This 20ft DNV Offshore-Rated Container is built for secure transport and storage in marine environments. Certified to DNV 2.7-1 standards, it is constructed for use on fixed and floating offshore installations.
Key Features
- DNV 2.7-1 certification: Designed, built, and certified to the rigorous requirements of DNV 2.7-1, the internationally authoritative standard for offshore containers.
- High-strength construction: Made from corrosion-resistant steel to withstand harsh weather, salt spray, and the dynamic forces of maritime transport.
- Certified lifting gear: Supplied with DNV-certified lifting slings for safe, compliant handling in offshore lifting operations.
- Stackable design: Engineered for secure stacking, even with lifting slings attached, to optimize deck space during transport or storage.
- CSC plated: Complies with the International Convention for Safe Containers (CSC) for international transport.
This 20ft Offshore-Rated Container is a portable unit purpose-built for the repeated transport of goods and equipment to, from, or between offshore installations. Its primary use is in the oil and gas industry and on offshore wind farms, where equipment must endure significant operational demands.
Structural integrity is verified through a comprehensive DNV certification process covering a detailed design evaluation, a production process audit, and a final prototype inspection. High-strength steel is used for the main structure, with materials chosen to prevent brittle fracture and resist corrosion.
Corner castings and lifting points are reinforced and arranged to handle the specific mechanical stresses of lifts at sea. The design accounts for all critical transport phases, including delivery from shore, on-board securing, and dynamic lifting. Units manufactured after 2018 are designed, built, and certified to meet DNV 2.7-1 together with ISO 10855-1.
Internal lashing points come standard, allowing various cargo types to be secured within the container. The robust, proven design delivers reliable performance and longevity in demanding settings.

This container is intended for the storage and transport of general cargo, equipment, and supplies in offshore environments. It suits use on offshore supply vessels, oil rigs, platforms, and floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessels, providing a secure, weather-resistant way to move essential materials to and from marine installations.
Package Includes
- 1 x 20ft DNV Offshore-Rated Container
- 1 x Set of DNV-Certified Lifting Slings
20ft DNV Offshore Container for Sale: Built for the Lift, Not Just the Load
A standard box is designed to be stacked on a ship and left alone. A DNV offshore container for sale is designed to be lifted repeatedly, in weather, from a moving deck, which is an entirely different structural problem. Certification to DNV 2.7-1 covers that duty, including the frame, the padeyes, and the lifting set supplied with the unit.
If your work touches an offshore installation, a supply vessel, or a wind farm, that paperwork is not optional. Most operators will not permit a lift of any container that cannot show current certification and identification.
Specifications at a Glance
- Nominal size: 20-foot offshore container in standard container width
- Certification: designed, built, and certified to DNV 2.7-1 for offshore units
- Transport compliance: CSC plated for international carriage
- Lifting gear: supplied with DNV-certified slings for compliant handling
- Construction: heavy reinforced frame in corrosion-resistant steel for salt exposure
- Stacking: engineered to stack securely, including with the sling set attached
- Interior note: internal dimensions are slightly reduced against a standard 20ft box because of the heavier frame
- Delivery: flat $500 to all 50 states, tax-inclusive pricing
Offshore and Industrial Applications
Offshore-rated units also get bought for onshore work where the lifting duty, not the sea, is the reason.
- Oil and gas supply runs to fixed platforms and drilling units
- Offshore wind construction, commissioning, and maintenance campaigns
- Marine construction, dredging, and port infrastructure projects
- Survey, subsea, and ROV equipment transport between vessels and shore bases
- Heavy industrial sites where containers are craned frequently rather than trucked
Certification, Paperwork, and Ordering
Request the current certificate and inspection record with your order, because periodic re-examination is part of keeping a 2.7-1 unit in service and operators will ask for it at the gate. Store the sling set with the container and keep its documentation together. Speak to our team about certification details and specification before you commit. You can also review the wider specialized container range, the 20ft container category, and the 10ft DNV 2.7-1 half-height open tops if your loads are better suited to top loading.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does DNV 2.7-1 actually cover?
It is the recognized standard for offshore freight containers, addressing design, materials, fabrication, and the lifting arrangement, verified through design review, production auditing, and testing. In practice it is what allows a unit to be lifted between a vessel and an installation under normal operator requirements.
Are the lifting slings included?
Yes, the unit is supplied with a certified sling set intended for use with it. Keep the slings paired with the container, inspect them on the schedule your operator requires, and retain the certification documents, since a set without paperwork will usually be refused at the point of lift.
Can it be used as ordinary storage?
It can, and some buyers do exactly that on heavy industrial sites. You are paying for a reinforced frame and certification, so it is over-specified for a builder's yard. If the lifting duty is not part of your requirement, a standard 20ft container will serve at a lower price.
