3D Laser Scanning Fuel Tank Farm

Project info

What seems like a simple problem on the surface can involve taking come precise measurements for ordering parts. Take this tank farm augmentation project. No one wants to be fabricating pipes in a fuel storage area, therefore it’s best to design any new equipment so that it can be manufactured off site and brought in for installation. For that reason, 3D laser scanning was worth the cost. 

Client Description

This company is a small fabrication service that also does installation. 

Location

Jacksonville, North Carolina

Project Duration

Less than 1 day

Project Challenge

This project involved travel onto a military base, which is a challenge in itself. After meeting the requirements for access, there was another long journey to arrive at the final scan location. Thanks for the high mobility and portability of our scan solution, the travel measures were not a problem 

Reality Capture Solution

The tank farm was scanned with our workhorse, the Leica RTC360. Tanks, nozzles, pipes, pumps and all manner of equipment were scanned in short period of time, making this a partial day scan. The scan data was then transformed in to an as-built CAD  model for reference
