Our offshore containers and baskets could be made to undergo the under listed tests as contained in theGuidelines for the Approval of Offshore Containers released by the International MaritimeOrganization in May, 1998.

1. 4-Point Lifting Test:In this case, the internal load a uniformly distributed load such that the total mass of thecontainer and test load is equal to 2.5R, where R is the maximum allowable combined mass of thecontainer and its cargo. Here the container is lifted with slings attached to each of its four padeyes positioned at an angle to the vertical which must be equal to the design angle.

2. 2-Point Lifting Test:Here, the internal load is such that the total mass of the container and the test load is equal to1.5R. The container (Fitted with four pad eyes) with the load is lifted with slings fitted to two ofthe four pad eyes. The selected two pad eyes must be diagonal to each other.

3. Vertical Impact Test:The internal load here is such that the total mass of the container and the test load is equal to R.The container is suspended at an inclined angle with the lowest corner being at least 50mm abovea rigid floor. The container is quickly released to hit the rigid floor. On the initial impact, itshould have a speed of at least 1 m/s.

2.9 Insulation, Refractory Linings & Claddings:Our services here cover:1. Pipe Insulation Offers excellent protection for process pipes against corrosion under insulation

while lowering surface temperature and provides a barrier to heat transfer. The translucent natureof the product used permits visual and ultrasound inspection through the coating without its

removal.2. Tank Insulation Insulates and protects against corrosion while ensuring energy savings and

effective running of tank processes. This is equally ideal for already hot tanks and will reduce thedowntime due to hot processes.

3. Duct Insulation This saves energy, prevents condensation, rust and the trapping of mold andmoisture. It improves comfortable indoor environment where you have ducts.

4. Industrial Equipment Insulation Reduces wear and tear of equipment parts and help conserveenergy.

5. Metal Building Insulation Ideal for the insulation of your portakabins, caravans and metal storagefacilities. It increases the energy efficiency of your cooling or heating systems by ensuring excellentblock of heat transfer. This serves industrial projects in remote and very difficult/ hash locations.

With a strong background in industrial and marine insulation, JOULES is gaining good experience in

cladding technology and is constantly sourcing the best quality products from both local andinternational market place.

2.10 Corrosion Control Services:Our partnership with ERGIL Group (ERGIL Corrosion Control Systems) permits JOULES enough roomto offer her clients more diverse and very specific services in this area. Our Cathodic ProtectionTechnique deploys the use of Galvanic or Sacrificial Anodes made in various shapes using alloys ofMagnesium, Zinc and Aluminum. The electrochemical potential of these alloys in a CPS (CathodicProtection System) is more than that of Iron. However for larger structures, Galvanic Anodes cannoteconomically deliver enough current to provide complete protection thus a cathodic protection rectifier(An Impressed Current Cathodic Protection) is used to solve this problem.
