Above-ground storage Tanks (AST) can have widely varying life spans
On average, the life expectancy of above-ground fuel storage tanks and other above-ground storage tanks is approximately 20 years. This can vary based on the fabrication and materials, application, features, location, size, and maintenance of the storage tank.
As you might expect, poorly maintained tanks may not last for 20 years, and well-maintained tanks may remain serviceable well beyond this period.
Well-maintained is supported by regular inspections, cleaning, and maintenance — including protective coatings, corrosion control, and environmental monitoring.
Rather than starting over entirely, why not invest in a team of professionals with the knowledge and experience to help your tanks go the distance?
