Offshore Generator Hire

Offshore teams commonly use generators for motor and load testing, yard testing prior to mobilisation, winch and spooling operations, quayside works, fabrication support and temporary platform or vessel power.

In addition, operators rely on temporary generation within oil and gas installations, petrochemical environments and during planned or emergency outages where dependable power remains critical.

They are also used in oil and gas installations, petrochemical environments and for planned or emergency outages where reliable temporary power is critical.

Generator selection depends on total load demand, starting characteristics, power factor and operational constraints.

You can use our Power Calculator for an initial estimate. For offshore projects, our team will review load schedules, testing requirements and environmental considerations to ensure the generator and load bank package is correctly specified.

Yes. We regularly support pre-mobilisation yard testing, including HPUs, ROV systems and associated equipment.

Our generators and load banks enable teams to validate performance before offshore deployment, reducing operational risk.

We work closely with clients to align delivery with vessel schedules and project timelines.

Whether planned mobilisation or urgent support is required, our team coordinates logistics to meet operational demands.

Yes. All offshore generator hires include 24/7 technical support.

Our team remains available throughout the hire period to provide troubleshooting assistance and operational guidance whenever required.

Our offshore generators typically operate on diesel, offering efficient and reliable performance.

We can also advise on fuel management strategies and run-time requirements to ensure uninterrupted operation throughout offshore works.

kW (kilowatts) measures the usable power consumed by equipment.

kVA (kilovolt-amperes) measures the total power supplied by the generator. The relationship between the two depends on power factor and must be considered when specifying generator capacity.

Power factor indicates how efficiently electrical power is converted into usable output.

A lower power factor requires greater generator capacity (kVA) to deliver the required real power (kW). Correct specification ensures stable and efficient offshore operation.

Genny Hire provides dependable generator and load bank solutions tailored to offshore requirements.

We combine well-maintained equipment, accurate technical specification, mobilisation support and 24/7 assistance to ensure safe, reliable and properly managed temporary power throughout your project.
