Clemco Blast Rooms For Oilfield Equipment
Oilfield equipment finishing involves skids, frames, tanks, guards, housings, pipe supports and service equipment that need abrasive preparation before protective coating. Double D Mechanical installs, relocates and services blast rooms, abrasive blast booths, media reclaim systems, paint booths, exhaust ductwork, make-up air equipment, lighting and utility connections for oil and gas fabrication workflows.

Skid And Frame Access
Oilfield skids and frames can be heavy, irregular and crowded with brackets or pipe supports. A Clemco style blast room should leave room for carts, forklifts, stands, lifting points and operator access to welds, corners and underside surfaces.
Preparation Before Protective Coats
Blasting, blowdown, inspection, masking and coating should be sequenced so prepared surfaces stay clean. The layout should reduce cross-traffic between fabrication dust, abrasive recovery, paint mixing and spray areas.
Ventilation And Utility Coordination
Blast rooms, paint booths and air units need coordinated exhaust routes, make-up air, compressed air, electrical service, heat connections and controls. Roof structure, nearby process exhaust and maintenance access can shape the final mechanical routing.
Repair And Relocation Details
For service or relocation planning, gather equipment drawings, photos, duct routes, dust collector location, reclaim layout, utility disconnect points, floor condition, rigging path and destination dimensions.
Frequently asked questions
What oilfield parts affect booth sizing?
Skids, frames, housings, guards, tank sections, pipe supports, carts and lifting fixtures all affect required space.
Why is sequence important after blasting?
Prepared steel can pick up dust or handling contamination, so it should move through inspection, masking and coating in a controlled path.
What utilities should be reviewed?
Compressed air, electrical service, fuel or heat connections, exhaust fans, make-up air, controls and lighting should be reviewed.
What information helps with relocation planning?
Current drawings, equipment tags, photos, duct and utility routes, reclaim details, rigging constraints and the new layout help define the work.
