A system integrity test should be conducted as part of a planned preventative maintenance programme to assess any potential threats that your fuel storage tank and its components may have.
STORAGE TANK INTEGRITY TEST
LSM International is your certified partner for carrying out tank integrity testing. We have highly skilled testing technicians equipped with modern equipment dedicated to provide you with reliable inspections at highly affordable rates.
Fuel tank integrity testing is crucial in any industries where fuel storage and transportation are involved. Fuel tank testing aims to ensure that the tanks are free from leaks or structural defects that could lead to fuel leakage, environmental hazards, safety risks, or inefficiencies in fuel consumption.
SUCTION LINE INTEGRITY TEST
Fuel suction line integrity test verifies that the fuel suction line is free from leaks and can withstand the required fuel pressure, ensuring reliable fuel delivery to the engine.
Importance of Integrity Testing
Compliance with Regulations: Petroleum industry has specific fuel tank integrity regulations and standards. By availing of our tank testing and inspection services, you can ensure compliance with these regulations and avoid penalties or legal consequences.
Safety Assurance: We help to ensure integrity of your fuel storage tanks which is essential for your asset and personnel safety by minimising the risk of fuel leakage, fires, explosions, or other hazardous incidents.
Environmental Protection: Integrity tests helps to identify potential leaks that can lead to contaminate soil, groundwater, and surface water, posing significant environmental risks. Detecting and repairing leaks through integrity testing can reduce or eliminate the potential for fuel spills and environmental pollution.
How it's done:
Pressure Testing: A pressure test involves pressurizing the fuel suction line with a controlled amount of air or fuel and monitoring for any pressure drop, which would indicate a leak.
Visual Inspection: Inspect the fuel suction line for any signs of damage, such as cracks, leaks, or corrosion.
