Aboveground storage tanks are critical infrastructure across the global economy, storing refined fuels, chemical feedstocks, aviation fuel, and industrial materials that keep entire industries functioning. Regular API 653-compliant inspection is not just a regulatory requirement, it is essential to protecting workers, communities, and assets from the consequences of tank failure.
Square Robot's SR-3 robotic inspection platform gives operators in every major tank-dependent industry a safer, faster, and more accurate way to keep tanks compliant, without taking tanks out of service.
Square Robot serves every major industry that relies on aboveground storage tanks, bringing on-stream robotic inspection capability to the most demanding operational environments in the world.
Refineries operate large-volume storage tanks that require regular API 653-compliant inspection. Traditional out-of-service inspections are costly and disruptive, often taking tanks offline for weeks or months at a time. Square Robot's SR-3 platform enables refinery operators to meet inspection requirements without shutdown, reducing costs and maintaining operational continuity.
Chemical storage facilities present some of the most challenging environments for tank inspection with product hazards that make confined space entry particularly dangerous. Square Robot's platform eliminates worker exposure to hazardous chemical atmospheres while delivering accurate inspection data that meets regulatory requirements.
