Storage Tanks:

 

Structural Members, Foundations, Shell Courses, Roofs, Drains, Valves and Piping are examined.

API 653 certified inspectors use visual and nondestructive

test methods to locate and evaluate defects and 

discontinuities. They also perform vacuum box testing of floor / corner welds for leaks and perform magnetic flux leakage examination of floor plates for underside corrosion. Elevation surveys are performed to evaluate the extent of settlement. The results of these inspections are used in the engineering evaluations.
