Benefits
Tank-Eye closed systems
Having a closed system has a couple of essential advantages for inland barges and shore tanks. Find out what our solution can do for your company.
Safe | Environment-friendly
Working safely and securely is crucial when inspecting tanks. No more harmful and dangerous substances nor emissions are exposed to human beings and the environment. Our solution eliminates the need for unnecessary nitrogen purging. Also there is no more unpleasant stench during sampling for the surrounding area.
Tank-Eye vapour lock valves are fully compliant and certified.
Fast installation
The installation of Tank-Eye closed systems is fast. For inland barges we have 2 installation methods. We offer a tank head installation and a butterwash hatch installation. For a tank head installation we only need 1 day and we install while your ship is on a wharf or being built. For a butterwash hatch installation, we can do the installation in <8 hours. Also, for the butterwash hatch, no wharf is needed. Our fast service reduces waiting time for your inland barge.
Since the installation including the vapour lock valve is custom-made, you can easily install it atop shore tanks immediately after delivery.
Save costs
Our solution increases precision. More accurate results eliminate quantity losses and contamination risks, hence saving time and costs. Also the vapour lock valves close off shore tanks rapidly and at a fraction of the cost compared to alternative systems.
Future-ready
Our world evolves into a greener, emission-free earth. Rules and regulations are getting stricter and will affect the inspections for inland barges as well as shore tanks. For inland barges open sampling is no longer allowed as of 1 January 2025. Most terminals already reject open sampling.
Being prepared with Tank-Eye closed systems brings many advantages while also lowering your emission footprint.
