Our welded tank installation teams specialize in oil tanks and are familiar with Contractor Health Environment Safety Management (CHESM) processes to ensure IFO (Injury Free Operation) during the tank erection.
In addition to installation of new welded oil storage tanks, our field crews are experts at oil tank repairs. We can provide repairs ranging from coating renovation, shell patching, foundation repairs and new/replacement appurtenances. Our field teams are highly trained on safety processes involving oil storage tank repairs such as confined entry and other procedures.
