  • An internal or external inspection performed to maintain and ensure the integrity of a storage tank.
  • Measurement of tank settlement comprises three components: uniform settlement, planar tilt, and out-of-plane settlement. While excessive uniform settlement and uniform settlement may not impair the structural integrity of tanks, they can cause serviceability issues. Out-of-plane settlement can lead to serviceability problems of the tank and also induce localized stress concentration that may cause accelerated corrosion or rupture. Measured settlements need to be evaluated to determine the effects on tanks.

a) Precision tank calibration services: Ensuring accuracy in stock management

  • Our tank calibration services are designed to provide accurate measurements and volumetric tables for both shore and ship installations, terminals, and tank farms. Whether you are in the oil and gas industry or managing distilleries, having precise data on your storage tanks is crucial for stock control and loss prevention.
  • In a world where businesses need to watch their expenses closely, maintaining cost control in the handling of petroleum, LNG, LPG, chemicals, and oils is crucial. Whether it is storing, transferring, blending, or processing these substances, having accurate measurements is vital. Ensuring that storage and processing tanks are precisely calibrated is essential for meeting the highest product standards. A top-notch calibration not only guarantees high-quality products but also reduces complications with customers, government authorities, internal inventory management, and accountability.

b) Should you calibrate regularly?

  • Even though we cannot see it, tank shells go through changes. Things like liquid pressure, temperature, and settling can affect their size. If you do not calibrate them or do it incorrectly, it can lead to volume differences and height references being off. Plus, if you make any changes or fix the tank, you should recalibrate it.
