Storage tank for liquid raw materials
LevelPoint Level
Overview
Oils and alkaline solutions are among the liquid raw materials for the mud mixtures. These additives are stored on the drilling platform in special storage tanks. To ensure the continuous production of drilling mud, the level of raw materials in the storage tanks must be exactly monitored.
