Scope

A bulk liquid storage installation is defined,for the purpose of this publication,as the total fixed assembly of liquid storage tank(s) integrated with other equipment,such as pumps,filling equipment,pressure buildup vaporizers,controls and other related ancillary equipment that are connected to it. This publication specifically covers storage installations on production sites where the storage tank is flat bottomed constructed and is connected to the production process plant and the individual tank capacity exceeds 125 000 L. For storage installations made with vacuum-insulated tanks or cluster tanks or where the tanks have an individual capacity less than 125 000 L it is an individual company or storage system owner's decision to use the present publication as a guide for the general requirements of the installation.
