Water Storage Tank Frequently Asked Questions for Oilfields
Q: What makes oilfield water storage different from regular water storage?
A: Oilfield waters contain corrosive elements, hydrocarbons, and chemicals requiring specialized materials, coatings, and design features not needed for standard water storage.
Q: How do you handle produced water with high salt content?
A: We use corrosion-resistant alloys, specialized coatings, cathodic protection, and design features that accommodate the corrosive nature of high-salinity produced water.
Q: What sizes are available for oilfield water storage tanks?
A: Our oilfield water storage tanks range from 100 barrels for small operations to over 10,000 barrels for major facilities, with custom sizes available.
Q: How do you prevent environmental contamination?
A: We provide secondary containment, leak detection systems, proper tank coatings, and design features that comply with environmental regulations for oilfield operations.
Q: Can tanks be relocated between oilfield sites?
A: Yes, we offer modular and transportable tank designs specifically for oilfield operations that require
mobility between different well sites and locations.
