Shawn Owens is the CEO of PRT and managing director of all Stainless Steel shop and field work which includes projects such as (02) 90,000bbl ethanol tanks in St. Charles, LA to (04) 100,000 gallon water tanks for State of California. PRT primary SS projects are to wineries, dairy, beer, olive oil, chemical, and fertiliser facilities. PRT built each of last couple years $12+ million dollars full SS wine tanks in Livingstone, CA and Napa, CA which included 70+ field stainless tanks each contract. No job is too big, nor too small, for PRT to build. Wombles adds, “PRT separates itself from the competition in several ways, which include its long list of accreditations ranging from SSPC QP- certified, STI/SPFA Tank of the Year award-winning contractor for nine consecutive years, having active board members on the committees which govern the standards we work from, seven on staff CWI’s, NACE Level III Inspection, and many more. What also sets us apart is our eagerness to improve the codes, standards, design, and the overall product that was previously considered acceptable. We work diligently with every customer to use our vast range of experience to mitigate potential risks and maximise service life for their asset. All that being said, at the core of our company is our motto which we live by every day and I believe is the real reason for our success; SAFETY + QUALITY = PRODUCTION. Make no mistake that safety is first for a reason! ‘In addition, PRT is able to offer our turnkey services to not only include full tank design, engineering, CAD, Shop fabrication, shop coatings, field erection, and field coatings on all your tank needs, but PRT is able to extend that turnkey service for site grading, foundation, piping, fencing, electrical and other site work via our sister company RSH Construction, which is also owned by our parent company, Associated Construction and Engineering, Inc. (ACE). With our synergy between the business units, it enables us to control and manage the projects successfully versus handing off to different outside contractors.
