STORAGE TANK INSPECTION

Condition monitoring and planned maintenance of above ground storage tanks is vital when storing hazardous substances. Storage tank failure from corrosion can cause environmental contamination and product losses. 

​

A structural and integrity inspection of your tank by a qualified and certified API653 tank inspector can help prevent such disasters and ensure that your tank meets all relevant  regulations and codes.

​

Tank inspection intervals can vary from monthly for a visual inspection for tank, valves and vents to ten yearly for non-destructive testing to prove continued structural integrity of the tank shell, floor plates and roof plates.

​

Upon completion of your tank inspection, the inspector will provide:

​

• Detailed structural integrity and condition  report with referencing to API 653 and API 575.

• Assessment of the remaining life of the tank

• Determination of the scope of repairs and alterations required.

• Provide defect tolerance and fitness for service assessments in accordance with the relevant standards.

• Conduct a remaining life assessment.

• Investigation to determine the cause of any defects found and any failures.

Our API 653 tank inspector can undertake any storage tank inspection requirements you may have.
