How does it work?

When working with clients on a new fuel distribution depot project, we start by understanding exactly what your requirements will be.

While we have in depth knowledge and experience of designing & installing above ground bulk fuel storage systems for fuel distribution depots we know that each project is unique. That’s why each project is supervised by a dedicated installations manager who will ensure that your brief & installation is delivered on time, and on budget.

 

  • Our job is to understand exactly what you need. Our brief and site survey process considers EA compliance, Health & Safety and client concerns to help to guide you to the right fuel storage solution. From the initial brief and site survey, we produce a detailed proposal that includes CAD drawings of our suggested tank solution & images of recommended equipment.

  • OTS has invested in additional qualified staff and 3D CAD software to enhance our drawing capabilities, from initial site survey and client briefing, we are able to produce 3D conceptual designs that allow a clear understanding of how the fuelling facility looks and the impact on the available space. Our full “turn-key” solution includes Planning Applications as part of the design & planning process.

  • In addition to the manufacture of bunded steel tanks in our Gloucestershire factory, OTS’ full “turn-key” solution ensures that any Civil and Electrical Works required to prep the site are covered.

    All OTS tanks are designed and built to accord with the Control of Pollution Regulations which require a Design Life Expectancy of 20 years, and OFTEC OFS T200. OTS provide Conformity Certificates as standard practice.

  • We are tank delivery and installation specialists. When it’s time for installation we work hard to ensure optimal delivery and and installation of the tank, pipework and associated equipment, even in some of the most challenging of environments.

  • At OTS, we pride ourselves on service, and we know that a successful delivery isn’t just a ‘set & forget’ affair. That’s why we started TankCare™, an affiliate organisation that deals with all your fuel care and maintenance requirements. We are here to help, from initial installation through 20+ years of operation, to decommission and replacement when the time comes.
