A modular container is provided having a base. A plurality of panels is coupled to the base to form an enclosure having an internal volume. The plurality of panels substantially defines an outer perimeter, and substantially defines a top circumferential edge of the modular container. At least one door provides access to the internal volume. A roof having a shoebox flange is coupled to the plurality of panels. The shoebox flange circumscribes the roof and defines the outer perimeter of the roof. The shoebox flange fits over the top circumferential edge. The roof comprises a plurality of individual roof panels that are fastenable together. The modular container, when in a disassembled and flat-packed state, fits at least one of horizontally and vertically in an ISO container.

A cargo rack for transferring loads between a marine vessel and an offshore marine platform (for example, oil and gas well drilling or production platform) provides a frame having a front, a rear, and upper and lower end portions. The lower end of the frame has a perimeter beam base, a raised floor and a pair of open-ended parallel fork tine tubes or sockets that communicate with the perimeter beam at the front and rear of the frame, preferably being structurally connected (e.g., welded) thereto. Openings in the perimeter beam base align with the forklift tine tubes or sockets. The frame includes a plurality of fixed side walls extending upwardly from the perimeter beam that include at least left and right side walls. A plurality of gates are movably mounted on the frame including a gate at least at the front and at least at the rear of the frame, each gate being movable between open and closed positions, the gates enabling a forklift to place fluid holding tanks on the floor by accessing either the front of the frame or the rear of the frame. A manifold arrangement with specially configured fittings enables transfer of fluid in any tank to a common outlet.

Disclosed are various embodiments for a mobile crossdock system comprising one or more containers aligned in a configuration to form a mobile crossdock for mobile crossdock operations. The one or more containers are detachably attached to a platform such as a vehicle trailer. Further, the one or more containers may comprise a first side having a first plurality of openings and a second side having a second plurality of openings. A plurality of doors are aligned with the first plurality of openings and the second plurality of openings and are configured to move between a closed position and an open position. A plurality of ramps are configured to lift or raise a rear end of a vehicle to a position where a cargo area of the vehicle is substantially aligned with a floor of the mobile crossdock.

A storage facility. The facility comprises a plurality of load-bearing containers located at a single facility. The facility further comprises a climate controlled enclosure comprising a skin and providing a volume around the plurality of load-bearing containers. The climate controlled enclosure further comprises a ceiling above and positioned to shield an uppermost level of the plurality of load-bearing containers from outdoor environmental exposure.

A modular container storage system includes multiple container units configured to be assembled to one another in an indefinite expanded state for enabling sheltered access to the stored items through a corridor enclosure, and in a compacted state for convenient transport and/or reduced storage space.

Disclosed is a containment system for a substance in liquid or particulate form including juxtaposed collection containers and at least one connection bracket including a flattened base and locking unit including at least two locking elements, protruding from two respective ends of the base, wherein the collection container includes a support base which has at least one groove on its outer face which opens onto at least one edge of the support base, the groove having at least one indented housing having a plan shape equal to that of the locking elements and wherein the bracket has the first locking element inserted into the housing of a first container and the second locking element inserted into the housing of a second container.

A modular container storage system includes multiple container units configured to be assembled to one another in an indefinite expanded state for enabling sheltered access to the stored items through a corridor enclosure, and in a compacted state for convenient transport and/or reduced storage space.

A bulk material handling system includes a majors material handling system including bulk material storage modules and bulk material dispensing modules. The dispensing modules include bulk material dosing assemblies and docking assemblies. A bulk material handling method includes conveying bulk material from a mobile bulk material container into a stationary bulk material container at a glass manufacturing facility via dense phase pneumatic conveying.

A modular fuel tank assembly includes a first fuel tank body defining a first inner volume and a second fuel tank body defining a second inner volume, where the first inner volume is spatially separate from the second inner volume. A connecting conduit is in fluid communication with the first fuel tank and the second fuel tank. The first fuel tank, the second fuel tank and the connecting conduit each define a double-walled structure having an inner wall and an outer wall spaced apart from the inner wall.

A bulk material handling method includes conveying bulk material directly from a mobile bulk material container into a stationary bulk material container at a glass manufacturing facility. The conveying of the bulk material is performed via dense-phase pneumatic conveying and/or after non-human verification that the type of bulk material contained in the mobile bulk material container is the same type intended to be stored in the stationary bulk material container.
