Fluid storage tank
Stackable frac tanks for storing fluid which include a first tank and a second tank stackable atop of the first tank. A fluid connection device is affixed to the first and second tanks to fluidly connect the first and second tanks together. The stackable frac tanks may include a structural support frame interposed between the first and second tanks.
Vertical Fluid Storage Tank with Connecting Ports
A vertical fluid storage tank includes an oval-shaped body having a first end, a second end, and a sidewall extending between the first and second ends. The body defines an interior fluid storage cavity and has a major axis and a minor axis along a horizontal cross section through the body. The fluid storage tank further includes a top wall at the first end of the body, a bottom wall at the second end of the body, and a frame member connected to the sidewall of the body. The frame member includes a first portion that extends longitudinally along the sidewall of the body and a second portion that extends along the bottom wall and is connected to the first portion. The fluid storage tank further includes a connection port on the sidewall of the body adapted for connection to the connection port on an adjacent fluid storage tank.
Roll-off Transport Barrel with Gravity, Vacuum, and Pneumatic Loading and Unloading
A barrel is capable of vacuum loading and unloading, gravity unloading and loading, and pneumatic unloading. A roll-off skid is coupled to the barrel.
Dome-based cyclic inert sealing system for external floating roof tank and QHSE storage and transport method thereof
A dome-based cyclic inert sealing system for an external floating roof tank includes the external floating roof tank, a dome structure, an inert sealing pipeline, and a gas source servo device; wherein the dome structure is formed by a top portion of a tank wall of the external floating roof tank for sealing; the dome structure together with an internal wall of the external floating roof tank, a floating plate and a sealing device form a gas phase space which is isolated from atmosphere, so as to fill the gas phase space with an inert sealing medium; the inert sealing medium is a gas fire-fighting medium used in a suffocation fire-fighting method; the gas source servo device is connected to the gas phase space through the inert sealing pipeline and communicates through a valve for feedback-controlling states of the inert sealing medium in the gas phase space.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS TO TRANSFER PROPPANT FOR FRACKING WITH REDUCED RISK OF PRODUCTION AND RELEASE OF SILICA DUST AT A WELL SITE
Embodiments of methods and systems of transferring proppant for fracking to reduce risk of production and release of silica dust at a well site are provided. An embodiment of a method can include positioning a plurality of containers each having proppant for fracking contained therein onto a conveyor at a well site, downwardly discharging proppant from each respective container of the plurality of containers, funneling proppant from the one or more outlets of each of the plurality of containers through a plurality of conveyor hoppers, receiving proppant onto the conveyor belt, conveying proppant on the conveyor to a chute, and depositing the proppant into the chute for use in a blender or other location at the well site.

Particulate material storage and delivery system
A bulk storage and delivery system for agricultural feed. Curved plates are secured to the interior and exterior of a bulk feed storage container. The curved plates are secured to one another and a vibrator is secured to the curved plates. Horizontal and vertical vibration bars are secured to the curved plates on the interior of the bulk feed storage container. The vibrator transmits vibration through the curved plates and into the horizontal and vertical vibration bars to facilitate flow and reduce bridging and rat holing of the material provided within the bulk feed storage container.
Dual Tank Structure Integrally Supported on a Portable Base Frame
A dual tank structure includes first and second tanks with a common secondary containment structure which are all integrally supported on a common base frame. The common base frame includes longitudinal skids so as to be suitable for transport using a conventional winch truck. A passageway with an integral valve therein permits selective communication between the tanks. The common containment structure has a containment volume which is greater than a storage volume of a largest one of the first tank and the second tank and which is less than a combined storage volume of both the first tank and the second tank.
CRADLE FOR PROPPANT CONTAINER HAVING TAPERED BOX GUIDES AND ASSOCIATED METHODS
Embodiments of the present disclosure include an apparatus to support a proppant container including a frame to receive and support the proppant container, the frame having a top surface that receives and positions the proppant container above a conveyor to carry proppant disposed thereon away from the proppant container. The apparatus also includes a box guide assembly positioned on the top surface including a corner assembly having two wall segments, and a guide member extending upwardly and positioned adjacent the corner assembly, the guide member including tapered portion of the guide member, the taper having a first width at a top portion of the guide member smaller than a second width at a bottom portion of the guide member. The tapered portion contacts and directs the proppant container to a desired location.
APPARATUS FOR THE TRANSPORT AND STORAGE OF PROPPANT
An apparatus for the transport and storage of proppant has a container with a top wall, a pair of end walls and a pair of side walls. The pair of side walls extend between the pair of end walls. The container has a bottom discharge opening. The container includes a funnel extending from the pair of side walls and from the pair of and walls toward the bottom discharge opening. The funnel has sides extending in an angle of greater than 25 with respect to horizontal. The funnel includes a pair of side plates extending respectively from the pair of side walls toward the bottom discharge opening and a pair of end plates extending respectively from the pair of end walls toward the bottom discharge opening. Each of the side plates and the end plates is formed of a stainless steel material.
