DIESEL STORAGE REQUIREMENTS AND REGULATIONS
The Control of Pollution Regulations from 2001 dictate the legal requirements for storing oil (including diesel) on a property. The main points are as such:
- Oil must be stored in a container that is strong enough to make sure that it will not burst or leak when full
- Oil tanks and containers must be placed inside a containment system
- Valves and pipes must be sealed to prevent leaking and placed within the secondary confinement system or used with a drip tray to catch any spills
- Fixed tanks must have a sight gauge that has a valve which can be closed automatically
- Automatic overfill prevention devices must be used when it’s not practical to observe the vent pipe or tank
All of our diesel storage tanks are manufactured to comply with these guidelines. Our diesel tanks are bunded and are made from mild steel or recyclable polyethylene. We also offer multi-compartment diesel tanks to store several kinds of liquids (most commonly diesel and AdBlue).
