Safehouse Habitats recently held a live technology demonstration in Aberdeen to showcase their services to companies looking at ways to maximise hot work maintenance cost efficiencies.

A live demonstration vehicle that was developed to demonstrate the technology, its practical applications and benefits, was used at the event to offer potential and existing customers an insight into the engineered solution.

Safehouse’s innovative habitats are designed to offer a fully engineered control measure to mitigate the risk of ignition associated with hot work in hazardous environments.

The pressurised enclosures work by taking air from a designated safe zone to positively pressurise the habitat to create a barrier that stops hydrocarbons entering the internal environment. The robust technology, which is used as part of process safety management systems in basins across the world, allows us to monitor the habitat and surrounding area for hydrocarbons and pressurisation, constantly maintaining safe operations.

Harry MacDonald from Axiom NDT said “I found that the product can be used in more locations than I anticipated at first. The team displayed excellent knowledge and the explanation of the modular build process, with the addition of having multiple inlets and outlets while keeping positive pressure within the habitat was great.”

Following the success of our first event, Safehouse will be looking to book in further demos this year at the EIC premises both in Aberdeen and Teesside.
