Sludge profiler of crude oil tank (S.P.O.T)

Sludge profiler of crude oil tank (S.P.O.T)

This technology has been used to conduct over 400 surveys worldwild providing customers with accurate sludge volumes and profiling in Crude Oil tanks.

A NITROGEN purged that is ATEX Certfied and intrinsically safe. The transducer robotically rotates through 360 degrees, sweeping the surface of the sludge with up to 240,000 soundings. The Sonar beam has a range of around 30 meters. Processed acoustic echoes produce an accurate profile of sludge/oil inteface.

ADVANTAGES
  • Eliminates major problem of manually quantifying volumes of Sludge in crude oil tanks.
  • Determines the volume of Sludge and it's exact location/contour within a crude oil tank.
  • Saves tremendous time amd money in scheduling and budgetng for tank cleaning and maintenace.
  • Accurately monitor the loss of storage volume due to buildup of sludge for capacity accounting.
  • Can be used in monitoring mixer running patterns in crude oil tank
  • Can be used to assess roof landing safety
  • ATEX CERTIFIED AND INTRINSICALLY SAFE
