Tank Gauging Systems for Underground LPG Caverns

LEADING THE WAY IN SAFE AND RELIABLE STORAGE SOLUTIONS

At Svanehoj, we specialize in creating tailor-made tank gauging systems for underground LPG storage caverns. These solutions are designed to meet the unique challenges and demands of storing liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) in unlined, pressurized underground facilities, ensuring both safety and efficiency.

Custom Solutions for LPG Storage

Underground caverns provide a secure and cost-effective method for large-volume LPG storage. With capacities often exceeding 100,000m³ per cavern, proper instrumentation is critical for maintaining control and safety.

Our systems are fully customizable to fit the specific requirements of your site, offering unparalleled precision and reliability. This includes advanced monitoring instruments and underground emergency shut-off valves to prevent LPG leaks outside the cavern.

Tank gauging systems

Custom Hydraulic Control Panels

When large LPG installations require multiple hydraulic operating lines or specific project options, our experienced experts can design and manufacture custom hydraulic control panels to meet your needs.

A wide range of options is available, including closed enclosures with doors, pneumatic control systems, pressure sensors and switches, redundant electrical pumps, electrical enclosures with lamps and push buttons, fans, and more, all tailored to your requirements.
Emergency Shut-off Valve (ESV)

Svanehoj safety valves are fail-safe, remotely operated valves for storage tank protection. This range of fail-safe, remote operated valves provides rapid shut down in case of emergency of fire. The valves are recommended to safeguard storage tanks and loading of facilities handling liquefied natural gases and chemicals.
Emergency Shut-off Valve (ESV)

This range of fail-safe Emergency Shut-off Valves are based on our standard valve, but can be custom-made according to meet your requirements, such as higher pressure, special sizes, etc.
Svanehoj offers a fully customized Level Alarm Probe to enhance the monitoring of storage in your cavern facilities. These probes are built with stainless steel piping, and we provide a wide range of sensors that can be installed according to your specifications. Level Alarm Probes are widely used in rock-mined cavern storage, a technology pioneered by Whessoe in 1968 in the south of France.
