Supporting Gas Distribution, Pipeline Construction, Tank Services, and Midstream Projects

SafeRack provides safety and access solutions for pipeline loading and industrial operations, including gas distribution, pipeline construction and integrity, liquid pipelines, tank services, compressor stations, and midstream projects. Our systems help ensure safe, efficient work environments in these critical sectors.

With over 2 million miles of fuel pipelines in the United States—and many more transporting water, sewage, and other essential resources—facility layouts often create challenging and hazardous work areas. SafeRack’s crossovers, pipeline loading platforms, and fall protection systems provide secure access, helping teams navigate these environments safely and efficiently.

  • Secure Access Over Pipelines and Equipment – Modular crossovers and platforms improve worker mobility while providing safe access solutions for pipeline workers.
  • Enhanced Safety and Compliance – OSHA-compliant solutions reduce risk in hazardous areas, supporting pipeline worker fall prevention solutions and regulatory requirements.
  • Durable and Reconfigurable Systems – Built to withstand harsh environments and evolving site needs while maintaining safety in pipeline construction and maintenance operations.
  • Increased Efficiency in Pipeline Operations – Streamlines maintenance, inspections, and daily workflows while ensuring reliable access to critical infrastructure.

FAQ

How do SafeRack’s gangways improve safety during energy product loading and unloading?

SafeRack’s self-adjusting gangways provide safe, OSHA-compliant access to tank trucks, railcars, and barges transporting crude oil, natural gas liquids, and refined fuels. Equipped with four-rail safety cages and available in powered options, our gangways minimize fall risks and ensure safe, efficient loading and unloading in high-volume energy operations.

Can SafeRack’s loading arms handle corrosive and flammable materials?

Yes. SafeRack’s carbon steel loading arms are built to safely transfer a wide range of energy products, including crude oil, LNG, and petrochemicals. With PTFE-sealed swivel joints for chemical resistance and vapor recovery systems for EPA compliance, these arms are designed to withstand harsh environments while maintaining safety and efficiency.

How does SafeRack help prevent spills and environmental hazards at energy facilities?

SafeRack provides a range of spill containment solutions, including pans, berms, and wheel chocks, to capture leaks during the transfer of oil, gas, and petrochemicals. These systems help energy facilities stay compliant with EPA regulations while protecting workers and the environment from hazardous spills.

Why is grounding important in energy loading operations, and how does SafeRack help?

Grounding is critical in energy operations to prevent static discharge, which can ignite flammable vapors during the transfer of crude oil, LNG, and refined fuels. SafeRack’s grounding and bonding systems ensure a secure ground connection before product flow begins, reducing fire and explosion risks and maintaining compliance with OSHA and NFPA standards.

Can SafeRack customize safety platforms and access systems for energy facilities?

Absolutely. SafeRack offers customizable access solutions, including gangways, platforms, stairs, and fall protection systems, specifically designed for the complex needs of energy facilities. Our modular systems are built to withstand harsh environments while improving worker safety and operational efficiency.
