Design, inspect and safeguard your storage tanks with technical precision.
This intensive 5-day programme delivers expert-level training on above-ground and underground storage tanks used for petroleum, chemicals and water treatment. You’ll explore design codes, mechanical detailing, construction practices, inspection techniques, corrosion mitigation, containment strategies and compliance—all augmented with hands-on calculations, real-world case studies, and inspection simulations.
Why this course is important
-
Life-critical infrastructure: Tank failures can have catastrophic safety, environmental and financial consequences. Understanding design and inspection is essential for prevention.
-
Evolving standards: Engineers must keep pace with codes such as API 650/653, EN 14015, and ASME RTP‑1 to ensure compliance and structural integrity.
-
Operational sustainability: Effective maintenance and corrosion control strategies prolong tank life, reduce downtime, and minimise environmental risk.
Who should attend
-
Mechanical, process and inspection engineers responsible for tank design, maintenance, or regulatory compliance
-
Construction supervisors, site supervisors and welding leads involved in tank erection and fabrication
-
HSE, quality and risk professionals overseeing storage facilities in oil & gas, chemicals, utilities, or water treatment
-
Technical consultants and auditors conducting structural assessments, failure analysis or inspection planning
What you will learn
Across five intensive days, you will:
-
Understand design fundamentals – Learn codes (API 650/620, 653, EN 14015, ASME RTP‑1) and mechanical detailing of tanks
-
Analyse structural integrity – Perform load calculations, wall thickness, foundation design, and secondary containment sizing
-
Master construction practices – Dive into welding standards, NDE methods, material selection and quality-control during erection
-
Implement corrosion & failure prevention – Techniques for cathodic protection, floating roofs, coatings, leak detection and venting
-
Conduct effective inspections – Apply API 653 inspection intervals, ultrasonic, visual and thickness measurement methods
-
Plan maintenance regimes – Schedule cleaning, repair methods, bund integrity and inspection for continued safety
-
Review real-world failures – Examine case studies like historical structural collapses to learn from failures
-
Simulate inspection & risk scenarios – Role-play underwater inspections, weld assessments and audit preparedness
