The size of the tank is determined by the design requirements of pipeline and refinery customers.

• Floating roofs on storage tanks are made with primary and secondary seals to contain vapors. These seals are located near the surface of the oil and reduce emissions as well as risk of ignition.

• State-of-the-art systems ranging from radar that tracks tank levels to mixers are used to maintain product integrity during breakout storage.
