Needless to say, Oil trading is one of the crucial parts of the economical growth and this has the power to change the economic condition of a nation in just a moment. In that case oil storage tanks whether it is fuel oil tank (measurement in gallon) or liter oil tank (measurement in liter) are in great concern being a daily life device. Fuel oil has a low boiling point and high toxicity hence a proper storage is required to avoid accidental hazards. Fuel oil storage tanks are not only deals with the storage of the oil but also transportation of the same. Recently used fuel tanks are highly designed with the help of technologies so that a huge quantity of oil can be stored without any other problems like leakage, production of byproduct due to the reaction of the oil and the tank material. For these purposes the selection of the tank depends upon the nature of the oil. Fuel oil tanks or liter oil tank are of mainly two types, underground tanks and above ground tanks. The underground tanks are usually immobile and use to store a large quantity of fuel and always associated with a pumping system. The above ground fuel tanks are often mobile and associated with a cylindrical shape. Production and placements of the underground tanks are very special as they are consisted of several layers to prevent the leakage of the oil, cracking of the tank and as well as pollution of the soil and the water system. Stainless steel are the basic components of manufacturing of above ground tanks but not for the underground one as in underground condition metals are susceptible to corrosion where as fiberglass remains unchanged. Hence Fiberglass tanks are used for underground fuel oil storage. Detection of leakage in case of underground tanks is difficult but according to the recent researches death of green plants at the site where the tank is placed underground, is the indication of leakage of fuel oil. As the fuel oil is highly inflammable hence movement of the tank should always follow some basic guidelines. The cylinders used for household purpose are generally of 275 gallons and must be rustproof and non-earthen. The installation and manufacture of a fuel oil tank always follow Strict Federal Law and environmental safety law according to which a tank must be checked thoroughly at the site of installation, no matter how many times it has been checked before. Recent advancement like BLABO, SLOPO automated systems helps us to avoid manual cleaning of tanks.
