Comprehensive Lightning Protection for Oil and Gas Facilities

In the oil and gas industry, ensuring safety and continuous operations is paramount. Our lightning protection for oil and gas facilities prevents disruptions caused by lightning strikes, safeguarding your infrastructure from potential hazards.

Lightning Protection for Oil and Gas Safety and Operational Continuity

Our advanced Lightning protection systems and lightning avoidance systems are engineered specifically to solve challenges faced by operators in oil & gas.

Trusted by industry leaders like Chevron and ExxonMobil

Continuous operations in extreme conditions

Innovating Since 1971

Risk Assessment

Identify and Quantify Vulnerabilities
LEC detailed site surveys include an in-depth review of your infrastructure’s physical properties—from structural materials and dimensions to environmental conditions and soil composition. We identify vulnerable equipment and assess the quantitative and qualitative costs of potential lightning-induced interruptions.

Lightning Protection Strategy

Customized Strategies for Maximum Protection
Comprehensive assessments to map your facility’s risk zones followed by a detailed visual representation highlighting areas of high strike probability, zones requiring protection, and potential paths for lightning-induced currents.

A Two Pronged Approach

Oil & Gas facilities, including those with tank farms and vapor streams are particularly vulnerable to lightning strikes. Often they operate in extreme environments and in remote locations. Our oil & gas lightning defense strategy is built on the two complementary approaches of protection and avoidance. These application-engineered products are integrated into a comprehensive solution designed specifically for the complex needs of oil and gas operations.

Retractable Grounding Assembly® (RGA) for Storage Tanks

This innovative solution establishes a low-impedance bond between the roof and the shell of your storage tank, effectively diverting dangerous currents away from critical systems. LEC has over 16,000 RGA's in service worldwide.

RGA Technology

Dissipation Array System® (DAS®)

Our patented lightning avoidance technology (Dissipation Array System) actively reduces the likelihood of a strike by altering local electrical fields.
