South Midland Installations Ltd have been decommissioning petrol filling stations, as well as designing and building pumping systems for the automotive industry for the past 20 years. The systems meet with all current regulations for storing of inflammable products. We can:

Design and build for petroleum installations
Turn key packages
Bulk storage tanks
Above ground petrol storage tanks
Pumping stations
Pipe lines – single and double containment
Controls
Leak detection system
Line side dispensing equipment
Petrol and diesel dispensers with batch controls
Vapour recovery nozzle and coolant evacuation and fill adapter

 

Design and build for petroleum installations
Because we listen and work closely with our clients, our highly experienced team will design, install, and maintain facilities for motor car production plants, petrol forecourts, terminals and the chemical industries where standards in safety and reliability are paramount.

Turn key packages
We offer full turn key packages for the installation of above and below ground bulk storage tanks incorporating stage one vapour recovery. Double containment pipe lines with leak detection, pumping and batching equipment and dumping facilities are fitted with fully programmable control systems.  Highly specified packages can also include line side dispensing for petrol and diesel products, as well as methanol and biodisel.

Bulk storage tanks
Above and below ground tanks for bulk storage of all products including petrol and diesel are environmentally sound and include all leak detection systems. Vapour recovery facilities are incorporated and the installation includes tank contents gauges, high and low level detection alarms, and overfill devices.

Above ground petrol storage tanks
We can supply and install specially designed tanks for the storage of petrol above ground. Alternatively, we can upgrade your current storage facilities with FuelGuardTM. This method of storage is obviously cheaper to install with no excavation work and no more worries about ground contamination or suspected leakages. All tanks can be completed with monitoring in the same way as our bulk storage tanks, and they meet all safety requirements for primary/secondary containment and overfill protection.

Pumping stations
To ensure continuous efficient delivery of products from bulk storage to line side dispensing equipment, we can supply and install air operated diaphragm pumps. These pumps meet all current legislation for operating in flame-proof areas and are designed to be self-starting.

Pipe lines – single and double containment
We specialise in the supply and installation of double contained pipework, particularly for petrol and methanols. The product-carrying lines are of heavy-duty black carbon steel to API 5L dual certified and are welded throughout. They can also be in Duropipe® or, in certain case, stainless steel. Containment pipework is of medium-duty steel to BS 1387 and all lines are leak-detected and capable of dumping all product back to bulk storage in the event of an emergency.

Controls
We design, supply, and install all controls for tank content, high and low level alarms, water detection, leak detection, overfill devices, dump facilities, emergency stops, and stop and start. They are all housed in one, purpose-built cabinet to fit with clients requirements.

Leak detection system
We have designed the leak detection system to meet – and surpass – all health and safety requirements and is installed in numerous car production plants.

Line side dispensing equipment
We supply and install specially designed line side dispensing equipment to meet the customer’s requirements for brake vacuum testing and filling, coolant mixing and filling, gear box filling, engine oil filling, screen wash mixing and filling.

Petrol and diesel dispenser with batch control
We purposely designed petrol and diesel dispensers to be air operated and complete with vapour recovery and bar code reading facilities.

Vapour recovery nozzle and coolant evacuation and fill adapter
We supply this purposely designed stage two vapour recovery for use in confined spaces. The nozzle is designed to meet the requirement of production line petrol filling of motor vehicles giving line operators a safer, vapour-free environment.
