Home / Productivity Boost In Spherical Tank Project With VertiDrive

VERTIDRIVE DELIVERS 260 FT2/HR DURING SPHERICAL TANK PROJECT

OIL & GAS
TEXAS

OVERVIEW

In December 2022, Brock, a leading industrial maintenance solutions provider, approached us with a challenge. The task was to remove a 12-15 mils epoxy urethane coating from a spherical tank in Texas. The project’s primary objectives were to enhance productivity, improve safety, and decrease labor requirements, all while maintaining the highest quality standards.

SET-UP

We recommended using the VertiDrive. This powerful abrasive blasting robot, featuring 2 #8 Hyper nozzles and a 6 Ton bulk Amphiblast pot, was specially made for projects like this. The VertiDrive, operating at 104 psi at the nozzle with nickel slag abrasive, promised an efficient solution that could deliver high precision and safety.

RESULTS

Despite the customer not implementing all of our advised adjustments and experiencing compressor failures, the results were encouraging. The VertiDrive delivered a productivity rate of 260 sq ft/hr.

CONCLUSION

This case study serves as a testament to the VertiDrive’s output even when faced with operational hiccups. It showcases how the VertiDrive can help achieve productivity, safety, and labor cost objectives, even when not all recommended parameters are followed.
