State-of-the-Art Crude Oil Storage Tanks
At Ommoord Shipping, we utilize 100,000 m³ crude oil storage tanks, the industry standard for storing crude oil globally. Our tanks are meticulously designed and constructed to ensure the safe and efficient storage of crude oil.
Our storage tanks are built on foundations with varying hardness levels, taking into account the geological conditions of the surrounding area. In areas prone to seismic activity, our tanks are designed to withstand the impact of active geological fault zones. For tanks storing crude oil with high wax content, our seal glands are equipped with advanced features such as rainproofing, wax scraping, and secondary seals.
The bottom of our crude oil tanks are designed to accommodate a layer of saltwater sediment, which can accumulate over time. When storing heavy, high-sulfur content, or acidic crude oil, our tanks are equipped with advanced anti-corrosion systems to prevent damage and ensure the integrity of the tank. For large-capacity tanks with significant reserves, our anti-corrosion systems are specifically designed to mitigate the risk of corrosion and ensure the safe storage of crude oil. Some key features of our tanks are:
- Robust foundation design.
- Advanced seal gland design for high-wax content crude oil.
- Corrosion protection and bottom sediment management systems.
- Designed to withstand seismic activity and extreme weather conditions.
