Tank Inspection and Repair Services
The world of storage inspection and maintenance is constantly evolving as process needs change and new requirements develop. CST’s expert services team can help you keep your assets in peak operating condition, so you can stay focused on profitably and safely operating your business.
CST Master Service Agreements are highly customizable roadmaps for annual tank maintenance, planning and budgeting among all alternatives including local engineering consultants. CST offers specific detailed solutions tailored to customer needs around safety, reliability and total life cycle costs. We offer long term, permanent solutions, not band-aids.
CST’s Tank Inspection & Repair MSA will provide the industry expertise and resources needed to assess and prioritize all your storage assets. If you have 20 tanks or 100 tanks — and don’t know where to start — CST can offer an initial assessment to prioritize and rank them according to condition and operations considerations, then provide you a roadmap for future inspection, maintenance and repair. Let us do the heavy lifting and give you tools to better plan and manage your budget.
CST’s Visual Inspections are conducted from ground level, access ladders/platforms and other equipment as required to access areas of the tank. Our Certified Inspectors will evaluate the overall functionality as well as any specific areas of concern. Tanks will be evaluated against 15-20 critical areas.
