Bulk Liquid Storage Facilities
Weld-Con’s growing experience in this sector is visible through the construction of over 300 bulk liquid storage tanks in the last 35 years throughout East and Central Africa. The largest tank that we have constructed to date is for Vivo Energy (A subsidiary of Shell) and measures 42m in diameter and 18m height. This tank was then fitted with an Aluminium geodesic dome roof by us.With untethered experience under our belt we are able to construct any size tank for your project.
With a large fleet of heavy duty cranes and one of the very few companies owning hydraulic tank jacking equipment, no tank is too big for us. We are able to construct large storage facilities in extremely remote areas and dare to go to where others would not. Quality and efficiency are the core deliverables of all our work.
