1.Oil storage Companies extracting oil and gas, storage and transportation put on a par with processing. These are important components of the whole process.
Warehousing is the content of the reserve in conditions that can ensure the quality preservation of the fossil without leakage over a long period of time.
If necessary, compensation for uneven consumption may be considered. Also, the manufacturer provides for the possibility of operational and economic reservation of products.
2.Parallel processes occurring during the storage of oil. It happens that the storage operation can take place in parallel with other technological processes:
• heating oil products;
• Removal of salts;
• oil drying (dehydration);
• mixing.
It is stored in containers that are resistant to aggressive environments. As a rule, storage is provided by the company-producer in the oil field or transit station. There are warehouses at the main oil pipelines, near the raw materials bases.
Often, oil and petroleum products are stored in special parks of relevant factories and on food bases.
3.Tank Farms
Reservoir parks in the oil industry are used widely enough. They are a real complex of all kinds of containers intended for storage of various types of raw materials, combined in food groups.
The main purpose of such structures is the convenience of accounting and storage of hydrocarbon raw materials. Developments meet modern production requirements for application, international quality standards.
The presence of a reserve quantity of a fossil ensures uninterrupted performance of technological operations of the entire oil refining complex.
The operation of reservoir parks directly depends on the decision of the organization to be completely independent or decisions about share participation and cooperation with other areas of the industry. So, one facility can combine work with oil refineries, transit stations, etc.
All parks and storage tanks for resources are divided into specific groups depending on the functional activities.
