Fire protection is one of the most critical components of industrial facility safety. For companies that In the high stakes world of oil and gas production, reliable fire protection is a top priority. Flameout Design & Fabrication stands as a leader in custom engineering of industrial fire protection systems, serving the industry since 1989. Our team combines cutting edge design software and decades of hands on experience to deliver bespoke fire safety solutions tailored to every facility. From offshore rigs and gas plants to onshore production wells, we handle projects of any scale with end to end expertise. We manage everything from the initial concept and prototyping through fabrication and global delivery.
Advanced Design Tools for Custom Engineering
Utilizing industry leading software, Flameout ensures precision in every design. Tools like AutoCAD and more to allow our engineers to model complex piping and control systems in detail. This advanced software integration means we can optimize every aspect of a fire protection system early in the process. Combined with our deep product knowledge, it ensures a seamless transition from design to fabrication without costly revisions. These advanced engineering tools are central to our custom engineering approach.
End-to-End Fabrication Capabilities
At Flameout, design is just the beginning; fabrication is our core. We operate a full service manufacturing facility, giving us control of every stage of production. Our in-house capabilities include ASME certified welding, custom metal fabrication, precision piping and assembly. For example, we specialize in fire protection skid fabrication, building robust units that integrate pumps, valves, and controls into a single package. This single source workflow ensures quality and consistency: by making prototypes and final products under one roof, Flameout meets tight schedules without sacrificing durability.
ASME Welding: Certified welding for pressure vessels, valves, and piping.
