Oil & Gas Walkways
Transit Systems for Oil & Gas
Extreme-condition resistant walkways: custom and modular design
These are complex structures designed and built to be permanently installed on drilling towers and generally in all on and off-shore environments in oil & gas applications. They are used to access various levels of platforms and to facilitate the transfer of personnel and equipment. They are made of materials and finishes that are resistant to extreme marine conditions such as high waves, strong currents and extreme temperatures: high-thickness anodized aluminum to combine strength and lightness or specially painted steel in the most structural parts.
Walkways for the oil & gas sector can be designed in different ways, depending on the specific needs of the application, but always to minimize or eliminate any maintenance. They can have a bridge or tower configuration, depending on the distance to be covered and the height of the platform. They can also be designed for use in combination with other equipment, such as cranes or forklifts, to allow the transfer of large equipment and materials.
In addition to the essential safety and quality requirements, Lotus Alutech offers a complete pre and post-sales consulting service and a custom and modular design to allow the assembly of stairs, walkways and walkways in the shortest possible time.

How we Work
1. Preliminary project analysis
Our technicians work closely with the sales department, supporting the customer in the preliminary analysis of the project to promptly provide an initial quotation.
2. On-site inspection
It is essential for the project definition: in-depth knowledge of the machinery on which the structures will be installed and analysis of the operational context allow us to send the final quotation.
3. 3D Simulation and Design
Thanks to the 3D CAD design system, our technical office will be able to provide highly customized solutions from a structural, safety and aesthetic point of view.
4. Manufacturing
Production is carried out entirely at our facility by qualified and experienced operators, with constant monitoring of the process, materials, finishes, and quality of the work.
5. Preassembly in Lotus and FAT
To ensure a service without unpleasant surprises, we perform a pre-assembly of all components to check for defects. A factory acceptance test is also performed alongside.
6. Assembly at customer's site
The assembly phase is greatly facilitated by the functional block palletization for assembly during packaging and the numbering of references for each component to be assembled.
Our Plus
Security Requirements
Starting from the project, Lotus Alutech builds its own structures by respecting all safety requirements and reference regulations according to the highest standards.
Customer Service
The technical office and the sales department offer pre and post-sales assistance. The design of our products is particularly well-cared for to simplify assembly, reducing time and costs.
Customisation
We are able to provide fully customized technical and executive solutions starting from the specific needs expressed by the customer using the best aluminum alloys, stainless steel and, when required, carbon steel.
