Abstract

Kuwait Oil Company (KOC) has 85 crude oil aboveground storage tanks in its Tankfarms for the storage of crude oil prior to<br>export. These tanks have storage capacities ranging from 162,000 to 597,500 bbl. (US). Hydrocarbons leaks / spillages<br>resulting from tank failures, if any, could be very expensive and could pose serious fire hazards apart from major<br>environmental issues. Therefore, in order to carry out a comprehensive assessment of the tanks to prevent any impending<br>failure, KOC decided to adopt Risk Based Inspection (RBI) approach to evaluate the risks associated.
