Electric heating solutions for demanding maritime and offshore environments

Salt, moisture, vibration, wind, cold, and limited service access place high demands on electric heating solutions in maritime and offshore installations. Here, heating elements, heating cables, sensors, and controls must operate reliably in environments where downtime can be both costly and difficult to manage.

Electric heating is used, among other things, for freeze protection, temperature maintenance, and process heating on pipes, tanks, valves, pumps, instrumentation, technical modules, skids, engine rooms, and outdoor installations.

At Newtronic, we size solutions based on temperature requirements, medium, material, enclosure, installation conditions, safety, and documentation. This applies to maritime installations, offshore facilities, energy projects, and technical systems with requirements for robustness and operational reliability.

Electric heating solutions can contribute to more energy-efficient operation and reduced emissions, especially where electrification replaces or supplements fossil heat sources. In maritime and offshore environments, it is also important that the solution is easy to service, properly protected, and documented for the installation.

We deliver heating solutions where materials, controls, installation, and safety are considered together from the outset.

Typical focus areas

  • Heat tracing for pipes, valves, and technical installations
  • Freeze protection and temperature maintenance in harsh environments
  • Heating elements for tanks, liquids, air, and process equipment
  • Material selection, ATEX, controls, and documentation

Ofte stillede spørgsmål

Can electric heating solutions be used in ATEX areas?

Yes, electric heating solutions can be used in ATEX areas, provided that the components, temperature limiting, installation, control, and documentation match the specific zone classification.

In offshore and process environments, the entire installation must be assessed as a whole. This includes, among other things, maximum surface temperature, sensor placement, cable routing, enclosure, and documentation.

Yes, heat tracing is often used offshore for freeze protection and temperature maintenance of pipes, valves, pumps, impulse lines and technical installations. It is particularly relevant for outdoor installations, process modules and plants where cold or heat loss can affect operational reliability.

At Newtronic, we select the cable type, control system, accessories and documentation based on temperature requirements, the environment and the installation.

Electrification may be relevant where heat demand has previously been covered by fossil heat sources, or where electric heating can provide more precise, demand-controlled regulation. This can contribute to more energy-efficient operation and reduced emissions.

The specific effect depends on the energy source, operating hours, temperature requirements, control strategy, and the plant’s overall energy strategy.
