Storage systems
The storage of oil, chemicals, waste or plastic pellets, both on shore and offshore, must take into account operational needs and the type of pollutant
Standardised tests
Aims
Assess the tensile strength of the fabrics of which flexible storage tanks and floating storage capacities are made
