Fuel Tank Leak Detection

A fuel tank that is leaking poses a huge safety hazard that must be dealt with urgently. If you suspect your fuel tank is leaking do not hesitate and contact us straight away; we will aim to get an engineer to you as soon as possible.

Early detection of fuel tank leaks is crucial to prevent damage to the environment, and equipment and to stop the fuel from becoming contaminated. At BMS, we offer dependable and efficient solutions to detect fuel leaks promptly and offer reliable solutions to mitigate the problem.

There are several methods of fuel tank leak detection:

– electronic monitoring systems,

– visual inspections,

– ultrasonic testing.

Each of these methods has its own advantages and disadvantages, and we can help you determine the best approach for your specific needs.

Electronic monitoring systems,

Electronic monitoring systems are the most common method of fuel tank leak detection, providing continuous monitoring of your fuel tanks, and immediate notification of any leaks that may occur. The sensors are placed at various points on the tank and underground pipes can detect changes in pressure, temperature, and fluid levels, indicating the presence of a leak. The system then sends an alert to the facility’s control centre, allowing staff to respond quickly and prevent further damage.

Visual inspections,

We also offer visual inspections, which involve sending an engineer to inspect the tanks, pipelines, and surrounding areas. Although effective in detecting leaks, this method requires more time and resources than electronic monitoring systems and is not as reliable in detecting small leaks.

Ultrasonic testing.

Ultrasonic testing is a non-destructive testing method that uses sound waves to detect leaks in tanks and pipes. This method is highly effective in detecting small leaks and can be used with other leak detection methods for added security.
