Cleaning crude oil tanks in Rabigh

If you are looking for a specialized company in cleaning crude oil tanks in Rabigh, we clean crude oil tanks in the city of Rabigh with full commitment to safety.

What is crude oil tank cleaning in Rabigh and when does a tank need cleaning?

This process aims to improve the operational quality of the tank. Over time, sediments from heavy oil form at the bottom of the tank. These sediments are very heavy and can damage engines that run on heavy oil, such as those in cement factories and some power companies.

Factories resort to cleaning these tanks when sediments build up significantly on the bottom and walls of the tanks.

Importance of cleaning crude oil tanks in Rabigh

Crude oil tanks are cleaned to prevent damage to factories, whether they are operational factories or refineries like Petro Rabigh and cement plants.

Cost of cleaning crude oil tanks

Compared to the damage to the operational movement of the tanks, the cost is low and varies based on many factors, the most important being the size of the tank, the amount of sediment inside the tank, and whether the tank roof is floating or fixed.

A practical case study of cleaning a crude oil tank in Rabigh belonging to one of the factories.

Tank diameter: 30 m
Tank height: 14 m
Volume of sediment inside the tank: 706 m3 (1 meter high from the bottom of the tank)
Tank roof: Floating roof with free movement up and down

Scope of work required for this project:

Withdrawing the sediments and petroleum impurities present in the tank and disposing of them in a chemical waste landfill, cleaning the tank floor and tank walls with suitable chemical materials, and safely disposing of the cleaning waste according to the specifications of the National Center for Hazardous Waste Management.
