Construction

Off-site

Geldof’s off-site construction capabilities are centred around our state-of-the-art fabrication area, where we specialise in the production of storage tanks that can be seamlessly transported to client locations.

From the initial design phase to final inspections, we implement rigorous quality control measures to ensure each tank meets the highest standards of safety, durability, and performance.

Every step of the process undergoes thorough checks, and all tanks are tested and certified to comply with industry regulations, guaranteeing reliability and long-term value for our clients.

Our off-site construction supports tank volumes ranging from 10m³ to 8,000m³. For larger projects, we conduct on-site construction to meet specific requirements.

After construction, tanks can be customised with various finishes to enhance functionality and durability:

  • painting,
  • pickling,
  • passivating.

 

This off-site construction method streamlines the manufacturing process and reduces on-site assembly time, ensuring a quicker and more efficient deployment.

Once completed, the tanks are ready to be shipped directly from our facility to the client’s site.

Construction

On-site

We excel in on-site construction of large-scale storage tanks, with the ability to handle individual tank volumes over 100,000m³ and total capacities exceeding 1,000,000m³.

The process begins in our fully equipped fabrication facility, where each component is meticulously crafted to meet the highest quality standards.

Our stringent quality control measures ensure that every tank is built with precision, durability, and reliability, providing long-term performance even in the most demanding environments.

Our site operations are a powerhouse, equipped with advanced erection and assembly tools, and our team brings the expertise and technology to ensure precise and efficient construction. This allows us to deliver accurate results for every method used, including:

  • Advanced jacking techniques
  • Top-down construction
  • Simultaneous hydrotesting during wet construction
  • Traditional dry construction

 

In addition, our ability to deliver large-scale projects is supported by strategic partnerships and local subcontractors, allowing us to scale operations to meet specific client needs.

This combination of in-house expertise and collaborative strength ensures we can handle even the most demanding projects, delivering quality and reliability in every structure we build.

Don't lose your cool

Cold storage

Our refrigerated storage tanks are designed to meet the highest safety and efficiency standards. Equipped with advanced insulation systems, they securely store liquefied gases like nitrogen, oxygen, and other substances at extremely low temperatures. These systems maintain the integrity and quality of sensitive materials, even in the most demanding environments.

Constructed from high-grade materials to withstand extreme conditions, our tanks minimise boil-off and maximise efficiency. Whether for energy, medical, or industrial applications, Geldof’s cold storage tanks provide reliable, long-term performance, ensuring your operations run smoothly and safely.

Special design features

Double containment

Our double-walled storage tanks are engineered for industries where safety and environmental protection are critical. With an additional outer containment layer, these tanks provide a strong safeguard, ensuring that hazardous materials remain securely contained, even in the event of internal failure.

This dual-layer design protects the environment from potential leaks or spills and meets the strictest environmental standards, offering peace of mind. Whether handling chemicals, fuels, or other sensitive materials, our double-walled tanks deliver reliable performance while minimizing risk.

Floating roof design

Geldof’s floating roof storage tanks are designed for maximum safety and efficiency in handling volatile liquids. The floating roof adjusts with the liquid level, minimizing vapor space and significantly reducing evaporative losses. This helps protect the environment by cutting harmful emissions while offering more cost-effective storage.

Ideal for crude oil and volatile chemicals, our floating roof tanks ensure product integrity and regulatory compliance. With advanced sealing systems and precision engineering, they deliver reliable, sustainable performance, keeping your operations safe and efficient.
