Case Studies
70' STYRENE TANK | PETROCHEMICAL — SIDE LAUNCH
A refinery had a 70-foot styrene monomer tank that was a candidate for robotic inspection — however, styrene had not previously been tested for compatibility with Square Robot's systems.
Case Studies
70' LUBE OIL TANK | REFINERY
A Texas refinery operated a 70-foot diameter lube oil tank that was subject to heightened quality control and assurance standards. Taking the tank out of service for a conventional API 653 inspection would have been extremely disruptive to production operations and costly to manage.
Case Studies
30' DIESEL TANK | POWER PLANT
A cogeneration power plant relied on a 30-foot diameter diesel tank to supply fuel for its turbines. A full API 653 out-of-service inspection would have required temporary storage equipment, taken the tank offline, and forced the manufacturing plant that the facility powered to shut down temporarily as well.
Case Studies
118' DIESEL TANK | MIDSTREAM TERMINAL — MOZAMBIQUE
A fuel storage terminal in Mozambique required an inspection of their primary diesel storage tank. The terminal's remote location meant that taking the tank out of service would have created severe logistical and supply chain disruptions, with impacts far beyond the facility itself.
Case Studies
112' DIESEL TANK | POWER PLANT
A power generation facility relied on a single 112-foot diameter diesel tank to supply backup generators. With no secondary storage available, taking the tank out of service for a conventional API 653 inspection would have required alternate storage to be brought in, making it a costly and lengthy endeavour.
Case Studies
78' RENEWABLE DIESEL TANK | BIOREFINERY
A biorefinery facility in Geismar, Louisiana required an API 653 inspection of its renewable diesel storage tank.
