Exhibitor Spotlight: Re-Gen Robotics

Re-Gen Robotics is revolutionising oil tank cleaning, with self-contained robotic systems that make the process SAFER, FASTER and SMARTER than traditional methods.

Re-Gen Robotics is the first and only Zone 0 Ex-certified robotic tank cleaning company in the UK. It is part of the Re-Gen Group, a second-generation, family-owned group of companies employing over 450 staff, which has have consistently led industry in a number of fields since the early 1970s. Engineering is in our DNA, and our commitment to innovation and technological advancement is key to our success.

Our company was founded to address the hazardous nature of traditional oil sludge removal from storage tanks, which has previously been carried out with manned confined space entry. Despite efforts to improve safety, the number of deaths in confined space entries remains high. By implementing robotic sludge removal, we effectively isolate humans from these dangers, providing a safer solution.

Today, our robotic tank cleaning services operate across the UK, Europe and USA, predominantly serving the refining and oil storage industry.

How it works

Re-Gen Robotics’ award winning robotic tank cleaning equipment is making tank cleaning and maintenance SAFER, FASTER & SMARTER, not only meeting but exceeding current health and safety standards by removing the risk to life which occurs during traditional hazardous cleaning methods.

Our bespoke robotic equipment is self-contained, enters through manways of 24”/600mm dia. and is remotely operated from an air-conditioned control room. Our robot takes the risk out of humans entering tanks in breathing apparatus to de-sludge the tanks manually.

Our robot using vacuum suction removes the sludge directly from where it is located within the tank. This technique works with most types and sizes of tank and with any consistency of oil, even the most viscous oils contaminated with sand and scale. The robot mobilises sludge through the addition of either heat or cutting agents or in the most difficult cases, both.

This is why we are laser focused on cleaning tanks robotically, rather than manually.
