CALIBRATION

HMT provides tank calibration service,

commonly known as “Tank Strapping”

which is the procedure for measuring

storage tanks, barges, ships, or any liquid

bulk container to provide the necessary

dimensions for capacity table calculations.

HMT services are developed under the

guidance of applicable API Standards for

tank calibration.

HMT employs a written policy and

procedure manual to ensure all tank

calibration work is performed in a

uniform manner. All tank calibration

work is conducted in strict accordance

with engineering principals as well as

the latest American Petroleum Institute

(API) Manual of Petroleum Measurements

Standard and International Organization of

Standardization (ISO) Standards.

All Tank Calibration work, calculations and

chart production is performed in-house.

Calibration charts can be customized to

meet all customers’ needs, including:

innage or ullage, feet and inches, decimal

feet, or metric units. Our internal checks

and balance procedures ensure that all

measurements and computations are in

accordance with the noted standards.

HMT’s calibration department is well

known in the industry and is managed by

a team with over 50 years combined tank

calibration experience. HMT’s calibration

technicians are trained and approved to

perform calibration in accordance with

MPMS Chapter 2.2 “TANK CALIBRATION”.

RECOMMENDATIONSCalibration of storage tanks should be performed if the tank is newly constructed, has had structural modifications, is in conjunction with API 653 Inspections or is during minimum 15 year intervals as recommended by API. Additionally re-computations of calibration charts may be required if there have been changes in products stored that have different gravities, change in floating roof weights or leg positions or if there is a reference gauge height variation.
