WHAT IS AN EQUIPMENT SKID?

 

An equipment skid can be used for a wide range of things. It is basically a flat metal pallet used for housing and transporting a variety of elements, particularly machinery and related equipment. These skids must be built durable and in order to withstand heavy loads and must be able to maintain themselves while being transported. It is also of utmost importance that skids be built to survive in the harsh environments and extreme conditions that they are most often used in, especially if that environment is that of an offshore platform.
