Spherical shaped storage in the form of ASMEpressure vessels are used in gas and liquidstorage in many industries including midstream,downstream, petrochemical, chemical, wastewater, and aerospace.
Spheres can store manyproducts such as anhydrous ammonia, LPG,NGL, gasoline, naphtha, butadiene, ethylene,hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, argon, LNG,biogas, sewage gas and waste water.
A spherical shape offers uniform stressdistribution under internal loading resulting
in highly efficient pressurized storage. Spherestorage results in the lowest land space forpressurized storage and offers lower costs forfoundations, coatings, accessories, and pipingthan other options.
We provide EPC/Turnkey solutions for ASMEsphere storage in accordance with our ASMECertificates of Authorization for Section VIII,Divisions 1 and 2 vessels, as well as sphere/vessel repair in accordance with our NationalBoard R Certificate of Authorization.
