Floating suction lines and skimmer units

Withdrawing product from storage tanks could well result in concerns regarding the quality ofthe product withdrawn. Quite often the bottom part of the product stored in the tank will be seriously contaminated, either with water (rainwater) or sludge (tank corrosion and other pollutants). To avoid withdrawing contaminated product from storage tanks floating suction lines are the ideal approach to improve the quality of this product. Other installations of special suction arrangements for storage tanks are known from slops tanks, where oil skimmers are used to withdraw the top part of the liquid column, usually being the lighter hydrocarbon parts. Floating suction lines and skimmer arrangements can be fitted in conventional fixed roof storage tanks, external floating roof tanks and internal floating roof tanks.
