Our Inspection Procedure

For diagnosing and repairing potential faults, our procedure for diesel tank inspection comprises these steps:

Visit your property.
Discuss your requirements.
Conduct a visual inspection of the tank’s external and internal surfaces to identify signs of corrosion, deterioration, or other damage.
Perform various tests, such as dye penetrant testing, magnetic particle testing, radiographic testing, and ultrasonic testing, to assess the tank components’ structural integrity.
Measure the thickness of the steel plates of the tank to detect any issue of corrosion or thinning.
Inspect the welds to check and defects or discontinuities that could be damaging to the tank’s structural integrity.
Examine the tank’s foundations and supporting structures for ensuring the stability and preventing potential failures.
Evaluate the tank’s fitness for its intended purpose of use based on different factors, including environmental factors, operating conditions, and regulatory requirements.

We guarantee to complete all the work with minimum disruptions. Our experts inspect the tank and fuel pipework thoroughly, clean and decommission the tank safely and securely.
