Designed and built to meet the highest industry standards
At CTS®, we ensure that our storage tank solutions are designed and built to meet the highest industry standards. Wide applied codes as API 650 governs the design and construction of most atmospheric storage tanks, whereas API 653 sets guidelines in regards to maintenance.
These two codes cover a lot of ground, but do not cover everything. Which means that there are also other codes that need to be consulted. As international and national codes can overlap, one or the other can prescribe stricter directives. Proper understanding of these codes and their evolution throughout the years is there for essential, as revisions may introduce new compliance requirements for existing tanks.
