Frequently Asked Questions on Onshore & Offshore Oil & Gas Field Services in UAE
These services typically cover all activities related to extraction, production and maintenance—such as drilling, installation of equipment, electrical & mechanical servicing, corrosion protection, and periodic inspections—for facilities both on land (onshore) and at sea (offshore).
Offshore generator rewinding refers to repairing or replacing the winding coils in generators located on offshore platforms or vessels. It becomes necessary when insulation fails, windings burn out, or efficiency drops, often due to harsh marine environments.
HV motor repair in oil & gas typically requires adherence to safety standards (e.g. for explosion-proof motors), use of specialized insulation classes, precise balancing, sealing against corrosive atmospheres, and often on-site capabilities due to remote or offshore locations.
Offshore oil field services include maintenance of drilling rigs, motor overhauling, rewinding, generator servicing, dynamic balancing, mechanical repairs, bearing & shaft work, and emergency response services to ensure uptime at sea.
Yes—many companies (including Daniel Group) offer mobile or onboard services so that offshore generator rewinding can often be performed with minimal shutdowns, ensuring continuous power and operational integrity wherever possible.
Common signs include unusual vibrations, excessive heat, frequent tripping, reduced output, insulation breakdown, abnormal noise, or moisture ingress. In hazardous (Ex) zones or offshore, even small anomalies can escalate if not addressed quickly.
Services must comply with relevant standards (e.g., ATEX, IECEx for explosion-proof motors, API for equipment) and use certified materials and technicians. This ensures safety, operational legality, and longevity, especially in harsh marine or remote oil & gas setups.
Lead times vary with motor size, location (onshore vs offshore), and scope of damage. Simple rewinds or repairs might take a few days; more extensive repairs, overhauls, or parts supply for offshore work may take weeks. Companies with local workshops/mobile teams can reduce these times.
