DT ROBOTIC INSPECTION SERVICES that are designed to perform ultrasonic-thickness (U/T) testing on the floors of Fuel Storage Tanks (e.g., JP-8 jet fuel, Diesel, etc.) while they remain FULL (No draining) and In-Service.
Our process includes using our REMOTE OPERATED VEHICLES (ROVs) to perform an internal survey of your tank or water containment system to evaluate the metal integrity of the tank floor using NDT methods and determine whether sedimentation and sludge cleaning are required.
The inspection survey is specifically designed to video your tank while it remains in service (Full with NO Draining Required).
The survey will provide feedback on the tank’s interior coating, roof, and all the internal structural items (e.g., ladders, influent/effluent piping, over-flow, drains) to evaluate any corrosion as well as identify the level of sedimentation that has accumulated on the tank floor.
SAFE Our service teams are trained to utilize our ROVs to deliver high-quality inspections and cleaning services in confined areas and conditions that are unsuitable for man.
EFFICIENT Our uniquely designed machines allow us to perform inspection and cleaning services while your storage containment remains completely operational.
API INSPECTIONS AND NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING
We provide assistance with a comprehensive mechanical integrity plan to protect your equipment. Our team of API-certified inspectors and support personnel will inspect your pressure vessels, tanks, and associated piping and provide detailed reports and recommendations for your review.
STEEL TANK INSTITUTE (STI) INSPECTIONS
One of our Certified Inspectors will provide a thorough inspection based on the criteria identified by The Steel Tank Institute (STI) Standard for the Inspection of Aboveground Storage Tanks, SP001, in order to determine the suitability for continued service of aboveground storage tanks (AST) until the next scheduled inspection.
VISUAL INSPECTIONS
A complete visual inspection allows our team to verify the condition of each piece of equipment. Areas inspected include the foundation, anchoring, protective coating, vibration, and signs of external corrosion.
