Safe Tank Farms and (Un)Loading Operations (BP Process Safety Series)

Summarising BP's decades of experience in auditing all sizes of depots, terminals and refineries, this booklet will be a gold mine of useful information to tank farm operators, managers, designers and auditors. It raises awareness to the possibility of common failures and their consequences, and helps readers to adopt safe designs and practices. New edition includes an incident description for the Buncefield fire of December 2005. This title presents an excellent introduction to the topic for students. Two new case studies have been added since the 2006 edition.
