What we do

We design, manufacture and erect vertical steel tanks from 100 to 50,000 m³ for crude oil, petroleum products, water, and chemical and food media. We work to GOST 31385-2023, the current standard for RVS tanks.

We take on the whole project: strength and stability calculations, structural (KM) and shop (KMD) drawings, manufacturing at our own facility, delivery, erection and commissioning with a full document package.

Designs

  • RVS — fixed roof, basic design
  • RVSP — fixed roof with a pontoon, reduces evaporation losses
  • RVSPK — floating roof, for light petroleum products
  • With a protective wall — double containment instead of bunding
  • With shell and roof insulation and a product heating system

Several designs are possible for the same volume: RVS-5000 is built with a 22,800 mm diameter at 12,000 mm height, or 20,920 mm at 15,000 mm — the choice depends on the site and the required filling height. Weight is approximate and excludes stairs, platforms and fittings. Exact parameters are determined by the design, taking into account snow and wind loads, seismicity and the stored product.

How we manufacture

Roll-up erection

Shell and bottom sheets are welded together at the plant and coiled into rolls; on site they are unrolled. Faster and cheaper to erect; used for tanks up to roughly 5,000 m³.

Sheet-by-sheet assembly

Plates are installed and welded directly on site. More expensive and slower, but it allows large-volume tanks and gives higher geometric accuracy.

Quality control

We inspect welds by visual and dimensional testing, ultrasonic testing and radiography. The tank is handed over with a passport, steel certificates and records of all inspections — without this package the facility will not be accepted for operation.

What affects the cost

  • Volume and the chosen diameter-to-height ratio
  • Steel grade — depends on the product and site temperatures
  • Roof type: fixed, with pontoon or floating
  • Snow and wind region, site seismicity
  • Thermal insulation, heating, anti-corrosion coating
  • Equipment: manholes, nozzles, level-measuring instruments

Send us the volume, product and region — that is enough for a first calculation.
