Industry: Oil & Gas / Gas Processing Infrastructur
Location: British Columbia, Canada
Scope : Hazardous area classification, electrical engineering review, CAD updates, authentication, and stamped final drawings
Software: CAD drafting workflows aligned with client’s drafting standards
Turning incomplete classification information into a practical foundation for safe equipment decisions
The client needed updated electrical area zone classifications for their facility to support safe, standards-aligned decision-making. Without clearly defined hazardous area boundaries, specifying and installing the right field equipment becomes more complex – especially when equipment selection must align with the operating environment.
The project called for more than drawing edits. It required disciplined engineering review, accurate drafting updates, and authenticated final documentation that the client could rely on for the next phase of execution.
The Objective
Deliver clear electrical area zone classifications that support safer procurement and installation
The goal was to produce accurate, authenticated hazardous area classification drawings for the facility so the client could move forward with confidence in equipment planning. By classifying the electrical area zones, Prozus provided the technical basis the client needed to acquire and install radar instruments appropriately for the site conditions.
Engineering rigor backed by practical drafting execution
The client engaged Prozus because the work demanded both technical accountability and efficient delivery. Our team brought together electrical engineering review, drafting updates, and project coordination in one streamlined workflow – helping the client move from uncertainty to actionable documentation without unnecessary delay.
Rather than treating hazardous area classification as a purely administrative task, Prozus approached it as an operational enabler: documentation that would directly influence what equipment could be selected and where it could be safely installed.
Phase 1: Review, markups, and technical assessment
Prozus began with a focused assessment of the hazardous area classification scope for the Altares facility. Using the client-provided information, our team reviewed the existing drawings, identified required updates, and established the engineering path to finalize the classification package.
Phase 2: CAD updates, authentication, and final issue
With the technical review complete, Prozus advanced the work into updated deliverables. The drawing set was refined, authenticated, and prepared as a final package aligned with applicable requirements and the client’s drafting standards.
Stamped classifications that enabled radar procurement and installation
Prozus delivered the updated and stamped hazardous area classification drawings the client needed to move the project forward. The final documentation gave the client a dependable electrical area zoning basis for selecting and installing radar equipment at the facility.
By clarifying the electrical zones and issuing authenticated drawings, Prozus helped reduce uncertainty in the decision-making process and supported safer, more informed equipment deployment.
Specialized engineering support that unlocks downstream action
Projects like this show how targeted electrical engineering work can create outsized operational value. When hazardous area classifications are accurate and clearly documented, clients can move faster on instrumentation, procurement, and field planning. That makes area classification more than a compliance task – it becomes a critical enabler of execution.
Documentation that does more than satisfy requirements
In industrial facilities, good engineering documentation is not just about completeness – it is about usability. Prozus helps clients turn technical requirements into practical deliverables that guide real decisions in the field. For this client, that meant electrical area classifications that supported the safe selection and installation of radar equipment and moved the project ahead with confidence.
