How does rust form on the handrails/fences in tank areas?

2017-06-14View Original

Thread Content

The handrails/fences on the tops of the oil tanks in the tank area are severely corroded, and some of the fences have fallen off. Current safety regulations require that no welding work be carried out on these tanks while they contain oil. What suggestions do you all have for dealing with this situation?

Maintenance can only be carried out when there is no oil; working with an empty tank is even more dangerous, so it must be filled with water.

This indicates that anti-corrosion measures were not carried out on schedule, resulting in severe rusting

The type of paint to be used is selected based on the local climate conditions, choosing a paint that is resistant to acids.

Let’s reinforce it temporarily; working on the tank involves significant risks.
