Oil and Gas Work Shirts, Pants and Boots for Refinery and Offshore Sites
Oil and gas sites operate under strict PPE requirements across offshore platforms, onshore wells, refineries and gas plants. You need to know exactly which pieces carry a genuine certification and which don't, since fire-rated and arc-rated requirements are role-specific rather than site-wide.
Oil and Gas Work Pants and Shorts
- 240 to 295GSM canvas and ripstop pants with DURA500 reinforcing (WP.3/WP.12T) Withstands hot, dusty conditions over extended shifts
- Bio-motion reflective tape option (WP.12T) Certified to AS/NZS 1906.4:2023 for visibility during night work
- Stretch back yoke and knee panels Reduces wear from extended shifts on plant and process equipment
Oil and Gas Work Shirts and Tops
- 185GSM stretch cotton twill, UPF-rated to AS 4399:2020 (LSH.1) Covers the standard everyday option, but this shirt is not certified flame-resistant
- Chambray trim lining and scallop hem with drop tail A durable, classic construction suited to daily wear
- Reinforcement tabs at the hem side seams Extends the life of the shirt under repeated movement
Oil and Gas Safety Boots and Outerwear
- Full-grain leather/microfibre/mesh upper (DURA X-1) One of the few FXD boots explicitly built for refinery work alongside mining and boiler-making
- 300°C heat-resistant outsole with a puncture-resistant insole board Covers heat and underfoot hazards on process sites
- PFAS-free DWR-finished waterproof outerwear Covers night shifts and seasonal weather changes without older-generation waterproofing chemicals
The long-sleeve work shirt range covers the standard everyday option, UPF-rated for sun protection but not certified flame-resistant. For specific fire-rated or arc-rated requirements, a dedicated FR-rated garment is needed rather than the standard shirt; check with your supplier and your site's PPE specification directly. If your role also covers general civil or construction work, the construction workwear range covers similar ground.
Oil and Gas Workwear FAQs
Does FXD's standard long-sleeve work shirt carry any fire-resistance rating?
No. The long-sleeve shirt range is UPF-rated for sun protection to AS 4399:2020 but not certified flame-resistant, so any role requiring FR clothing on an oil and gas site needs a dedicated FR-rated garment rather than relying on the standard shirt's cotton content alone.
Why is the DURA X-1 boot relevant to both mining and oil and gas sites?
The DURA X-1's intended-use list explicitly includes refinery work alongside mining, road/rail construction and boiler-making, sharing the same puncture-resistant insole board and 300°C heat-resistant outsole that both industries' process and hazard conditions require.
What's the difference between the PFAS-free DWR finish and older waterproofing treatments?
PFAS-free DWR (durable water repellent) finishes avoid the "forever chemical" compounds used in older waterproofing treatments, while still providing the water-shedding performance needed for outerwear used across long night shifts and seasonal weather changes on exposed sites.
