Oil Tank Leak Solutions and Environmental Services

Leaking oil tanks can pose significant environmental challenges for property owners. Luckily, oil spills, also referred to as leaks or releases, are sometimes preventable by performing annual tank testing.

However, when they do happen, the consequences can be severe, including contamination, lingering odors, and potential health hazards and damage to your property and the surrounding environment. Cleanup efforts can also be costly, reaching tens of thousands of dollars.

Understanding Preventing Oil Tank Leaks and Spills

Most properties store heating oil in one of two ways:

  • Underground storage tanks, typically located on the property grounds
  • Above-ground storage tanks, often found alongside the property, in a garage, or basement
  • Regular maintenance and testing of oil tanks can detect leaks before they become more-serious environmental impacts to your property.

When either type of oil tank leaks, the released fuel can seep into the ground and surrounding areas, potentially contaminating groundwater and spreading to neighboring properties.

Oil releases can also impact indoor air quality and threaten nearby drinking water wells.

Non-Volumetric: All volumetric and mass measurement technology must deal with a variety of variables that do not affect our non-volumetric acoustical system.

Quality Instrumentation: EZY 3 Locator Plus was designed specifically for the harsh environment it must operate in. No ultrasonic or pyrex probes to break on the jobsite.

Tank Down Time: No waiting period between deliveries and testing. Tank down time is less than 90 minutes. This keeps the tank owner happy! No other manufacturer can make this claim and back it up with their third party evaluation.

Test Pressure: A low test pressure of -0.5 psig is placed on the tank bottom.

Liquid Level: Tanks can be tested at virtually any liquid level.

Large Tanks: Test up to 30,000 gallon capacity.

Test the Entire Tank System: One test, not multiple tests, determines the tank system’s integrity.

One Tank or Multiple: EZY 3 Locator Plus can test one tank or multiple tanks simultaneously.

Manifolded Tanks: Manifolded tanks are tested together, but if a problem exists EZY 3 Locator Plus can pinpoint which tank has the problem. No limitation on total capacity of manifolded tanks. However, tanks cannot exceed 30,000 gallon each.

Different Types of Leaks Produce Different Acoustic Signals: EZY 3 Locator Plus is capable of detecting air intrusion in the liquid, air intrusion in the ullage, water and/or product trickling into the tank.

Ease of Operation: The technician uses their eyes and ears, not complicated graphs, charts and computer programs.
