 Aboveground
storage tanks (AST) are any tank
that rest on top of the ground and
has water, chemicals or fuel oils.
These tanks are very diverse in
construction materials and the main
materials for AST construction are
from plain carbon steel, to
fiberglass reinforced plastics (FRP),
to high density polyethylene (HDPE)
and to stainless steels. AIS tank
service has the knowledge and
experience you need from the loading
& transfer station to the tank.

SPCC (Spill
Prevention Control & Countermeasure)
Plans
Our SPCC Plan is a carefully thought
out and prepared in accordance with
good engineering practice.
Corrective action plans for
preventing spills. Evaluate
for tank overflow, rupture, or
leakage with a prediction of the
direction, rate of flow, and total
quantity of discharge.
Recommend appropriate containment
and/or diversionary structures or
equipment to prevent discharges from
reaching bodies of water.

API-653 Tank Inspections (Codes &
Standards)
Safety inspections of tanks should
not be second-rate. Thoroughness and
well documented tank inspection is
your first step to full compliance.
We believe our success is our
success and safety is in everyone's
interest.

Repair Design of Tanks
A typical repair design to a tank is
a replacement repair since tanks by
their very nature, thickness to
physical size, use the membrane
design theory. Therefore,
tanks are reasonably flexible and
are easily deformed. If you
want safe engineering solutions that
benefit your environment call us and
arrange a visit. We want you
to have a good experience.

Chemical Tanks
|
Did you know that chemical tanks
operate in a more severe service
than fuel oil tanks.
 |
 |
Fuel Oil Tanks
|
Did you know that fuel oil tanks
corrode usually from the inside
out and insulated tanks can
corrode rapidly from the outside
in. |
