Everything you need to know about above ground fuel storage tanks
An above ground fuel storage tank is a great way to ensure that your fuel is stored in a safe and secure manner. These tanks are made from high quality materials and are designed to withstand the elements. They are also bunded, which means that they are surrounded by secondary containment in case of leaks or spills. This makes them ideal for storing fuel safely and securely.
OTS is a leading supplier of above ground, bunded fuel storage tanks for the safe storage of fuels such as diesel (derv), gas oil, bio-diesel, heating oils and other liquids such as Adblue®, leachate, water and non-corrosive chemicals. Our high quality, secure and robust mild-steel bunded fuel storage tanks are manufactured in capacities of up to 150,000 litres.
Bunded fuel tanks are designed to store fuels and oils safely and securely, with a secondary containment system that prevents any leakage or spillage from the tank itself. This makes them an ideal choice for commercial use, providing peace of mind that your fuel is stored in a safe and environmentally friendly way.
OTS Group offers above ground fuel storage solutions made from high-quality materials, ensuring safety and security. Our tanks comply with Control of Pollution Regulations, featuring a 20-year Design Life Expectancy and OFTEC OFS T200 certification. Unlike the BS799 Part 5 2010 standard, which only covers the primary tank, the OFTEC OFS T200 certification includes the bund, providing an enhanced specification.
