DID YOU KNOW? .... that many owners of assets have solved their headache of tank inspections?
Tank inspections
Major chore
Lots of planning
HSE issues
Have to air out tanks to ensure no toxic gases
Have to get scaffolding in key areas or do risky rope access and send personnel into tank
Oops, completely forgot, the tanks are dark as well.
Got to get lighting in place
Depending on the size of these tanks, this could easily take up to 2 days per tank inspection
Don't forget the heat in many places. It's hot, dirty, challenging work
We could go on but you get the point and you have faced and continue to face many of these challenges today!
Many owners today utilize specialized equipment to get these tank inspections done WITHOUT SENDING A SINGLE PERSON into the tank.
The result of this specialized inspection is in the form of high resolution digital images with the quality of the inspection being BETTER than if a human had gone down and the other beauty is that the tank can now be "virtually" reentered any number of times to doublecheck anything or plan the thickness gauging to evaluate corrosion.
Aha!, you think, I still have to send personnel into the tank to do the thickness gauging.
Surprise! You don't
Drum roll.......
These specialized tools can even do the thickness gauging in the tanks without the need for personnel to enter the tank!
So, there you have it.....
NOW, YOU KNOW
