Heating Oil Storage Tanks
This 312 page comprehensive manual addresses many of the concerns and issues surrounding the installation, maintenance and replacement of fuel oil tanks. This manual discusses: tank failures, codes and regulations, installation procedure, oil lines and valves, filtration, inspection and maintenance, abandonment and the manual conveniently includes service guides. Following manufactures' installation and maintenance instructions and NFPA regulations, this book is a must have reference guide.
Above-ground Proprietary Prefabricated Oil Storage Tank Systems
In 2000 there were 6215 substantiated pollution incidents involving oil, a 15 per cent increase on the number of incidents in 1999. Environment Agency data indicate that that a large number of these could have been prevented if the oil had been stored in adequately bunded tank systems. This report provides detailed guidance on the design, construction and use of proprietary prefabricated above-ground bunded oil storage tank systems for use in domestic, agricultural and industrial applications. Oil storage tank systems of steel or plastic construction up to 140,000 litres are reviewed and the use of mobile oil storage bowsers is also included. This report assesses the level of environmental protection offered by these types of systems against common causes of oil pollution and the preventative measures that can be taken to avoid them. It offers good practice recommendations, which are designed to minimise the risk of oil pollution.

Construction of Bunds for Oil Storage Tanks
This book gives the background to the problem and guides the user to the most appropriate bund capacity, shape, dimensions and structural design.
Evaluation of Design Criteria for Oil Storage Tanks with Frangible Roof Joints
Describes research that evaluated the ability of the present design criteria (API 650) to ensure the desired frangible joint behavior. Particular questions include: evaluation of the area inequality as a method to predict the buckling response of the compression ring; effect of roof slope, tank diameter, and weld size on the frangible joint; effect of the relative strength of the roof-to-shell joint compared to the shell-to-bottom joint. Charts, tables, graphs and photos. References.

Handbook of Storage Tank Systems
A survey of manufacturing and installation methods, standards, and specifications of factory-made steel storage tanks and appurtenances for petroleum, chemicals, hydrocarbons, and other flammable or combustible liquids. It chronicles the trends towards aboveground storage tanks, secondary containment, and corrosion-resistant underground steel storage systems.
