Maintenance & Repair Storage Tanks

NAWA has been maintaining and repairing above ground, welded steel tanks. We provide maintenance and repair services to the petrochemical, biofuel, agriculture, and power markets From a single small repair to multiyear maintenance agreements, we can service your company’s needs.

 

REPLACEMENT SERVICES

NAWA regularly performs tank seal replacements. Optimally, we perform seal replacements when a tank is out-of-service. This is done for several reasons. First, in-service repairs are much higher risk because seals are installed on tanks which put off LEL’s, H2S, Benzene, and other dangerous vapors. Second, seal replacements take an extended period of time; consequently there is an increase in vapor exposure both to the environment and to our employees if still in service. Third, most seals cannot be replaced in-service because they require some sort of hot work to correctly install and tank fasteners that are often located in the product.

Floating Roof Repair

It is essential to have tanks that can be used to store varying products. We can take your cone roof tank and modify it to a floating roof for your changing work environment.

Today’s regulatory environment requires tank owners to evaluate emissions coming from their storage tanks. If it is determined that a tank needs to have emission reduction modifications made, NAWA can help. The solution may be as simple as adding a Geodesic dome, but if more dramatic reductions are required our team of engineers, project managers, and experienced craft can install a floating roof.
