Storage tanks are a common and critical part of many process plants, tank farms and terminals — but they face a constant enemy: corrosion. Over time, corrosion can thin and weaken tank walls, roofs and bottoms, leading to leaks, spills or even structural failure. While much attention is given to corrosive attack originating inside a tank, corrosion also originates and grows from the outside in, particularly on tanks covered with insulation.
