Industrial Asset Management Made Simple

Our Inspectors are certified ASNT-SNT-TC-1A Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) technicians. Our NDT methods yield in-depth quantitative results, allowing us to calculate corrosion rates and find areas of excessive deterioration. We can then recommend the preventative maintenance needed to mitigate the probability of a hazardous discharge into the environment and avoid more costly repairs later on.

We perform both fixed interval inspections and risk-based inspections to provide insight into the structural integrity of your assets when it is most needed. Our expert API 653, API 510, STI SP0001, and API 570 inspections will uncover exactly how well your tank is holding up, to both outside elements and the product it contains.

OUR NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING SERVICES INCLUDE:

  • Above Ground Tank Inspection
  • Visual Inspections
  • Ultrasonic Testing
  • Magnetic Particle Testing / Magnaflux Inspection
  • Penetrant Dye Testing
  • Vacuum Box Testing
  • Radiographic Testing

Why Florida is Choosing NDT Tanknicians

Industry is thriving in Florida. The state was ranked #2 in Chief Executive’s Best States for Business in 2020, and is home to a variety of businesses including Crowley Maritime Corp, Paul Murray Oil, and the Marathon Oil Corporation in Jacksonville and Tallahassee Exploration Inc. and Eli Roberts & Sons in Tallahassee. This industrial growth corresponds to a rise in storage tanks — Palm Beach County alone has over 2800 storage tanks and vessels located in over 1300 facilities, holding up to 21 million gallons.

Florida’s ports play an important role in its industrial growth. PortMiami has an annual cargo tonnage of 7.42 million. The Port of Pensacola facilitates trade with Mexico, Brazil, and Israel and Jacksonville’s JAXPORT facilitates regular container service to Asia, South America, the Caribbean, and Central America, as well as shipments to Europe and Africa. While these seaborne transport options enable many commercial activities, the salt water of the Gulf Coast and the Atlantic Ocean increases the oxidation rates and corrosion of its storage tanks. With a climate ranging between humid subtropical and tropical, hurricanes, severe storms, and floods pose a significant risk in many areas.

NDT Tanknicians are experienced in addressing the unique challenges faced by industrial businesses in Florida. In addition to non-destructive tank inspections, we provide high-quality anti-corrosive coating and lining services and expert repair services, allowing you to extend the lifespan of your assets and safeguard against costly premature degradation caused by weather, oxidation, or other means.

Structural integrity, safety, and compliance are important issues for business owners in the state. The Florida Air and Water Pollution Control Act was passed by the Florida Legislature in 1967, with the intention of regulating polluting activites in order to protect, maintain, and improve air and water quality in the state. Florida was also one of the first states to pass legislation and create regulations regarding above ground storage tank systems, establishing their guidelines in 1983. We specialize in helping companies understand the risks to their assets, repairing damage, and ensuring that their storage tanks and vessels remain structurally sound.
