Sludge Management

Technology at Work​

We offer equipment and services for sludge removal, tank cleaning and sludge treatment.
The innovative technology that is used for tank cleaning of both fixed and floating roof tanks.

The unique Sludge Profiler for Oil Tank (SPOT) is a revolutionary patented technology designed to provide real-time, high resolution quantitative data on the volume of sludge within the client crude oil tanks. SPOT relies on patented Solar technology and Nitrogen purged system that is ATEX certified and INTRINSICALLY SAFE. SPOT utilizes robotic technology to measure the quantitative volume from sludge-oil interface to tank bottom. SPOT is designed for external floating roof.
For internal floating roof (IFR) type of tanks, the safest option to measure the shell sludge levels is using thermography. The topographic survey is designed to accurately locate and quantify sludge accumulations contained in crude oil storage tanks. By identifying the location and height of sludge banks, maintenance programs can be prioritised, stock control can be improved, and representative samples can be taken. The topographic survey reduces the potential risk associated with landing a floating roof when large sludge banks are present, Mastir cannon and mixer patterns can also be monitored by surveying on a regular basis.
