The application of FFS standards means that common damage mechanisms such as corrosion, shell bulging, cracking, and edge settlement no longer automatically require costly repairs. FFS methods and advanced engineering analysis make the most of the standard data collected during required inspections. This approach helps define new requirements when additional inspections are necessary.

Service Highlights

Storage Tank Integrity Assessment Solutions

Hydrostatic test exemptions for atmospheric storage tanks following shell and/or floor repairs per API 653 Tank Inspection, Repair, Alteration, and Reconstruction
Analysis of excessive settlement of Aboveground Storage Tanks
FFS, including remaining life predictions, considering a wide range of damage mechanisms
Corrosion damage assessment
Leak-before-break assessment
Assessment of shell deformation damage
Recommendations for maintenance, inspection, and integrity operating windows

Identification of critical areas reduces inspection scope, thereby increasing efficiency and minimizing down time
Tank reliability assessments categorize existing critical flaw sizes as safe or requiring immediate action
Remaining life estimates provide reliable guidance in tank integrity and determine appropriate inspection plans
Hydrostatic test exemptions can save the cost and logistics of water obtainment, proper disposal, and multiple weeks of down time
Edge settlement analysis prevents costly repairs such as tank jacking and floor replacement
