Fuel Tanks Life Expectancy at Daniel Chavez blog

Fuel Tanks Life Expectancy. What is the expected lifespan of an underground fuel tank? Under ideal conditions, diesel fuel can be stored between twelve and eighteen months. Hdpe fuel tanks can potentially last a very long. For seasoned veterans of the fuel industry, 2019 might begin to feel like 1989 all over again. On average, the life expectancy of aboveground fuel storage tanks and other aboveground storage tanks (asts) is about 20 years. This can vary based on the fabrication and materials, application, features, location, size, and maintenance of the storage tank. The environmental protection agency (epa) estimates that the average historical ust lifespan is close to 20 years. The reason for the déja vu? Some tanks last for decades, so metal tanks only need to be replaced if they are damaged or if they have corroded severely. Like they did circa 1989, underground storage tank (ust) replacements and closures will likely surge in the next five to 10 years. Generally, an underground fuel tank lasts more than twenty years, but this depends on the construction process, material, installation system, maintenance and soil. To extend the life past twelve months, even under the best conditions, it must be treated with fuel stabilizers and biocides and monitored for any water buildup. As a tank ages past 30 years, it becomes only a question of time before that tank will begin to leak. In most cases, an oil tank will last between 15 and 20 years — roughly two or three times the length of the average residential occupancy.
