STEEL
STORAGE TANKS
WELDMETCON company offers vertical and horizontal steel storage tanks
These are above-ground steel vertical hermetic cylindrical vessels of different heights and diameters, designed for receiving, storing and dispensing various liquids (water, liquid food or aggressive chemical products, mineral fertilizers, oil products).
Large volumes of product are stored in vertical steel tanks: from 100m³ to 100,000m³.
Structurally, such a tank consists of a shell, bottom, roof, hatches, branch pipes and auxiliary structures: stairs, service platforms, etc.
The construction process consists of several stages:
1) Design. The vertical tank is a bespoke building structure, so it all starts with a design. We prepare for our customers a complete package of design documentation with KIWA approval. With each tank you will receive calculation results and detailed drawings for subsequent installation.
2) Fabrication of the tanks metal structures. This process consists of:
3) Installation. At the construction site, the bottom, wall and roof of the tank are welded from prepared sheets. Next, hatches, pipes and auxiliary structures are mounted. Then the anti-corrosion treatment measures are carried out.
You can order all these services from our company.

2) Fabrication of the tanks metal structures. This process consists of:
- Preparation of metal sheets, including processing of edges for welding
- Bending of metal sheets of the shell to the design radius
- Manufacture of manholes and branch pipes
- Welding of auxiliary structures in the most shop-ready form, taking into account the possibility of transportation
- Packaging for delivery to the construction site

Horizontal steel tanks are widely used for receiving, storing and issuing light and dark oil products, drinking, fire, technical water, oils and lubricants, alcohols, liquid mineral fertilizers, food raw materials and other liquid non-aggressive products.
The production of horizontal tanks is the assembly of the hull from belts (shells). Each shell is made from sheet steel. To give it a cylindrical shape the bending rollers are used. The bottoms are made of one or more petals welded together. Conical bottoms require shaping on bending rolls. The shells are welded together. The bottoms are welded to the shell.
Next, the tank is painted inside and outside.
This equipment provides for above-ground or underground installation in dry and wet soils.
Depending on the requirements of the customer, the tank can be single-walled and double-walled and have a volume from 1 to 200 m3. It can be equipped with service platforms, ladders, additional fittings, etc.
In practice, in the manufacture of horizontal tanks, the wishes of the Customer regarding specific dimensions are taken into account, because the conditions at the construction site may be different. So, for example, if the area is insufficient, it is possible to manufacture a tank that is more compact in length, the volume of which will be compensated by the diameter of the shell.
