Field notes · Loyang Offshore Supply Base
More about Loyang Offshore Supply Base that matters for portable equipment
Loyang Offshore Supply Base: climate and equipment wear
Equatorial heat, humidity and sudden heavy showers affect an open wharf and yard, so portable devices used outdoors need good ingress protection and handling discipline.
Loyang Offshore Supply Base: who works there
The base is described as a self-contained ecosystem, with the operator offering logistics management for offshore oil and gas customers from one location.
Loyang Offshore Supply Base: rules and approvals
Security is manned around the clock with strict access requirements and video surveillance, so visitors and contractors should expect pre-registration and screening at the gate.
Loyang Offshore Supply Base: background
The Loyang base was redeveloped in 2008 with an investment of about 325 million dollars, turning it into a modern offshore supply facility run by Toll Offshore Petroleum Services.
The term · Ex-proof
What “Ex-proof” means for a smartphone
“Ex-proof” is shorthand for equipment carrying an explosion-protection marking (the Ex mark) that matches the area it enters. The marking states the protection concept, gas or dust group and temperature class, and it must be backed by a certificate issued by a recognised body, so a phone described as Ex-proof should come with a certificate number you can check.
The IS-04Z1 is designed to carry the marking II 2 G Ex ib IIC T4. That is a target: certification is in progress, no certificate has been issued, and SAMS will publish the certificate numbers when they exist.
In Loyang Offshore Supply Base. Which tenants hold classified areas is not verified, so a marking check at Loyang starts with the tenant. Where chemical and fuel storage is classified, read the zone, gas group and temperature class from that tenant's classification. The IS-04Z1 target marking is II 2 G Ex ib IIC T4.
The route · distribution
Distributing the IS-04Z1 in Loyang Offshore
Distribution of the IS-04Z1 is by authorised partners only, and SAMS has not yet granted a territory for Loyang Offshore Supply Base. Each application is reviewed on its merits.

- Ex-competent staff
- People who understand zone classification, markings and the conditions of a certificate.
And equally important

Questions · Loyang Offshore
Frequently asked questions
Can we buy an Ex-proof mobile phone in Loyang Offshore today?
Not yet. The IS-04Z1 is pre-launch and its certification is still in progress ahead of a Q4 2026 launch. No unit goes into a classified area before the certificate covering it exists. The datasheet, the certification schedule and safe-area evaluation units are available now.
What does an Ex-proof mobile phone in Loyang Offshore cost?
There is no list price yet. SAMS gives indicative pre-launch pricing in writing, against a stated quantity and site, and does not commit to a lead time before certification completes.
What Ex marking will the IS-04Z1 carry?
The marking target is II 2 G Ex ib IIC T4. It becomes a marking only when the certificate is issued; until then it is a design target.
Which areas at Loyang Offshore Supply Base would use it?
Likely candidates are offshore equipment workshops, hazardous materials storage, wharf and vessel quay handling, hot works and afloat repair areas. Which areas are classified, and to what zone, is set by the site operator's own area classification drawings.
How do I become a SAMS distributor for Loyang Offshore Supply Base?
Apply through the distributor page with your company details and the territory you cover. SAMS reviews applications company by company and has not yet granted a territory for Loyang Offshore Supply Base.
What access controls should I expect at Loyang?
The operator describes round-the-clock manned security, strict access requirements and video surveillance. Expect to be registered in advance and screened at the gate, with any electronic equipment declared. Confirm exact steps with the host company before travelling.
Why does the wharf matter for equipment planning?
With a wharf able to serve more than 11 vessels at once, vessel mobilisation and demobilisation can overlap, and cranes, containers and fuel transfers share space. Portable devices should be chosen for rough handling, sea air and fast-changing zone boundaries.
Do tenants set their own device rules?
Yes. Tenants include oil and gas services companies, each with its own safety rules. A device accepted by one tenant is not automatically accepted by another. Ask the tenant's HSE team for its requirements, and be ready to supply the datasheet and certification status.
