In the last weeks Saval Tank Terminal Protection received orders for CF3I Rim Seal Fire Protection Systems despite the current crisis and economic situation.

Upon discussing with our customers, we learned that actual extreme low oil prices triggered an oil storage demand boom whereby end users rush to store crude oil rather than sell it at such extremely low prices.

This phenomenon in turn triggered a demand for tank fire protection systems which can be installed quickly to protect these storage tanks against rim seal fires.

The Saval CF3I rim seal fire protection system has proven to be an excellent solution for tank storage owners who are looking for reliable and robust solutions to protect their crude oil storage tanks quickly. As global storage tanks get overwhelmed with oil to be stored rather than sold at exceptionally low prices, as well as very low demand; the question of reliable safety for these storage tanks arises.

The Saval CF3I system with its combined detection and extinguishing capabilities, provides a fast solution to protect these tanks at a quick turn-around time. Unlike conventional systems, the CF3I system is modular in nature and can be installed on live tanks which are still in operation thus minimizing any downtime and maximizing operational efficiencies for owners.
