Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. At Savannah Tank, we have decades of experience helping our customers get the tanks and process equipment they need at the best possible cost. We consider a number of different tank diameter and height scenarios that will meet your volume requirement and evaluate them in terms of fabrication and shipping cost so that we can offer you the best possible option. We also provide a Tank Volume Calculator tool that can assist you with rough tank dimensions for a given volume.

Absolutely. If you can give us a few basic details about your requirements, we will be happy to work with you so that we understand your needs and can put a proposal together for you. Some of the things we will need to know include:

  • Approximate size (dimensions or volume required)
  • Internal and external pressure requirements (if any)
  • Density of the contents
  • Material of construction (stainless steel, carbon steel, etc.)
  • Vertical or horizontal orientation
  • Means of support (legs, side supports, skirt, saddles, etc.)
  • Approximate number and size of nozzles and manways required
  • Geographic location of the tank (for wind and seismic calculations)
  • Any additional design requirements such as external jackets, internal coils, mixer, ladder, handrails, etc.

After gaining a thorough understanding of your particular design requirements, the team at our pressure vessel company performs a set of detailed calculations that guide us in determining the design and thickness of each structural component on your equipment.

For storage tanks, the calculations assure our designs conform to standards set forth by the American Petroleum Institute (API). For pressure vessels, the calculations comply with Section VIII, Division 1 of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code.

As your custom pressure tank manufacturer, we can build your tank, pressure vessel, or process equipment in a range of steels, including:

  • Carbon steel
  • Stainless steel
  • Duplex stainless steel
  • Monel
  • Inconel

We can assist you with cost tradeoffs between different materials and can suggest different options for you to consider, but we cannot advise you on a material’s compatibility or suitability for your particular application.

Yes. Our tank company routinely builds tanks with dimple jackets, half pipe jackets, and conventional jackets to help our customers achieve the operating temperatures they need for their particular processes. Visit our jacketed tanks page to learn more or contact us today to request a quote.
