4000A, while the vertical bus is usually rated between 600A and 1500A. Most MCC's also include buses for the neutral and earth wires as standard. Each section of a motor control centre contains sub-sections (often called compartments) for bus bars, electrical trunking and equipment. Equipment compartments consist of one or more compartments containing installed hardware for starting and controlling the motor (e.g. contactors or motor starters), overload protection devices, fuses or circuit breakers for short-circuit protection and device forces for disconnection. The MCC shelter provided by TLS integrates sensors, fire and gas systems, intelligent PLC, fire dampers, air conditioners, etc. in a positive pressure container environment, which helps isolate the control systems in the MCC shelter from the external hazardous environment and facilitates the operation of surrounding systems.
