Shipping Container Conspiracy... WTF... this is disheartening... No wonder we have been having trouble sourcing containers for our customers!! We specialize in manufacturing and building out shipping containers for anything that our customers might need in their lifting operations on the high seas. Offices, Controll Rooms, Equipment Rooms, Data Centers, etc. Shipping containers fall under the offshore DNV lifting standard 2.7-1. Like any equipment skid, the container must adhere to the strict lifting requirements as set out by the DNV. DNV 2.7-1, this is the primary global standard for offshore freight containers, cargo baskets, and general CCUs (Cargo Carrying Units) handled in open seas. I wonder if the DNV surveyors that witness our builds were aware of this. They never said anything to us! What a shame...
