The unpredictable and often extreme weather conditions in oil drilling regions create a significant need for reliable storm shelters. Protecting workers from natural disasters resulting from tornadoes is vitally important to ensuring their safety and maintaining operations. Red Dog addresses this critical need with its portable storm shelters, designed specifically for lease to oil drilling sites. Offering exceptional protection, these shelters combine advanced technology and convenience to protect the workforce in the harshest conditions.
Red Dog storm shelters notable for their robust construction, using 100% thick A36 steel. This material, combined with a reinforced design, enables the shelter to endure impacts as severe as a 20,000-pound truck hurled by an EF5 tornado. This shelter as undergone rigorous testing at the Texas Tech Wind Science and Engineering Research Center, exceeding FEMA’s highest safe room rating. Our dedication to safety makes Red Dog a trusted choice for leading oil companies like BP, Chevron, and Conoco Phillips.
Each Red Dog shelter is built to house up to 32 individuals, offering features that prioritize comfort and functionality. With dual air conditioners, heaters, and a rapid cool-down station, the shelters maintain an optimal internal climate, regardless of external conditions. Additional amenities include a desk, benches, and a spacious 288-square-foot floorplan that promotes comfort during extended stays. These features help oil rig workers focus on safety without compromising well-being.
A hallmark feature of the Red Dog shelter is its Aerodynamic Anchoring™ technology. This system leverages wind forces to secure the shelter firmly to the ground, mimicking the suction effect of a vacuum. The stronger the winds, the more stable the shelter becomes. This innovative design keeps the structure grounded during the fiercest tornadoes, delivering superior protection.
Leasing a Red Dog shelter provides oil companies with a cost-effective solution for temporary work sites. These storm shelters are easy to install, requiring only ten minutes, and can operate using on-site power or a 5kW generator. This flexibility makes them ideal for dynamic oil drilling environments.
