Oil & Gas Control Panel Shop

UL-certified control panels built for oilfield automation, pump control, hazardous locations, and long-term field reliability.

Talk With Our Team

Oil and gas production depends on control panels that work in harsh field conditions. Well pads, SWD facilities, LACT units, pump systems, tank batteries, MCCs, VFDs, instrumentation, and SCADA-connected assets all rely on panels that are built correctly, documented clearly, and ready to perform in the field.

When a panel fails, the result is not just an electrical problem. It can mean downtime, lost production, troubleshooting delays, unsafe conditions, failed startup, and expensive emergency response.

DSI builds UL-certified industrial control panels for oil and gas operations, including UL508A and UL698A panels for demanding applications. Our panel shop works directly with DSI automation, electrical construction, fabrication, and field service teams so panels are not just built correctly in the shop. They are designed to install, commission, and operate reliably in real production environments.

Full-Scope Panel Shop Support for Oilfield Operations

One team. One build. One accountable partner.

Oilfield panel projects do not happen in isolation. The panel has to match the application, the field conditions, the electrical infrastructure, the automation logic, the hazardous area requirements, and the way operators will maintain the system over time.

DSI brings panel building, automation, electrical construction, fabrication, and field service under one umbrella. That means fewer handoffs, better coordination, cleaner startup, and panels that are built with the full system in mind.

From concept through fabrication, testing, documentation, installation support, and field commissioning, DSI helps oil and gas operators reduce risk and keep production moving.

UL698A and hazardous location control panels for oil and gas

UL698A and Hazardous Location Panels

Oil and gas sites can require panels built for hazardous environments where gases or vapors may be present. DSI supports UL698A / Class I Div 2 panel applications where safety, compliance, and proper component selection matter.

Hazardous location control panels
Class I Div 2 applications
Proper UL-listed or recognized components
Enclosure and spacing requirements
Safe wiring and termination practices
Documentation for inspections and audits
Oilfield site safety considerations
Panel designs that support field installation and maintenance

When hazardous location requirements apply, panel quality is not optional. DSI builds with the standards and discipline these applications demand.

Pump, VFD, and Motor Control Panels

Oilfield pump systems need control panels that support reliable operation, field troubleshooting, and safe startup. DSI builds panels for pump control, VFD applications, and motor control systems used across production environments.

Pump control panels
VFD pump panels
Regen-drive pump jack systems
MCC-related controls
Motor control panels
Drive modernization panels
Pump automation panels
Power and control wiring coordination
Startup and field commissioning support

Because DSI also supports electrical construction and automation, the panel can be built with the field installation and control strategy in mind from the beginning.

Automation Interface Panels

Oilfield operators rely on automation and remote monitoring to understand production, alarms, equipment status, and site performance. DSI builds panels that connect field devices, PLCs, RTUs, and communications infrastructure.

SCADA interface panels
RTU panels
PLC control panels
Instrumentation termination panels
Communications panels
Remote monitoring panels
Sensor and device wiring
Panel integration with automation programming
Field testing and troubleshooting support

DSI’s automation and panel shop teams work together so control panels support the logic, visibility, and field data operators need.

Repeat builds and custom oilfield control panels

Repeat Builds and Custom Oilfield Panels

Some oilfield panels need to be repeated across multiple sites. Others are one-off builds that require more engineering and coordination. DSI supports both.

Repeat-build well site panels
High-volume control box builds
Standardized panel programs
Custom engineered panels
Component planning and documentation
Consistent wire labeling and workmanship
Shop-floor quality control
Field feedback integration
Long-term maintainability improvements

DSI can support operators who need consistency across sites without losing the flexibility required for unique field conditions.

Panel Testing, Documentation, and Field Support

A panel is not ready just because it is assembled. DSI tests panels before shipment and provides documentation that supports installation, troubleshooting, and long-term operation.

Factory acceptance testing
Power-on panel testing
Wire labeling verification
Torque and termination checks
UL documentation
Component documentation
Redlined or corrected drawings
FAT results
Field installation drawings
Startup and commissioning support

The goal is simple: panels that arrive ready for installation and perform when the system goes live.

Built for Oilfield Reliability

Panels that perform in the field, not just on the shop floor.

Oilfield environments are hard on equipment. Heat, cold, vibration, dust, moisture, hazardous conditions, and remote locations all increase the cost of poor panel design and poor workmanship.

DSI builds control panels with real-world field conditions in mind. Our team understands how panels are installed, how they are wired, how they are commissioned, and how operators and technicians will work with them years later.

Built for harsh field environments
Designed for service access and maintainability
Coordinated with automation and electrical teams
Tested before shipment
Documented for installation and inspection
Supported by field service experience
Built for long-term production reliability

Field-Proven Across Major Oil and Gas Regions

DSI builds oilfield control panels for operators working the country’s most active basins, including the Permian Basin around Midland and Odessa and the Williston Basin and Bakken. Panels are built to the standards those production environments demand and shipped ready to install.
