Oil and gas
Workers in the oil and gas industry regularly operate in hazardous environments that are highly infused with combustible components, such as gases, mists, vapours or flammable dusts. With a certain level of concentration of these substances in the atmosphere, a source of ignition may be all that is needed to cause an explosion.
Woodward Group is certified to provide hazardous area electrical services in the oil and gas industry, which we always carry out in accordance with CompEx best practice.
Petrochemical
Petrochemicals (sometimes referred to as petchems) are the chemical products obtained from petroleum by refining, used in many common products like gasoline, cosmetics, fertilisers, fabrics and plastics. However, the toxic chemicals in the petrochemical industry can have numerous environmental, health and safety hazards, including process hazards like leaks, equipment malfunction or corrosion, and explosive atmospheres. As such, safety is paramount in the sector.
Woodward Group provides electrical services for the petrochemical sector that fully comply with ATEX safety regulations. Our team of ATEX specialists are equipped with the necessary knowledge and protection to handle any unsafe situations they encounter.
Chemical and pharmaceutical
A large number of inflammable materials are regularly used in the chemical and pharmaceutical sectors, which means the risk of creating an explosive atmosphere is very high. Organisations working in such environments have strict regulations that they must adhere to.
As a CompEx qualified service provider, Woodward Group can offer our customers in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries optimum solutions to suit their individual requirements and uphold all quality and safety standards. Our team is well equipped and has the specialist expertise and experience to face any challenge your organisation is facing head on.
