High Pressure Expansion Joints for Oil Terminal in the Middle East
An Oil Terminal, also known as a tank farm or oil depot, is an industrial facility for the storage of oil, petroleum and petrochemical products, and from which these products are transported to end users or other storage facilities
The tank and the adjacent piping are considered to move and therefore Expansion Joints should be installed at storage tank to pipelines connections to absorb tank settlement, misalignments and movements due to thermal expansion and contraction.
In most cases universal expansion joints are used for these applications as they are the ideal solution to accommodate deviations in the piping system and possible movements or settlement of the tank.
Highlights of this project:
Universal Tied Expansion Joints
Reinforced bellows
- Sizes: From 750 mm to 900 mm
- Design Pressure: 18 bar
- Test Pressure: 27 bar
- Medium: Crude Oil
Single Tied Expansion Joints
- Reinforced bellows
- Sizes: From 400 mm to 600 mm
- Design Pressure: 18 bar
- Test Pressure: 27 bar
- Medium: Crude Oil
MACOGA has extensive experience in the manufacture of high-tech Expansion for tanks farms and the relative pipework providing customer support which extends from the planning stage to the installation of the Expansion Joints.
