Application Scenario

Oil & Gas Industry

Overview

Oil and gas storage tanks, pipelines, and related steel structures often require pipe mounting, scaffolding installation, cable routing, temporary equipment attachment, and maintenance operations throughout their service life. As these facilities operate in potentially hazardous environments, installation methods must prioritize safety and minimize modifications to the tank structure. In addition, maintenance activities demand solutions that allow rapid deployment, flexible positioning, and repeated use.

Challenges & Pain Points

Hot work such as drilling and welding is prohibited or strictly restricted on oil and gas storage facilities.
Traditional drilling or welding installations often require tanks to be emptied or taken out of service, resulting in significant downtime, labor, and cost.
Conventional installation methods may damage protective coatings and compromise the structural integrity of storage tanks.
Temporary pipelines, scaffolding, and cable support systems frequently require repositioning, removal, and reinstallation.
Maintenance operations require mounting solutions that combine high load capacity, safety, and flexibility.
Installation and maintenance activities must be completed efficiently to minimize disruption to ongoing operations.

Recommended Mounting Solution

A high-strength magnetic mounting system provides a safe and efficient alternative to drilling and welding by securely attaching directly to storage tanks, pipelines, and steel structures without requiring any hot work. The system offers strong holding force, fast installation, reusability, and damage-free mounting, helping reduce safety risks, downtime, and installation costs.

Magnetic mounting components can be securely attached not only to flat steel surfaces but also to curved surfaces such as oil and gas storage tanks, making them suitable for complex structural applications. Typical uses include cooling water pipe mounting on storage tanks, maintenance scaffolding installation, cable routing support, bracket and accessory mounting, and temporary equipment fixation.

In addition, magnetic components can serve as removable attachment points for scaffolding, ladder supports, and steel structure inspection tasks, providing a safe, flexible, and non-invasive mounting solution for the oil and gas industry.
