Lazy Q Ranch - Quanta Service Training Facility

John Colson, founder of Quanta Services opened a training facility known as Lazy Q Ranch in August 2015 where the industry workforce could be trained under the strictest safety measures.

The Lazy Q Ranch is a world class training facility situated on over 2,100 acres focusing on safety education, skill development and certifications.

Training is available for electric power lineman on cutting-edge technology for all transmission structure types ans up to 345kV. This area is powered by its own substation, completely separate from the power provided for the ranch. Quanta Energized Services oversees this portion of the training facility, bringing proprietary technology techniques to the workforce.

The oil and gas section houses pipelines in all major diameters, a flow loop and underground testing capabilities. The pipeline area was designed to be flexible and allow for various diameter pipes to be brought in for integrity testing and training, making this a custom-solution for training on a challenging project.

The telecommunications village features a small town with homes at various stages of construction. This enables development training at all milestones of a project.

The Lazy Q Ranch evolves with the industry and was designed to mirror Quanta’s growth. As Quanta Services expand their service capabilities, so will the training facility.
