Case Study: Biodiesel Storage Tank in Midland, TX

March 21, 2018 by Rebecca

Project Overview – Biodiesel Storage Tank

This RIDGLOK® Vertical Standing Seam Panel Insulation System was custom manufactured and installed on a biodiesel storage tank measuring 50’ in diameter and 48’ tall.

The RIDGLOK® Insulated Panel System consisted of 0.024 stucco-embossed aluminum metals jacketing in white, laminated to 2.0” of polyisocyanurate insulation board with an R-Value of 13.1 using a cone roof design.

The site supervisor stated that the job was completed satisfactorily and that they would recommend both the RIDGLOK® Panel System and the MC&I crew.

Your system and installation looked professional. The attention to detail on some of the harder areas was very good: e.g. recess for heat trace connection. Also, especially the sealing /caulking around penetrations in your insulated panels: e.g. around flanges. Your system and installation looked great.
