Qualified Tank Inspectors
We know that our clients need more than equipment inspections; they need full condition assessments for their fixed assets. These assessments give proprietors the resources to schedule future shutdowns at optimal times, plan future inspections, and budget for any necessary repairs. Our trained, licensed, and certified inspectors can assist clients with their tanks, pressure vessels, piping systems, and other related equipment. We employ certified STI and API inspectors, CWI technicians, professional engineers, and certified NDT technicians who can address all our clients’ needs.
Tank Inspection Plans
Establishing a routine tank inspection plan can streamline the inspection and maintenance processes while promoting a safe setting for personnel and the surrounding environment. Our inspection plans help decrease the risk of unexpected failures by detecting mechanical damage, corrosion, cracking, and other potential issues early. ATS engineers can develop repair plans that detail the precise scope of necessary work for a client’s equipment. We take every possible step to maximize the value of our inspections while minimizing costs and downtime.
Our Mechanical Integrity Services
ATS creates and evaluates mechanical integrity programs, utilizing process safety management (PSM) to monitor fixed asset conditions. Our programs address several points for both aboveground and underground tanks:
- Program management/ownership
- Inspection methods/frequencies
- Jurisdictional regulations
