Hunting Energy Services

The facility is strategically located in a new industrial park with immediate access to a major arterial highway. To meet an aggressive timeline, the project was executed using a design-build approach. This integrated process allowed the facility to be completed in under one year.

The shop area is designed with generous overhead clearances to accommodate ten bridge cranes, hose reels, and HVAC distribution. Combined with a flexible, open floor plan and glazed overhead door panels, the space maximizes daylight penetration. Light-colored interior surfaces further reflect borrowed natural light, reducing reliance on artificial lighting throughout the day while enhancing worker comfort and productivity. Operational functionality is further supported by dedicated amenities including welding bays, a phosphate dip tank, parts storage, seven jib cranes, a paint booth, and covered outdoor storage. An enclosed wash bay enables equipment to be cleaned immediately upon extraction from the field, preserving the cleanliness of repair bays and improving workflow efficiency.

In the office / business wing, perimeter offices are oriented to capture daylight and views. Less frequently occupied support spaces are located centrally to optimize daylight access for primary workspaces.
