APPLICATION DETAILS:

Excessive noise from high pressure water pumps was causing problems at an offshore oil field.

SUPPLY SCOPE:

Design, manufacture, supply and installation of a series of bespoke high specification acoustic enclosures to mitigate excessive noise levels, in line with the UK’s Control of Noise at Work Regulations 2005.

PRODUCT SELECTION AND PERFORMANCE:

In order to effectively mitigate noise, a selection of bespoke 316 stainless steel acoustic enclosures were designed and installed on-site. Each enclosure included integrated acoustic louvres for ventilation of the equipment, while maintenance access was granted by folded framework and a high number of access doors. Vision panels and windows were also included in the design.

ACOUSTIC PERFORMANCE:

The high-specification acoustic containers were designed to deliver a nominal noise reduction in line with the client’s requirements.
