Floating roof tank has built in buoyancy that allows the roof to float on top of the content in open or closed top tank.
Internal floating roof installation procedure.
There is limited procedure and rules in designing the floating roof which result lots of floating roof failure and caused injuries and fatalities accident.
Because the flexible floating roof deck can float up and down to close to the liquid level gas space above the liquid level can be greatly reduced thereby greatly reducing the evaporation loss of the stored oil.
Over the past 60 plus years thousands of tanks with fixed roofs with internal covers and floating roofs have been used to store crude oil and middle distillates.
Floating roof tank can be divided into two types internal floating roof and external floating roof.
Flexible sealing system seals the gaps between the tank wall and the outer rim of the roof to protect the liquid from contamination and evaporation roof seal needs to be selected carefully as environment plays a great role in the building of a floating roof tank.
Tank construction was done from september 2008 to october 2009.
