Cisterns
Clean oil tanks before inspection
Much of the industry still relies on antiquated and outdated methods of cleaning oil tanks.
It is the person who owns the cistern who is responsible for its safe operation. This includes ensuring that none of the content leaks into nature. It is also the owner who is responsible for the mandatory cistern inspection being carried out by a third party.
The authority for public protection and preparedness, the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency and the Swedish Work Environment Agency all have regulations that regulate the inspection of cisterns.

Steam cleaning before cistern inspection
It's that simple: step one is to get all the oil slag out of the cistern. The next step is cleaning. A mobile container is set up on the outside of the cistern, containing a heat exchanger and pump system. Hot water steam heats solidified oil residues, whereupon they are pumped out and then the tank walls are cleaned with only water.
