Project Details
BPGIC is an important tank storage operator who’s licensed activities in Fujairah, UAE cover the storing of crude oil, fuel oil, all kinds of oil products and gas, as well as building, managing and investing in refineries including the extraction and exploration of crude oil.
After discussions with the consultants MUC, BPGIC approved the use of the Denso Steelcoat™ Tank Base Protection System for all their tanks on their new Fujairah storage facilities terminal. This approval was based on the successful record of the Denso system being used by other tank farm operators in Fujairah. The Denso protective system was applied by contractors Audex. The project completed in March 2017.
The Denso Steelcoat Tank Base Protection System: After hand power tool cleaning and the application of Denso Hi-Tack™ Primer, Densyl™ Mastic is used to fill all voids before the area is wrapped with a layer of Denso Hi-Tack™ Tape. Denso Primer D™ is then applied to a masked area before a layer of Denso Ultraseal RT™ Tape is applied. Finally it is over-coated with Denso Acrylic Topcoat™ forming a lasting waterproof and flexible seal.
