Fuel Storage Tanks

A fuel storage tank can be an underground storage tank (UST) or an above ground storage tank (AST).

Underground Fuel Storage Tanks (UST's) and Oil Tank Removal

UST stands for Underground Storage Tank. A UST may contain petroleum products or certain hazardous substances. A UST is defined as a tank and any of its associated piping that has at least 10% of its combined volume underground.

Home Heating Oil Tanks

Home heating oil tanks can vary in size, from 275-gallons to over 1,000-gallons. The size of the tank is sometimes dependant on the age of the house, the size of the house, and the homeowner’s personal oil consumption.
