Industry Applications

Subsea Oil & Gas Exploration

Engineered for deepwater manifolds and BOP stacks, these housings resist extreme hydrostatic pressures and marine galvanic corrosion for a 25-year design life. 

Geothermal Power Generation

Specially formulated alloy enclosures protect thermal sensors against highly corrosive, scaling geothermal brines and superheated steam environments. 

Downhole Drilling Instruments

Slim-profile, impact-resistant housings shield MWD/LWD tools from severe shock, intense vibration, and abrasive drilling muds miles underground. 

Hydrogen Storage & Transport

High-concentricity enclosures designed with specialized surface treatments to eliminate hydrogen embrittlement in custody transfer monitoring assets. 

Nuclear Core Infrastructure

Precision-machined housings built from low-cobalt alloys to provide reliable containment for radiation-hardened monitoring and cooling sensors. 

Off-Shore Wind Substations

IP69K-rated housings that isolate critical grid-synchronization sensors from continuous salt-spray, high humidity, and aggressive coastal ambient conditions.

Having Doubts? Our FAQ

Can Frigate manufacture sensor housings based on proprietary or custom drawings?

Yes. We specialize in custom contract manufacturing. Our engineering team conducts a thorough Design for Manufacturability (DFM) review of your 3D CAD models and prints to optimize machining passes, reduce cycle times, and ensure exact adherence to your tolerance specifications. 

How does Frigate guarantee the hermetic sealing of housings used in high-pressure environments?

We machine seal grooves with ultra-low surface roughness (Ra ≤ 0.4 μ m) and offer glass-to-metal fusing or advanced O-ring profiles. Additionally, we can perform 100% hydrostatic pressure testing and helium leak detection to verify seal integrity before shipping. 

What raw material certifications do you provide for energy industry compliance?

Every shipment is accompanied by complete documentation tracing back to the mill source. This includes EN 10204 Type 3.1 Material Test Reports (MTRs), NACE MR0175/ISO 15156 compliance certificates, and heat treatment logs for sour service applications. 

How do you handle volatile pricing and long lead times for exotic materials like Inconel or Titanium?

Frigate maintains strategic partnerships with verified, Tier-1 global alloy suppliers. We stock standard bar stock configurations of common energy-grade alloys, allowing us to mitigate sudden raw material price shocks and secure faster production kickoff times. 

Do you support inventory management models like blanket orders or Just-In-Time (JIT) delivery?

Absolutely. For mid-to-high volume production, Frigate offers scheduled blanket order releases. We manufacture the annual volume to capitalize on economies of scale, warehouse the buffer stock safely, and dispatch tranches based on your quarterly or monthly operational schedule.
