Cleaning of Above Ground Storage Tanks (AST), is a vital part of the operations in the oil and petrochemical industries. The cleaning of crude oil and derivative product tanks is required prior to periodic inspection and subsequent mechanical work.
Particularly, in cases of larger tanks containing crude oil, or other “black oil” products, such as residue, and heavy gas oils, cleaning of these tanks is a major undertaking that requires a great deal of planning, resources, manpower, time, and expenses. Moreover, the increasingly stringent legislation and regulations regarding environmental protection, safety practices, and operator’s health, have placed additional pressures on the oil and petrochemical industries to utilize safer and more environmentally friendly tank cleaning methods.
