Aluminum Anodes
for Platforms

Deepwater's aluminum anodes are designed specifically for the offshore oil and gas industry.

Deepwater's aluminum platform anodes are cast in low-iron, high-purity aluminum alloys, and can be manufactured in a wide variety of configurations for new construction or retrofitting. All "standard" configurations are shown below. In addition to these, Deepwater can cast anodes with bulk trapezoidal cross-sections to any specifications required. Please contact us for advice on optimizing an anode to suit your specific requirements.

Key factors

1. Two Foundry Locations

The Deepwater Gaus facility is located minutes from Deepwater's headquarters in Houston, TX. Additionally, Deepwater has access to the MPE foundry in Kuantan, Indonesia. This allows us to deliver quickly to any market.

2. State of the Art Technology

Both foundries are purpose-built facilities, each less than 4 years old, equipped with the best in available technology. This allows us to produce anodes with very specific chemical compositions, to meet any requirement.

3. Standard and Custom Anodes

Deepwater specializes in delivering all of the basic anode types with core configurations to suit a wide range of offshore and marine applications. Because we manufacture our own molds we are able to offer competitive prices on custom anode shapes. Our in-house pipe benders can handle pipe up to 4” schedule 80.

4. Experience

Our team has a long resume of excellence producing quality anodes. Sr. Antonio Galvan has been in the anode production business since 1978, when he assumed control of the family foundry operation. Sr. Galvan has dedicated his career to the efficient production of sacrificial anodes. Mr. Jim Britton (CEO of Deepwater) has been responsible for many innovations in offshore corrosion control. He has specialized in the inspection and testing of anodes, and has been active on NACE committees associated with anode quality since 1980.
