Operators of offshore oil and gas platforms require marking systems, namely aids to navigation, helideck and obstruction lighting packages that are certified for installation in gas hazardous areas, and are capable of functioning reliably with minimum energy demands and maintenance in harsh environments.
Orga Offshore provides customised solutions for the offshore oil and gas industry, specialising in the design and manufacture of gas hazardous area certified navigational aid systems that are reliable in the harshest environments.
As a responsible member of the offshore community Orga Offshore works with regulatory bodies, designing and making prototypes for evaluation testing and trials in the development of new standards and specifications.
With over 40 years of experience, privately-owned Dutch company Orga is a world leader in the development and manufacture of state-of-the-art navigational aids, obstruction lighting, solar and backup power supply systems and explosion-proof solutions for customers in the offshore, petrochemical and aviation industries. Orga products are sold worldwide and meet both local and international code requirements.
Orga’s sustained success is attributable to a constant focus on innovation, a powerful set of core competences, a profound understanding of the offshore and aviation environments, meeting customer needs and a broad pioneering product portfolio of exceptional quality. A new generation of stainless-steel explosion proof LED helideck perimeter light to meet regulatory requirements for ICAO, CAP437 and IMO. Explosion-proof, ATEX certified LED helideck wave-off / status light meeting CAP437 requirements. Long-life LEDs and lightweight design for easy installation and long maintenance intervals. The explosion-proof photocell provides automatic control of the marine lights, aeronautical obstruction lights, helideck lights at dawn and dusk, when used in conjunction with the Navaids Central Control Panel (NCCP). Explosion-proof LED illuminated touchdown / positioning marking circle and Heliport identification marking (H) panels meeting CAP437 requirements. A stainless-steel Zone 1 reliable Frequency Agile Racon (side lobe suppression function on both X and S band) designed in accordance with IALA and IMO specifications. The explosion-proof foghorn designed to provide 2NM omnidirectional sounds and is designed in line with IALA regulatory requirements and for use in harsh offshore environments. The explosion-proof main and secondary LED marine light provides 15 and 10 nautical mile white omnidirectional coverage, for offshore structures. The fog detector (visibility meter) provides automatic activation of the foghorns at pre-set meteorological conditions and can be used in conjunction with the Navaids Central Control Panel (NCCP). The digital navaids central control panel smartly designed with interactive touch screen to monitor and control all navigational aids. Offshore navigation system
Effective, reliable navigation systems are essential for safety to ensure offshore structures are visible to vessels in all weather conditions.
With more than 40 years’ experience in the design and manufacturer of offshore and aviation installation requirements we supply complete solutions for our customers. We work with regulatory bodies around the world and provide systems to comply with national regulations, as well as those of the International Association of Lighthouse Authorities (IALA), the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) and local Civil Aviation Authorities (CAA).
Our offshore navigation systems are not just about lights and foghorns – we provide a complete solutions, and work with our customers to develop systems adapt to their requirements. We understand the objectives of the project stakeholders and balance these with the need to meet regulatory requirements and ensure safe operation. CAP437 compliant helideck light system
The CAA (UK) recommendations (CAP437 – Standards for Offshore Helicopter Landing Areas) are required to be followed for the safe marking of offshore helidecks in the UK and other countries following theserecommendations.
Orga has been working closely with the CAA (UK) and offshore helideck operators over many years to ensure that our helideck lighting product range meets the demanding requirements of the regulators, clients and environmental conditions. Effective, reliable helideck lighting systems are essential for safety to ensure that offshore structures are visible to pilots in all weather conditions.
We are able to meet all the helideck lighting needs of our clients providing reliable, state-of-the-art, low maintenance and cost-effective products. Offshore remote power supply system
In order to provide risk free power to a remote location, the design of renewable power supply systems can take several forms; photovoltaic, wind and many more. Orga will review the requirements of clients and assist in the design and engineering of a reliable and cost effective system. The choice of technology selection for each project will depend on factors such as geographic location, power requirements, available size and space.
The PV (photovoltaic) system is a reliable system that guarantees the power supply in periods when there is no main AC power available.
The PV system consists of: PV module, battery unit, battery charger/ rectifier unit and a distribution system. Whenever possible we design modular systems to be cost effective, easy to handle and multiple module scan operated in parallel to meet project requirements. Certification: KEMA in accordance with the ATEX 94/9/CE directive for Zone 1. Upcoming exhibitions
