Diesel Generator Hire for Marine & Off-Shore

Midas serves many east coast ports, vessels and various marine based contractors with temporary, emergency and backup power solutions, for both on and off-shore applications.

Offshore diesel generator hire is a very rapidly expanding part of our business and one we’re keen to expand further, capitalising not only on our geographical position close to the east coast ports but also our skill set and ability to deploy at very short notice.

As with other industry sectors that we work in, the quality and presentation of reliable and safe generators, cable and distribution equipment is paramount in this demanding and challenging work environment, where quite literally time is money.

We react to short lead times or emergencies

The Offshore marine generators hire division of Midas is a rapidly expanding part of the company’s portfolio.

We can offer generators from 15kVA to 1200kVA. Our specialist team can offer turnkey solutions on planned maintenance activities or alternatively react under short lead times to cope with unforeseen emergency situations.

Midas has experience with a broad range of vessels including work boats, dive support vessels, jack up barges as well as shore based engineering and maintenance activities.

Reliable Power Solutions for Marine and Offshore Environments

Operating in marine and offshore environments demands robust, dependable power solutions that can withstand some of the harshest conditions. From offshore platforms to docked vessels, ensuring consistent performance and reliability is essential for maintaining operations and avoiding costly downtime.

One of the key advantages of modern offshore generator systems is the ability to monitor performance remotely. All offshore machines are equipped with a DSE Gateway, providing full remote access to the generator. This allows for continuous monitoring of usage and performance, as well as rapid diagnostics in the unlikely event of a fault. By identifying and addressing issues early, remote monitoring helps minimise disruption and maintain operational efficiency.

Flexibility is another important factor in offshore power provision. Whether power is required for a short-term need, such as supplying shore power while a vessel is berthed, or for long-term deployment lasting several years, solutions can be tailored to suit the duration and specific requirements of the project. No hire is considered too short or too complex, ensuring that both temporary and extended offshore operations are fully supported.

Given the challenging marine climate, equipment must be specifically designed to resist moisture, salt, and airborne contaminants. Generators used in offshore applications are built with enhanced protection, including ‘Grey Varnish’ coatings applied to critical components such as the exciter stator and main power stator. This added layer of protection helps safeguard the equipment against environmental damage, ensuring long-term reliability and performance in demanding conditions.

By combining advanced monitoring technology, flexible hire options, and durable, climate-resistant equipment, marine and offshore power solutions provide a dependable foundation for operations in even the most challenging environments.
