Skid-mounted gas stations have made great contributions to solving the problem of oil leakage
In the safety inspections of gas stations over the years, oil leakage is one of the most common safety hazards. Why do oil leak frequently? Are gas stations willing to pay for these wasted oil? In fact, it is not like this. The problem of oil leakage has always existed in gas stations and cannot be changed. It was not completely solved until the advent of skid-mounted gas stations. Next, let's take a look at how skid-mounted gas stations avoid oil leakage.
First, let's analyze the causes of oil leakage. The thickness of the oil storage tank is not enough, the construction party does not properly handle the outer surface of the oil tank, the welds are unqualified, the anti-corrosion materials do not meet the grade, and the anti-corrosion layer is accidentally damaged during construction. These construction reasons are easy to leave hidden dangers. Secondly, the oil tank is buried underground for a long time in a humid environment, and is corroded by moisture and microorganisms in the soil, thus forming corrosive holes in the oil storage tank. According to technical standards, a one-meter gap should be left around the oil tank to facilitate workers' maintenance and ensure that the oil tank will not come into direct contact with the soil and water. However, many gas stations directly dig a large pit and bury the oil tank during construction.

Secondly, the oil inside the skid-mounted gas station tank contains water, and water will precipitate from the bottom after a long time. The precipitated water of different oil products is acidic or alkaline, which will cause pitting corrosion to the steel of the oil tank, and may also form perforations over time. "Earthquake micro-movements may also cause damage to poor quality oil tanks." Even according to technical standards, the corrosive power of oil can cause this old single-layer carbon steel oil tank to leak oil after 20 years, without many exceptions. "What's more, the previous technical standards for the thickness of the oil tank wall were also very confusing, with some saying a few millimeters." It is this disorder that has led to a large number of gas station oil tanks being unqualified.
According to scholars from a well-known petroleum university, at present, gas stations are basically waterproofed according to the waterproof standards for industrial and civil buildings. Waterproof materials such as felt, asphalt, and other organic substances such as paraffin and stearic acid-treated microparticles can effectively prevent water leakage, but petroleum products are highly soluble. Over time, oil products will penetrate the waterproof layer and pollute groundwater.
How to deal with this problem? The promotion of skid-mounted gas stations provides new possibilities for solving the hidden dangers of oil leakage. In accordance with the "Technical Requirements for Barrier Explosion-Proof Skid-Mounted Gas (Gas) Station Devices" AQ3002-2005, "Technical Specifications for Automobile Gas Stations Using Skid-Mounted Gas Stations" SH/T3134-2002, "Design and Construction Specifications for Automobile Gas Stations" GB50516-2012 and other technical specifications, a high-tech, explosion-suppressing, and movable "micro gas station", which is what we often call a skid-mounted gas station, is successfully eliminated because it is equipped with a double-walled oil storage tank. The problem of oil seepage and leakage.

It also solves the following problems: the problem of not being able to build a station due to high environmental protection requirements; the problem of safe storage and filling of alcohol fuel, gasoline, diesel, kerosene and other fuels and similar substances; the problem of time-consuming, labor-intensive and costly refueling at the station; the problem of not being able to refuel nearby because the workplace is in a remote field; the problem of no reserves due to temporary fuel shortages; the problem of not being able to build a station due to the small bottom area of the site; the problem of not being able to build a station due to insufficient "firefighting" distance; the problem of not being able to build a station due to the changeable filling site; the problem of not being able to build a station due to concerns about safety hazards.
Skid-mounted gas stations not only solve the problem of oil leakage and leakage, but also greatly reduce the oil cost of skid-mounted gas station companies and improve economic benefits. Therefore, skid-mounted gas stations have attracted the attention of many companies in recent years. It is hoped that the country can standardize national standards as soon as possible so that skid-mounted gas stations can be popularized in China.
The above is about the reasons for oil leakage in gas stations and the perfect avoidance measures for skid-mounted gas stations. I hope it will be helpful for everyone to understand gas stations.
