LQT Industries, LLC, a full-service provider of high quality accommodation facilities, design-build construction services, and support services to the energy and industrial markets, has delivered their first aluminum blast rated rental building to a petrochemical company in Louisiana.

“LQT continues to expand their aluminum building technology with blast rated modules (BRM) for use in a variety of industries. Our customers are increasingly seeing the benefits of aluminum for its strength, durability, low maintenance, and continuing track record of success in some of the harshest conditions,” said Bill Guidry, VP at LQT Industries. “Whether E Houses, offices, RIE’s, man camps or operator shelters, LQT’s aluminum buildings meet the demand.”

LQT expanded into the petrochemical/industrial market in 2015 and estimates that 25% of current revenue is generated from the industrial/petrochemical market segment. The company currently has projects for fire and safety, new construction, equipment rentals, and blast rated rental buildings in this market. The high quality of service and after-market support for which LQT is known in the offshore energy sector has been a key factor of growth in the petrochemical/industrial market.

LQT is also shipping over 27 offshore aluminum modular buildings with auxiliary equipment to support offshore Gulf of Mexico operations for major oil and gas companies. “We are extremely encouraged by the response we are getting from our customers. Our aluminum buildings and service set the standard in the GOM,” said Randy Dardar, Broussard Operations Manager at LQT Industries.
