EOG Resources’ 1Q 2024 earnings presentation outlines their Package Development strategy that impacts facility design and tank selection
Permian Resources focuses on reducing GHG emissions intensity through the optimization of facility designs. This includes the elimination of routine flaring and improvements in facility designs that enhance environmental performance.
In the Permian Basin, the most common sizes for storage tanks, especially for oil production, tend to be in the range of 500 to 1,000 barrels (BBL). This is due to the typical volume of production and the need for efficient storage and transportation logistics.
It is important that Operators have effective monitoring and maintenance of API 12F tanks involve regular inspections and remote monitoring to detect settlement and alignment issues, alongside continuous instrumentation checks and automation systems for early issue detection.
Sentinel Manufacturing, a well-known name in the industrial sector, has recently rebranded its industry-leading tank pads to “DuraBull.”
API 12F emphasizes the importance of proper foundation design and construction to ensure the stability of the tank and minimize settlement.
While a tank pad alone may not eliminate settlement entirely, it is an important component of a well-designed tank foundation system.
To install an API 12F tank at an oil battery, first prepare the site and foundation, then position and secure the tank. Connect all necessary piping, fittings, and instrumentation, and conduct thorough testing for leaks and functionality. Finally, perform regular maintenance and monitoring to ensure ongoing safety and efficiency.
The information below is a list API 12F tank manufactures that service the oil & gas industry in the Permian Basin,
