217 Safe and effective operation of storage tanks
This publication provides guidance which aims to raise awareness of process safety, particularly in oil movements. It looks beyond the extensive existing standards and procedures, focusing on areas in which higher risk in oil movements exist. It covers oil movements in refineries, terminals and storage depots, and includes liquids stored under atmospheric pressure and LPG stored under pressure or under refrigerated and cryogenic conditions.

213 Emission reduction from oil storage tanks and loading operations
The prevention and control of emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from storage tanks containing oil or chemical feedstocks or products is addressed by this new EEMUA Publication. Emission reduction has become of primary importance, not only for economic reasons but increasingly to minimize the impact on the environment. The Publication begins by introducing the main theory on how emissions can be minimised by focusing on the source of emissions. It then guides tank owners and operators, manufacturers, designers and specifiers to the most suitable tank type for particular feedstocks based on the true vapour pressure (TVP) of products. Background theories on possible solutions to prevent or reduce emissions are provided. Guidelines are also given on the treatment of the escaping vapours when the achieved level of emissions does not match the intended level or statutory requirements.

207 Double concrete tanks for liquefied gas – guide to design, construction and operation
This pioneering Guide draws together good and best practices for the engineering of double-walled concrete tanks (with or without metal liner) intended for the bulk storage of refrigerated gas liquids. A wealth of technical information is included in the Guide – technical content supported by years of experience gained by the authors in building and operating similar structures. Following the Guide should therefore reduce the risk of mistakes and poor practice during design, construction and commissioning. The Publication should resolve many of the technical issues encountered during double concrete tank projects, thus reducing the need for ‘technical debate’ and improving project timescales, costs and quality. Similarly, it should provide the engineering contractor with detailed information that will minimise the risk of obtaining varying quotations from tank constructors; it benefits the tank designer by giving them a clear basis for their calculations; and it informs tank construction companies of the quality of testing and examination required for materials, construction methods and tank structure.

190 Guide for the Design, Construction and Use of Mounded Horizontal Cylindrical Steel Vessels for Pressurised Storage of LPG at Ambient Temperatures
This guide addresses the design, installation, in-service inspection, and maintenance of mounded vessels for pressure storage of LPG. Mounded storage is generally safer than other methods of storing LPG, but the vessels, supported as they are on compacted soil foundations, are more liable to be affected by soil settlement than conventionally supported vessels. The guide therefore includes soil investigation and foundation design, in addition to considerations of pressure containment.

183: Prevention of tank bottom leakage - a guide for the design and repair of foundations and bottoms of vertical, cylindrical, steel storage tanks
Leakage from storage tanks may lead to extensive environmental pollution and be a financial loss to owners. This guide addresses the problem of tank leakage caused by loss of integrity. Such loss is almost always caused by deterioration of the tank bottom, which itself may be caused by corrosion or by deterioration of the foundation. This second edition is a comprehensive update that takes account of changes in standards, regulations and improvements in technology. The Publication gives guidance on a range of topics affecting tank bottom integrity including: types of tank foundations and bottoms; causes of tank bottom leakage; inspection records and techniques; corrosion protection; leak detection systems; and membranes as soil barriers.

180 Frangible Roof Joints for Fixed Roof Storage Tanks: Guide for Designers and Users
Under abnormal operating conditions, vertical fixed roof storage tanks may experience rapid increases in vapour pressure which overwhelm venting devices and lead to tank failure. This publication gives guidance to designers and users of such tanks on the practical steps that can be taken in design, operation and maintenance to predispose the roof-to-shell joint to fail in preference to the shell-to-bottom joint, thereby ensuring retention of the tank's contents. Such relatively weak roof-to-shell joints are known as 'frangible roof joints'.

159 Users' Guide to the Inspection, Maintenance and Repair of Above ground Vertical Cylindrical Steel Storage Tanks
This users' guide is considered to be the most comprehensive available on storage tank inspection, maintenance and repair. It offers guidance on the inspection and maintenance of tanks built to BS or API standards for the storage of petroleum and chemical feedstocks and products and refrigerated gases. Key features for planning and executing inspection, maintenance and repair works on above ground vertical cylindrical steel storage tanks are set out. The publication covers description of the key tank components that require inspection and maintenance, degradation mechanisms and common inspection techniques, together with a description of the probabilistic (risk- and reliability-based) preventative mechanism concept. This latest third edition includes details on hydrotesting, repair and re-siting of tanks.

154 Guidance to Owners on Demolition of Vertical Cylindrical Steel Storage Tanks and Storage Spheres
The publication covers the demolition of tanks built to BS 2654, API 650, or similar; of refrigerated tanks to BS 7777, API 620, or similar and of (LPG or ammonia) column-supported storage spheres built to recognised pressure vessel codes such as BS PD 5500 and ASME VIII. Reference is also made in the text to UK statutory requirements governing such demolition work. The publication is well illustrated with diagrams and photographs.
