Energy and Utilities

Fire protection for energy and utilities industries

The energy and utilities industries deliver major benefits to the community, providing much of the power needed to industrial, commercial and domestic life. Processing of energy and the development of major services presents significant fire risks. 

Fire incidents in onshore or offshore oil & gas facilities need to be rapidly brought under control before it becomes a major disaster. Fires in the utility industry can expose workers and the community to extreme dangers and can be financially devastating in terms of destroyed equipment and lost productivity.

Wormald’s proven fire detection and suppression systems can help reduce these risks. Wormald can design, supply and install a system to detect and suppress fire before it takes hold. Our fire detection, fire suppression, fire fighting and personal protection solutions are among the most advanced in the world and protect major facilities throughout Asia Pacific.

Some of our advanced energy and utilities fire detection and suppression technology includes:

Portable Fire Equipment

A serviced and functional fire extinguisher or fire hose reel on hand during a fire can mean the difference between a minor incident and a overwhelming full scale fire. From portable fire extinguishers to suit all classes of fire and fire risk to fire proof safes, Wormald offers a huge range of top quality equipment that gives you a powerful first line of defence against fire.

SAPPHIRE™ Fire Suppression System

The SAPPHIRE™ fire suppression system is specifically designed for use in areas that house sensitive equipment that cannot be shut down. The SAPPHIRE™ agent does not conduct electricity, is non-corrosive, minimises the risk of damage to sensitive equipment, leaves no residue and requires no clean-up.

Inergen® Gaseous Systems

Inergen® Gaseous Systems are one of the most technically advanced fire suppression systems available.  Unlike older CO2 systems, Inergen® is completely safe to people, without adverse effects on anyone remaining in the protected area when released.  Its components are naturally occurring atmospheric gases, so there is also no negative impact on the environment. Inergen® is the fire suppression system of choice for areas that contain high value or mission critical assets.
