CHICAGO, IL — Revelation Auctions has announced its most expansive industrial auction to date, a 6-day online event beginning June 3, featuring equipment from a closed offshore oil and gas manufacturing facility. With over 3,000 lots, this is a rare chance for buyers to acquire high-capacity CNC machines, turning centers, support equipment, and tooling from a single location — all available at competitive opening bids.
This auction presents a significant opportunity for shops, manufacturers, and fabricators to scale up fast with machinery that includes:
- 2023 Fives Giddings & Lewis VTLs
- Heavy-duty boring mills and horizontal machining centers
- CNC lathes and turning centers

Bidding starts at just $5, and there are no reserve prices on lots. Each item is accurately listed with up-to-date details and images, reflecting Revelation Auction's ongoing commitment to transparency and precision. Buyers are encouraged to schedule inspections for additional due diligence.
"This facility was built to handle high-output oilfield manufacturing, and the equipment reflects that," said a representative from Revelation Auctions. "We're seeing late-model machines, some as recent as 2023, all in excellent condition and ready to go to work. It's a fast-track growth opportunity for any shop looking to expand capacity."

Featured Product
FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
