TANK ANALYSIS – API-653

For bulk storage operators capturing accurate tank data is an integral part of ensuring efficient
day to day running of your facility. Be it for production, engineering, maintenance or health &
safety, having a level of recorded information that can be shared readily with your colleagues
across the globe can be invaluable.
No longer will you require temporary access platforms to elevate your traditional equipment
into position in order to collect information about the tank surface. No longer are you limited
to a few hundred data points offering limited information for your reports. 3D Laser scanning is
cost effective and in a short period, provides many millions of data points for your analysis and
reporting.
In worst-case scenarios, inaccuracy or absence of data can lead to costly incidents such as a storage
tank rupture, with consequential repairs, loss in production and negative environmental impact.
The Storage sector is already benefiting hugely from use of our 3D Laser scanning technology,
backed ably by our tank analysis program. Tank scanning can be completed before influencing
factors including temperature or tank contents can affect your results. Our tank analysis reports
are both versatile and informative and can include, but not limited to the following outputs:
ROLLOUT GRADIENT MAP
RADIAL DEFELECTION
VERTICAL ALIGNMENT
TANK SETTLEMENT
BUND VOLUME ANALYSIS
