A Standard Modular Accommodation Cabin built into a 20ft Offshore Container is often used in offshore environments such as oil rigs or marine construction projects. These units are designed to meet strict safety standards, including DNV 2.7-1/EN 12079 certification, which is necessary for offshore containers.
Here’s an overview of what such a cabin would typically include when configured as a Dining Room:
Specifications:
- Dimensions:
- Length: 20 feet (6.06 meters)
- Width: 8 feet (2.44 meters)
- Height: 8.6 feet (2.6 meters)
- Materials:
- Exterior: Steel or reinforced aluminum for strength and durability.
- Interior: Insulated walls with fire-retardant materials.
- Electrical Systems:
- Fully wired to meet offshore electrical standards.
- Lighting: Explosion-proof or marine-rated lighting.
- Power: May include outlets for appliances, heaters, or air conditioning.
Design Features:
- Dining Area:
- Seating for typically 6 to 10 people, depending on the layout.
- Durable, easy-to-clean surfaces (e.g., stainless steel or laminate tables and benches).
- Galley/Kitchen Area (if applicable):
- Small kitchenette or pantry for food preparation.
- Storage cabinets, sinks, and possibly a microwave or refrigerator, depending on the design.
- Comfort and Safety:
- HVAC System: Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning for comfort in extreme conditions.
- Fire Suppression Systems: Smoke detectors, sprinklers, and other fire prevention features.
- Non-slip Flooring: Designed for safety in a marine environment.
- Windows: May include small, impact-resistant windows for natural light.
- Doors: Watertight or weatherproof doors to maintain safety in extreme offshore conditions.
Modularity and Customization:
These cabins are modular, meaning they can be stacked or placed alongside other containers to form larger living or working environments. The dining room can be custom-fitted with additional features depending on the project’s needs, such as specialized equipment, more seating, or improved insulation for extreme climates.
Use Case:
- Offshore Oil Rigs: A central dining space for crew members.
- Marine Construction: Temporary accommodation for workers needing communal dining space.
- Remote Sites: Where space is limited but necessary to provide a functional dining area.
If this is for a specific project, you can also add custom design features like advanced HVAC systems, soundproofing, or additional safety features.
