Offshore containers are used in the oil and gas industry to transport equipment, supplies, and materials to offshore platforms and drilling sites. These containers are designed to withstand harsh weather conditions, rough handling during transportation, and high loads during lifting and stacking. TLS Offshore Containers International is a leading provider of offshore container solutions, and their containers undergo rigorous Finite Element Analysis (FEA) structure analysis to ensure their safety and durability.

FEA is a computational method that analyzes the behavior of structures under various conditions by dividing the structure into small, interconnected elements. Each element is analyzed individually, and the results are combined to obtain the overall behavior of the structure. FEA is widely used in engineering design and analysis to optimize designs, reduce costs, and improve performance.

TLS Offshore Containers International uses FEA to analyze their offshore containers to ensure they meet the strict safety and performance requirements of the oil and gas industry. FEA enables them to evaluate the structural integrity of the containers under various loads, including lifting, stacking, and impact loads. This analysis helps them identify potential weaknesses in the design and make necessary modifications to improve the container's strength and durability.

The FEA process starts with creating a 3D model of the container in a computer-aided design (CAD) software. The model includes all the components of the container, such as the frame, walls, roof, floor, and door. The model is then divided into small elements, and the material properties of each element are specified. The loads that the container is expected to experience during transportation and handling are also specified.

The FEA software then solves equations based on the specified loads and material properties to calculate the stresses and deformations in each element of the container. These results are combined to obtain the overall stress and deformation of the container. The results are compared to the allowable stress and deformation limits specified by industry standards and regulations, such as DNV 2.7-1, EN 12079, and CSC.

If the stress and deformation values are within the allowable limits, the container design is deemed safe and suitable for use. If the values exceed the allowable limits, modifications are made to the design to improve the container's strength and durability. These modifications may include changes to the material properties, thickness, or geometry of the container components.

FEA enables TLS Offshore Containers International to optimize their container designs to meet the specific needs of their customers while ensuring their safety and durability. The use of FEA also reduces the need for physical testing, which saves time and costs in the design and development process. Furthermore, FEA allows for rapid iteration of designs, enabling TLS Offshore Containers International to quickly evaluate different design options and choose the most optimal one.

In conclusion, FEA is a powerful tool that enables TLS Offshore Containers International to analyze and optimize their offshore container designs for safety and durability. The use of FEA ensures that their containers meet the strict industry standards and regulations and can withstand the harsh conditions of the oil and gas industry. By leveraging FEA, TLS Offshore Containers International can continue to provide innovative and reliable offshore container solutions to their customers.

​Forced air-cooling technology is mature, and air duct design is the key point.
The main point of the design of forced air-cooling technology is to control the air duct to change the wind speed: due to the different energy density and capacity of the batteries in the energy storage system, the battery placement and arrangement structure are different, so the air duct inside the energy storage system needs to be customized design. The air duct can control the direction and path of the air flow, and conduct heat exchange on the surface of the basic battery cells by guiding the cold and warm air generated by the air conditioner and the fan into the interior of the battery module. At present, energy storage systems mostly adopt the thermal management scheme of air conditioning + cooling duct air supply. The air duct is mainly divided into serial ventilation and parallel ventilation, and the parallel ventilation has better uniformity.

The air duct design includes: the main air duct connected to the outlet of the air conditioner, the wind baffle inside the main air duct, the air duct outlet and the wind baffles at both ends of the battery rack. The main air duct is used to transport the output airflow of the air conditioner to the outlets of each air duct: the windshield in the main air duct can distribute the gas flow of each air duct outlet to ensure that the flow of each outlet is consistent; the windshields at both ends of the battery rack are used to prevent airflow Escape from the gap between the battery rack and the inner wall of the container.
​
The air cooler control system includes air conditioner control and battery module fan control: the air conditioner control determines the cooling and heating by judging the internal temperature of the container, and the battery module fan control can adjust the temperature of a single battery.

Smart pressurized containers can be used to store and transport MCC equipment, providing a clean, dry and safe environment for sensitive electronics. Containers can be pressurized to keep out dust and other contaminants, and to protect equipment from shock and vibration during transport.
• MUD Logging Cabin: Mud logging is also sometimes used in drilling water wells and other mineral exploration because drilling fluid is the circulating medium used to lift cuttings out of the well. And the mud logging cabin is a sophisticated portable laboratory that provides many convenient functions and equipment to help surface loggers more accurately evaluate formation samples and obtain the most accurate results in the shortest time.

Intelligence within containers can be achieved in various ways, including sensors, electronic controls and communication technologies. For example, a pressure sensor can be used to monitor the internal pressure of a container and adjust it as needed.
