TankField Tent
خيمة مجمع الخزانات
A single multi-peak net over a group of tanks.
Status: Development concept — subject to study and testing
Image 1 — Multi-peak tent over six tanks (conceptual)
Overview
The concept
Instead of a separate canopy for each tank, one multi-peak net covers a whole group, supported by masts in the spaces between tanks and around the bund, so pipes and pumps between tanks are covered too.
Proposed purpose
To study covering storage groups with fewer masts per tank.

Introductory details
Applications, components and considerations
Potential applications
■ Fuel tank farms
■ Storage depots at refineries and ports
■ Pump areas between tanks
Components (overview level)
■ Large net panels
■ Tubular steel peak masts
■ Galvanised perimeter masts
■ Modular net walls
■ Top access panels over each tank
Integration & maintenance
■ Design that keeps foam and cooling systems effective
■ Foundations that do not breach the bund liner
■ Phased installation
■ Periodic tension checks and after storms
Note: Images and models are conceptual visualisations for presentation and development purposes. Any actual application is subject to engineering study, testing and the required approvals.
Discuss this concept for your project
The concept serves as a starting point for discussion; the suitable solution is defined after a site study, testing and the necessary approvals.
