20ft DNV 2.7-1 Offshore Container – New

This 20ft DNV 2.7-1 offshore container – new provides safe, certified transport and storage for equipment destined for oil rigs, offshore wind farms, and other marine installations . For example, you can ship pumps, generators, compressors, or other packaged equipment safely to remote offshore locations. Therefore, this container meets the rigorous safety standards required for offshore lifting and transport.

Why Choose a DNV 2.7-1 Certified Container?

Standard ISO containers do not meet the stringent safety requirements for offshore lifting operations. In contrast, this DNV 2.7-1 certified container has passed design reviews, manufacturing surveillance, and final inspections by DNV, the world’s largest classification society . Consequently, you can lift and transport this container by crane in open seas with confidence. Moreover, units manufactured after 2018 comply with the latest DNV-ST-E271 and ISO 10855-1 standards . Thus, you gain full regulatory compliance for offshore operations.

Key Features of This DNV Offshore Container

The DNV 2.7-1 certification and heavy-duty construction make this offshore container stand out. For instance, the container features four lifting pad eyes (lifting lugs) on the roof that allow safe crane lifting with DNV-certified slings . Similarly, weathertight construction meets ISO 1496-1 testing standards, with 10% of production undergoing watertight testing and the remaining units receiving light tests . Furthermore, corner castings allow secure stacking using twist-lock mechanisms . Finally, the Corten steel construction (weathering steel) resists corrosion from salt spray and harsh marine environments .

DNV 2.7-1 Certification – What It Means

DNV 2.7-1 represents the global standard for offshore containers. For example, DNV first published this standard in 1989, and the latest edition (DNV-ST-E271, amended 2024) provides technical requirements for approval and certification of offshore containers . Likewise, certification includes design assessment, manufacturing surveillance, testing verification, and final inspection by DNV surveyors . If you operate in the oil and gas or offshore wind industries, DNV 2.7-1 certification is mandatory for lifting operations and regulatory compliance.

New Condition – Pristine, Factory-Fresh

New offshore containers come directly from DNV-approved manufacturers. For example, manufacturers like Singamas Group produce DNV 2.7-1 certified containers with lifting eyes and full certification documentation . Likewise, each new container includes DNV-approved lifting slings, CSC plate, and DNV data plate . If you need a container for mission-critical offshore operations, new condition delivers the longest service life and full manufacturer warranties.

20ft Dimensions and Specifications

This container’s dimensions optimize offshore lift capacity and storage efficiency. For example, the external dimensions measure 20ft x 8ft x 8ft 6in (approximately 6,058mm x 2,438mm x 2,591mm) . Likewise, the high cube option (9ft 6in) provides additional internal height for taller equipment . Furthermore, the standard payload capacity reaches approximately 19,900 kg (43,872 lbs), depending on configuration . If you need open-top access for crane-loadable goods, half-height and open-top DNV configurations are also available .

Lifting and Stacking Capabilities

This container handles demanding offshore lifting and stacking requirements. For example, DNV-certified lifting slings (included) allow safe crane transfer from supply vessels to offshore platforms . Likewise, units can stack with their slings still attached, maximizing storage efficiency on rig decks . Furthermore, forklift pockets provide alternative handling options when cranes are unavailable . If you need to maximize deck space, this container’s stackability proves essential for offshore operations.

What’s Included

First, every unit includes the 20ft DNV 2.7-1 certified Corten steel container (new, factory-fresh). Second, DNV-certified lifting slings come supplied with the unit. Third, the CSC safety plate and DNV data plate are affixed. Fourth, four lifting pad eyes (top corner lugs) and corner castings for twist-lock stacking complete the package. Finally, forklift pockets (4) allow repositioning onshore.

For instance, you can choose open-top or half-height configurations for specific cargo needs . Likewise, you can add internal lashing points for securing sensitive equipment. Furthermore, we offer 10ft, 16ft, and 24ft DNV container sizes for non-standard requirements . Contact our team for custom configurations and bulk orders.
