Tank Inspection
A Total Service Package
Storage Tank Inspections
As part of our Total Service package we offer ‘In Service’ and ‘Out of Service’ storage tank inspections to refineries and tank storage terminals. Using the latest technology, our fully qualified API 653 Tank Inspectors carry out Detailed Visual Inspection (DVI) and all our Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) Technicians are trained and certificated in:
- Ultrasonic Testing (UT)
- Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI)
- Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL)
Typical NDT inspections carried out:
Bunded Area
Tank Roof
Tank Shell
Tank Bottom
Electricals
Level Alarms
Venting
Fire Equipment
Internal Piping
Tank Earthing
The advantages include:
- No scaffold, no rope access, fully automated Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) method of inspection.
No interface between contractors – we can commence inspection of the tank externals while the cleaning is taking place leaving only the floor scan and internal DVI, settlement etc. for when the tank has been cleaned to hot-work standard. This can reduce the tanks downtime.
- If we are providing both cleaning and inspection, then this eliminates any potential misunderstanding regarding the degree of clean required to conduct the NDT, saving both time and money.
