Petroleum tanks - Import export

A pressure vessel is defined as a container with a pressure differential between inside and outside. The inside pressure is usually higher than the outside, except for some isolated situations. The fluid inside the vessel may undergo a change in state as in the case of steam boilers, or may combine with other reagents as in the case of a chemical reactor. Pressure vessels often have a combination of high pressures together with high temperatures, and in some cases flammable fluids or highly radioactive materials. Pressure vessels are used in a number of industries; for example, the power generation industry for fossil and nuclear power, the petrochemical industry for storing and processing crude petroleum oil in tank farms as well as storing gasoline in service stations, and the chemical industry (in chemical reactors) to name but a few.

A 2500-ton horizontal bitumen tank is a huge specially built storage facility designed to store and handle vast quantities of bitumen, a thick and tacky material refined from petroleum. These are special tanks designed with a horizontal axis so that it becomes possible to store, heat, and transfer the bitumen in question. Constructed with quality raw material—steel that guarantees strength in storage for highly demanding bitumen-based material products, thus securing their stability during storage and transportation. The 2500-ton horizontal bitumen tank is used in a number of industries for safe storage to consumers of vast volumes of bitumen. It is designed to maintain bitumen in a workable state such that it is in readiness for use directly in any of the industrial applications, be it in road construction, manufacture of asphalt, or any other waterproofing work.
