Tank Inspection App runs structured tank inspections across every site. Inspectors complete forms on a phone or tablet, capture photo and voice evidence on each tank, and raise corrective actions the moment something fails. Managers see tank compliance status, open issues, and performance across every site in real time.
Tank Inspection App runs a structured tank inspection covering shell and roof condition, corrosion and coating, bund and secondary containment, vents, gauges, and valves, and foundation and settlement, with a photo and a sign-off required on each point. Without a system, tank findings live on paper and in chat. A tank fault such as shell corrosion or thinning slips through. An audit then means rebuilding tank evidence from folders.
Tank Inspection App keeps one record per tank and per site, with photo evidence and a named sign-off. Each tank finding is tracked to verified closure. Tank integrity and terminal teams see tank completion and overdue actions across the energy & utilities portfolio. Every tank record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.
What to Include in a Tank Inspection App?
A comprehensive tank inspection covers the key areas that affect operations and compliance. Inspect storage tanks with shell, roof, seal, gauging, and safety accessory checks plus leak and corrosion evidence. Your inspection should include sections for shell and roof condition, corrosion and coating, and bund and secondary containment, evidence capture, pass/fail or scoring criteria, corrective action assignment, and sign-off, so that nothing is missed and every inspection finding is traceable.
How to Use Tank Inspection App
A consistent routine keeps tank inspections reliable across every site. Follow these steps to run an effective inspection:
Open the assigned tank template on a phone or tablet and confirm the site, tank, date, and inspector.
Work through each section, marking items pass or fail and recording the condition of the tank.
Attach a photo or voice note for any finding, especially shell corrosion or thinning, coating breakdown, damaged or breached bund, blocked vent or faulty gauge.
For every failed tank item, raise a corrective action with an owner, severity, and due date.
Sign off the tank form. The tank report generates automatically and syncs to the multi-site dashboard.
What Does a Tank Inspection Cover?
A tank inspection covers shell and roof condition, corrosion and coating, bund and secondary containment, vents, gauges, and valves, and foundation and settlement. Tank integrity and terminal teams capture a photo and a reading on each tank point. They work offline where signal is poor, then sign the tank round off. So every tank record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.

How Tank Inspection App Runs a Tank Inspection
Step 1
Define and Deploy
Build the tank template with objective pass-fail criteria and schedule it to mobile teams.
Step 2
Capture and Verify
Inspectors run the inspection with photo evidence on each finding, such as shell corrosion or thinning, coating breakdown, damaged or breached bund, blocked vent or faulty gauge, and failed items raise corrective actions.
Step 3
Report and Improve
Dashboards built on verified tank data reveal recurring patterns on the tank across every site.

What Tank Teams Fix When Inspections Move Off Paper
Tank work breaks down the moment evidence leaves the form. These are the problems Tank Inspection App is built to remove, and what the team gets back when it does.
Tank checks signed off on paper with no proof the tank was actually checked
A tank inspection is ticked off on a paper form. Weeks later someone asks whether the tank was actually checked, and whether shell corrosion or thinning, coating breakdown, damaged or breached bund, blocked vent or faulty gauge were looked at. Nobody can say for certain the tank passed.
Problem
Tank checks recorded on paper with no evidence attached
No way to confirm shell corrosion or thinning, coating breakdown, damaged or breached bund, blocked vent or faulty gauge were actually inspected
Tank findings re-keyed into a spreadsheet, with errors and delay
Solution
One digital tank form with required fields and validation
Photo, GPS, and timestamp on every tank check
Tank findings sync to the dashboard, no re-keying
Assigned contractor signs off the tank fix, and nobody checks it
A defect on the tank is handed to assigned contractor. A week later the tank defect is marked closed. Whether the tank work was done well, badly, or at all, nobody has verified.
Problem
Assigned contractor marks work closed with no verification
Poor tank fixes are only found at the next inspection
No record of which tank partners actually perform
Solution
Closure photo required before any tank action is signed off
Assigned contractor performance scored on closure speed and re-opens
Re-opened tank actions linked back to the original finding
Tank data is scattered across spreadsheets, photos, and chat
Some tank records sit in Excel, some in a WhatsApp group, some in a folder of photos. There is no single source of truth for the tank, so every tank question takes an hour and three people to answer.
Problem
Tank records split across Excel, chat, and photo folders
No single trusted version of the tank record
Answering a simple tank question takes hours
Solution
One system of record for every tank check and finding
Every tank photo and action tied to its record
Search any site or tank and get an answer instantly
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Tank Inspection App check on a tank inspection?
Tank Inspection App runs a structured tank inspection covering shell and roof condition, corrosion and coating, bund and secondary containment, vents, gauges, and valves, and foundation and settlement. Each point is captured on mobile with a photo and a reading, and a named inspector signs the round off before it can close. The same template runs on every site, so tank integrity and terminal teams work to one standard rather than a version that drifts between locations. Every record proves what was checked, when, and by whom, so the evidence is ready long before an assessor asks for it.
Which tank defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?
The inspection targets the tank failures that matter most: shell corrosion or thinning, coating breakdown, damaged or breached bund, and blocked vent or faulty gauge. Left unchecked, a fault such as shell corrosion or thinning can mean downtime, a safety incident, or a failed audit, so every finding becomes an owned task with a deadline. It stays open until photo proof of the repair is reviewed, and repeat problems are flagged so tank integrity and terminal teams fix the cause rather than the symptom. Prioritising by severity means the most serious issues are handled first, not whichever was reported loudest.
Which standards does Tank Inspection App support for tank work?
Tank Inspection App keeps tank checks aligned to API 653 and EEMUA 159. The photos and readings each standard expects are required fields, so an incomplete check cannot be closed and a gap is caught before an assessor finds it. When a review is due, tank integrity and terminal teams pull the records for the site in scope with one search instead of rebuilding them from folders. Retention and history stay searchable, so proof remains defensible at any point, not only on the day of an audit.
Can teams run tank checks offline and across multiple sites?
Yes. Tank Inspection App is offline-first: teams complete tank checks on iOS or Android with no signal, capturing photos and the evidence each check requires in the field. Each record syncs automatically when the connection returns, with its timestamp intact, and the same template runs on every site. So tank integrity and terminal teams get a live view of what is complete, overdue, or failing per location, and a weak connection in a remote or low-signal area never costs a round or loses a photo.
What evidence proves a tank inspection was completed?
Every completed tank inspection carries shell thickness reading, bund condition photo, and vent and gauge photo, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. Because the evidence is captured during the round rather than typed up afterwards, tank integrity and terminal teams can show exactly what was checked, when, and by whom. When an assessor or client asks, the record exports in seconds as a branded PDF or a searchable history, so proof never depends on someone remembering where a photo was saved or which folder holds last quarter's records.
