It operates the Talara, Conchan and Iquitos refineries and the Oleoducto Norperuano pipeline. This page sets out how an explosion proof smartphone supply route to Petroperu will work for the IS-04Z1, and what is and is not available before launch.

WherePetroperu
Short answer. An explosion proof smartphone for Petroperu cannot be bought yet: the SAMS IS-04Z1 is pre-launch (certification in progress, no certificate issued), and the datasheet, certification schedule and safe-area evaluation units are available now.
Where things stand: the IS-04Z1 has not launched, and none of its four certification routes has produced a certificate yet. An operator's own vendor approval is a separate step. Certification status. Place facts reviewed October 2026.

Supplier approval · Petroperu
Becoming an approved supplier to Petroperu
Petroperu maintains a Qualified Supplier Registration System (Registro de Proveedor Calificado) in which supplier information is validated by Achilles Peru; requirements are published on its website.

The term · explosion proof
What “explosion proof” means for a smartphone
“Explosion proof” is the phrase most buyers use for equipment that may be taken into a classified hazardous area. Strictly, it covers several protection concepts: a flameproof enclosure (Ex d) contains an internal explosion, while intrinsic safety (Ex i) limits electrical energy so that an ignition cannot start. Phones are normally intrinsically safe, because a flameproof handset would be too heavy to carry all shift.
The IS-04Z1 uses intrinsic safety, with a marking target of Ex ib IIC T4, and is designed for Zone 1 and Zone 21. It is pre-launch, certification is in progress and no certificate has been issued.
In Petroperu. At the refinery and on pipeline pumping stations, explosion-proof is a shorthand that covers different protection concepts. Flameproof Ex d suits motors and fixed lighting, and intrinsic safety suits handhelds and instruments. A phone belongs in the second group. The IS-04Z1 target marking is II 2 G Ex ib IIC T4.

Questions · Petroperu
Frequently asked questions
Can Petroperu buy the IS-04Z1 today?
Not today. Until the certificates are issued the IS-04Z1 stays out of classified areas, and until launch there is nothing to purchase. You can ask for the datasheet and the certification schedule, or book a safe-area evaluation unit.
What does an explosion proof smartphone for Petroperu 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.
Is the IS-04Z1 explosion proof or intrinsically safe?
It is intrinsically safe (marking target Ex ib IIC T4), which is the usual way to make a phone for hazardous areas. It is not a flameproof (Ex d) design, and certification is still in progress.
How does Petroperu approve suppliers?
Petroperu maintains a Qualified Supplier Registration System (Registro de Proveedor Calificado) in which supplier information is validated by Achilles Peru; requirements are published on its website.
How will SAMS supply Petroperu?
Through authorised distributors once certificates exist. Until then SAMS can send the datasheet and certification schedule and arrange safe-area evaluation units.
How do conditions differ between Talara and the Amazon pipeline areas?
Talara is a hot, dry coastal location with sea air, while the northern jungle areas are humid, rainy and remote, with long access times. Handheld devices should have good ingress protection, corrosion resistance and a wide temperature range; confirm local limits with the operator.
How do suppliers get approved by a Peruvian state company?
State enterprises normally buy through formal procurement processes with registration and technical evaluation. There is no public approved list for hazardous-area devices, so confirm current registration and certification requirements directly with Petroperu's procurement and HSE departments.
How does a supplier register with Petroperu?
The sheet states that Petroperu maintains a Qualified Supplier Registration System, in which supplier information is validated by Achilles Peru, and that requirements are published on its website. Check the current requirements with Petroperu's procurement team. The IS-04Z1 is pre-launch and has no certificate.
