Handling systems meeting Ex requirements
When offshore operations require equipment for hazardous areas, Evotec can engineer handling systems to meet the relevant Ex requirements.
From electric to hydraulic solutions, equipment and system architecture can be configured around the vessel, application and hazardous-area requirements – combining Evotec’s handling expertise with the safety, control and reliability required for demanding offshore operations.

Proven Ex capability
Evotec’s proven electric Ex solution uses a pressurised enclosure that enables compact PM motors and frequency converters to be incorporated into the system while meeting hazardous-area requirements

Built around the operation
Ex requirements do not start with a standard product. Evotec engineers the complete solution around the application, hazardous-area classification and operational requirements.
Depending on the project, this can include:
- Electric or hydraulic drive solutions
- Winches and handling equipment
- Automation and control
- Active Heave Compensation
- Anti-Snatch functionality
- Monitoring and safety systems
- System integration and commissioning
Proven through repeat orders
Evotec has developed and secured repeat orders for Ex-certified Launch and Recovery Systems for offshore drilling vessels.
