A offshore laboratory contain has potential sources of release such as hydrocarbon liquid and gas samples, and vapors from heated hydrocarbon liquids. Some equipment is not designed for hazardous area which it could present an ignition source. The laboratory container is designed by using external extracting system for the toxic fumes (Ex certified) from the fume cupboard. Other electrical equipment inside the lab container is also certified by Ex approvals, including split-type air conditioner, lighting, sockets, distribution boards, etc. Negative pressure is maintained by using exhaust blower and speically designed air-lock system.
