3D TANK ISPECTION API 650/653

3D LASER SCANNER TANK SURVEY

3D Laser Scanner Tank Survey Service Geometric inspection of storage tanks is a critical activity to ensure compliance with international standards and plant safety.
Our service uses state-of-the-art 3D Laser Scanner technology to capture millions of data points quickly and accurately, creating a high-fidelity digital model of the tank.
HOW IT WORKS
Data Acquisition: The 3D Laser Scanner system scans the tank surface, generating a complete and detailed point cloud.
Data Processing:
The collected data is processed using dedicated software to obtain accurate three-dimensional models. Geometric Verification: We compare actual measurements with design specifications and international standards API 650 and API 653, identifying any deformations, ovality, or out-of-tolerance conditions.
API 650/653 Compliance Planimetric and altimetric survey of the tank’s annular portion Verticality check of the shell with measurement of top deviation and each course Ovality control Bottom flatness survey Certified technical report including API tolerances and conclusions
This approach allows targeted maintenance planning, reduces operational risks, and optimizes the tank’s service life.
