Off-stream internal inspections are typically every 10 years, while on-stream external inspections may be every 5 years.
ing to API 653, the intervals of storage tank inspection are detailed below: In-service tanks that have been in service for less than 10 years should be inspected every 5 years. In-service tanks that have been in service for 10 years or more should be inspected every 3 years.
Check fittings, hoses, gaskets, and all connections for any signs of general corrosion or deterioration and leaks. Check the vents and scrubber piping and make sure they are functioning properly. Ensure that the end of the scrubber piping is never submerged in more than 6 inches of liquid.
For outdoor storage, OSHA recommends that containers not exceed 1,100 gallons in any one pile or area. A 5-foot clearance should separate piles or groups of containers and keep them at least 20 feet away from buildings. Above-ground fuel tanks are commonly used for outdoor fuel storage.
Regular inspections help prevent and mitigate damage and leaks and can increase the life span of your ASTs. Additionally, your Tank Arrangement Plan (TAP) for your aboveground storage tanks should be inspected and reassessed at least every five years.
