What tank sandblasting costs around Shreveport.
Industrial tank blasting in the Shreveport area runs $4 to $9 per square foot for an exterior blasted to SSPC-SP 6 and coated with a two-coat system, and $6 to $12 per square foot for interior lining prep to SP 10 near-white. In practical terms, a standard 500-barrel production tank exterior lands between $2,500 and $6,000, a frac tank between $1,800 and $4,000, and battery work prices better per tank because one mobilization covers the set. Caddo Tank Blasting is an industrial tank sandblasting contractor serving the Shreveport and Ark-La-Tex region, and those numbers come from the published rate sheet on our cost page rather than a number invented at your gate. Blast standard, profile readings, and products applied are documented on every job, and the invoice matches the quote.
This corner of Louisiana runs on tanks. The climate runs on corrosion.
The Haynesville Shale filled Bossier, DeSoto, and Caddo parishes with tank batteries, and the Caddo-Pine Island field has been working steel for over a century before that. Add the Port of Caddo-Bossier, the fuel and fleet corridor on I-20, and the water tanks every parish town owns, and you get thousands of tanks standing in Gulf humidity. Coatings here age faster than the spec sheets promise, and the first generation of shale-era tanks is reaching recoat age all at once.
Caddo Tank Blasting does the work under all of it: battery and lease work, water tank programs, and interior linings, priced in writing before anyone mobilizes.
Six kinds of steel, one rate sheet.
Production tank batteries
Crude, condensate, and produced-water tanks on Haynesville pads and legacy leases, blasted and recoated one tank at a time while the battery keeps producing.
Water tanks and towers
Municipal and district tank exteriors and interiors under the standards water systems require, with NSF-listed lining systems on anything potable.
Tank interiors and linings
Near-white SP 10 interior blasts with profile verified, dehumidification when the weather argues, and prep the lining manufacturer will warranty.
Fuel and AST work
Aboveground fuel tanks blasted and coated under fuel-service rules: gas-free verification, bonding and grounding, and the records an inspection file wants.
Plant and structural steel
Vessels, pipe racks, skids, and building steel blasted to spec during shutdowns and turnarounds, scheduled backward from your window.
Yard and rental equipment
Frac tanks, containments, skids, and trailers batch-blasted and repainted so rental steel looks rentable and fleet steel lasts.
The rate sheet is public. Budget the job before you call.
Per-square-foot rates by prep standard, per-tank ranges for the common sizes, and mobilization stated as its own line: it is all on the cost page, so an operator, a plant manager, or a water board can put a real number in a budget before the first phone call. The quote comes off that sheet, and what could move a number gets said at the walkdown, not on the invoice.
The Ark-La-Tex, parish by parish.
Bossier holds the port and plant steel. Haughton and Mansfield hold the Haynesville batteries. Oil City holds a century-old field that still pumps. Each area page covers the tanks that place actually owns and what the work costs.
