Emerson Process Management will install its DeltaV SIS safety instrumented system at fuel storage and distribution sites operated by BP Oil across the UK

Many terminals and tank farms struggle with tank gauging because they use outdated equipment, resulting in unreliable operations,
inefficient routines and high operational costs. However, modern tank gauging systems can solve these issues, resulting in im

The use of tank gauging technology to remotely monitor floating roofs increases safety at terminals.

There is no ‘one size fits all’ level measurement technology for overfi ll prevention systems, says Christoffer Widahl.

Radar level gauges with two separate and independent electrical units and a common antenna can provide a cost-effective solution for tank overfill protection. Emerson’s Johan Sandberg explains how, in terms of independence and technology diversification,

Tomas Hasselgren, global business development manager for tank gauging at Emerson, explains how emulation technology helps organisations replace old or malfunctioning equipment for safer operations .

Tank gauging emulation allows existing “old school” gauges to be replaced with modern radar-based technology without the need to make any changes to the communication or wiring infrastructure.
