Frac Tank Coating and Foaming

Background

The project was to coat, foam and paint six frac tanks for future deployment in the field. The tanks were new construction and dimensions were 12’ high, 12’ wide and 50’ long. All coating and foaming work was completed two at a time in Coating Shop 1 at Ar-Tech in Taber AB during a two-month period.

Application

The tanks were laid out in the blast and coating shops so that they could be completed 2 at a time. Interior coating was Devchem 253 with Devmat 111 applied to the floor and 8” up the walls. The exterior was to be insulated with 2” foam and then painted with a black elastomeric. Some paint detailing was done to the stairs and ladder extensions.
