Spill Containment Testing
Vacuum or Volumetric Testing of Spill Buckets
Spill containment buckets are designed to prevent petroleum products from being released into the environment in the event of a spill or overfill. Over time, exposure to fuel and weather can cause containment buckets to deteriorate and become a source of leaks which are often overlooked. Recognizing this possibility, several oil companies now require annual testing of spill containment buckets. According to the requirement, the spill containment bucket must be capable of containing the stored substance until it is detected and cleaned up so that contaminants do not migrate into soils or drinking water.
Innovative
Tanknology has developed an innovative test that verifies that the spill containment buckets continue to perform according to manufacturer specifications and are able to prevent the release of product into the environment. Utilizing Tanknology’s exclusive testing technology provides extremely accurate results at a low cost and without the generation of hazardous waste. Other test methods generate waste by-products that require special handling, resulting in higher test costs. The superior accuracy of Tanknology’s testing technology allows for detection of even the smallest leaks in the spill containment bucket that could be missed by other testing technologies.
Results
You can have your spill containers tested while Vacutect tank tests are carried out. No need for a second site visit, extra mobilization fees and site disturbance. You can have all your tests completed within a day and receive a detailed report in perfect accuracy about all components of your underground piping and tank systems.
