Eurotank is coming to the end of a challenging project to install the Fastliner bladder lining system without entering the tanks.
Three of the seven tanks to be lined were 60,000 litres, which required an alteration to the usual installation procedure.
Eddie Fataciune, Head of Operations at Eurotank Environmental, said: “Tanks of that size make the installation of Fastliner a bit more challenging, particularly if the tank manway is in the middle.
“We have a great partnership with our liner supplier, and worked closely with them to develop a new way to install the liners.”
Fastliner is manufactured offsite in factory conditions to the exact measurements of the tank, which is established by Eurotank via laser calibration.
When the tank lining system is to be installed unmanned without anyone entering the tank, the tanks are cleaned and degassed remotely using one of Eurotank’s tank cleaning robots.
