High Definition Tank Scanning
Murphy Geospatial are leaders in the provision of high-definition as-built and engineering surveys of storage tanks. Our clients include Phillips 66, Exxon Mobil, Vopak, Zenith Energy Management, Rhyal Engineering, Dimoin Calderería S.A & the National Oil Reserves Agency (NORA).
Our highly qualified and innovative personnel, continual investment in the latest equipment and cutting-edge technologies and the most efficient solutions cut costs and risks for our clients, while meeting the highest standards in accuracy and detail.
This technological approach and laser scanning expertise paves a way for a fully collaborative process leading to richer, more accurate and comprehensive maintenance reports and 3D models ready for a multitude of downstream uses in a project life-cycle.
3D CAD Models
The dense point cloud data which is generated from laser scanning enables our surveyors to create mm accurate 3D CAD models of storage tanks.
Murphy Geospatial can provide detailed CAD models of all tank elements from the shell and floor deformations, to the roof structure, and the internal & external pipework in a variety of formats, such as AutoCAD and Revit.
These CAD models can be used for asset management, design purposes and for use with Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software, when assessing the lifespan of a storage tank.
Finite Element Analysis
ABAQUS software is used to assess the resistance of tanks with exceeded dimensional tolerances and to provide an answer as to whether such tanks are suitable for normal use or not.
In the FEM analysis the measured imperfections provided and elasto-plastic material properties will be accounted for by Murphy Geospatial. Is your tank Fit for service even if dimensional tolerances are exceeded?
