How Do You Specify the Right Load Cell for Offshore Lifting Applications?

26^th May 2026

Specifying the correct load monitoring equipment for offshore lifting is rarely straightforward. Offshore oil and gas operations involve a wide range of lifting systems – each with different mechanical arrangements, environmental conditions and operational demands.

Witnessed Offshore Load Cell Calibration

Which Certifications Are Required for Offshore Load Cells, Load Pins and Load Shackles?

22^nd May 2026

Certification is often one of the first technical requirements when specifying load cells, load pins and load shackles for offshore oil and gas applications – and rightly so.

How Do Offshore Load Cells Withstand Harsh Marine Environments?

19^th May 2026

Offshore oil and gas environments are among the most demanding operating conditions faced by industrial instrumentation and load monitoring equipment. Constant exposure to seawater, salt-laden air, vibration, dynamic loading and severe weather creates a challenging environment in which equipment reliability is absolutely critical.

Load Pins for Aerospace Application

15^th May 2026

We have manufactured 36 of these load pins for an aerospace application where they will be fitted in a clevis arrangement to simultaneously measure forces in real time.

Subsea Load Cells for Offshore and Deepwater Applications: What Really Matters

14^th May 2026

When specifying a subsea load cell for offshore or underwater applications, marine engineers face a very different set of challenges compared with conventional industrial environments. In subsea operations, failure is not merely inconvenient – it can result in costly vessel downtime, failed lifting operations, damaged infrastructure or expensive retrieval operations.

Which Load Cell Types Are Best for Offshore Oil and Gas Applications?

14^th May 2026

Offshore oil and gas operations place enormous demands on lifting and load monitoring equipment. Whether installed on offshore cranes, mooring systems, winches, riser tensioning systems or subsea handling equipment, offshore load cells must continue to operate reliably under some of the harshest conditions found anywhere in industry.
