As the year draws to a close, we’re taking a moment to spotlight another standout project from 2024. This one is a true titan—a 50,000L fully insulated mixing tank, designed and built to the exacting standards of AS1692 and API650.
Crafted from carbon steel with full protective coatings, this impressive tank is engineered for reliability and durability, especially for the demanding conditions of the bitumen petroleum industry. From its robust construction to its precise insulation, every detail of this tank reflects our commitment to quality and performance.
Fun Fact: Bitumen has been in use for over 40,000 years! Neanderthals were the first to use it, sticking bitumen to stone tools to attach wooden or ivory handles. Archaeologists have even found evidence of this clever technique at ancient sites like Gura Cheii Cave in Romania and Umm El Tlel in Syria
Built for a Purpose
This tank’s role in the bitumen petroleum sector makes it a critical piece of equipment. It’s designed not just to hold but to efficiently mix materials under varying conditions, ensuring optimal performance and productivity.
The tank’s insulation adds another layer of functionality, helping to maintain temperature control and improve energy efficiency; features that are essential in this industry.
Destination - Melbourne
This beauty is now on its way to its new home in Melbourne. Watching a project of this scale come together is always rewarding, but seeing it head out into the world is the cherry on top. Knowing it will soon be at the heart of a busy manufacturing operation fills us with pride.
2024 Is A Year to Remember
As we reflect on 2024, it’s clear this year has been one for the books. From innovative designs to large scale builds like this mixing tank, we’ve had the opportunity to tackle exciting challenges and deliver exceptional results.
To everyone who has been part of our journey this year; our amazing team, clients and partners; thank you for making it an incredible year. We’re excited for what’s ahead in 2025 and we’re ready to take on more ambitious projects!
