British Embassy Yangon, Myanmar – 3000 Litre Generator Feed Tank for Secure Critical Infrastructure
A Trusted Partner for Diplomatic Fuel Storage Solutions
Atlantis Tanks recently supported the Myanmar British Embassy fuel storage upgrade with the delivery of a 3000-litre generator feed tank and high-integrity fuel storage system. This project further strengthens our position as a reliable provider of robust generator fuel tanks for international government facilities worldwide.
In regions where local power grid reliability fluctuates, embassies depend on robust backup systems to maintain essential, round-the-clock operations. The British Embassy in Yangon required a turnkey engineering solution that would ensure secure, consistent access to fuel for their standby generators, safeguarding critical diplomatic services.
Atlantis Tanks brought its extensive global experience in designing and manufacturing high-performance generator feed tanks to develop a custom solution perfectly aligned with the embassy’s strict operational needs.
Precision-Engineered Fuel Tanks for Safety and Longevity
The core of the Myanmar British Embassy fuel infrastructure project involved the supply of a bespoke 3000-litre generator feed tank. This unit was custom-engineered to meet stringent international safety, environmental, and performance standards while ensuring seamless integration with the embassy’s existing standby generator infrastructure.
Tank Overview & Key Features:
- Industrial Compliance: The tank was manufactured in strict accordance with BS799 Part 5 standards, utilizing high-grade S275JR steel to guarantee maximum durability in demanding environments.
- Advanced Fuel Management: Key features include a lockable, top-mounted secure cabinet, an integrated fill and venting system, and a removable suction feed equipped with a foot valve and strainer to maintain long-term fuel quality.
- Operational Readiness: The system includes return and connection points for efficient operation, alongside a dedicated mounting plate for advanced telemetry gauge or alarm systems.
- Logistics & Mobility: For ease of on-site installation and handling, the unit is mounted on full-width structural steel bearers and equipped with heavy-duty lifting eyes for safe transport.
- Secondary Containment: The tank features a fully bunded construction. The outer tank provides secondary containment capable of holding 110% of the total stored liquid, ensuring total environmental protection and strict regulatory compliance.
Engineered for Harsh Tropical Environments
With Yangon’s notoriously hot, humid climate, this 3000L generator feed tank system required specialized engineering to prevent corrosion and ensure long-term, weather-proof reliability.
To protect the Myanmar British Embassy fuel supply against intense environmental wear, the structural steel underwent rigorous surface preparation and coating:
-
Surface Preparation: Cleaned thoroughly to ST2 standards.
-
Corrosion Resistance: Coated with a high-performance Zinfos 340WS anti-corrosive system.
-
Coating Profile: Optimized to a precise thickness of 150 microns wet / 75 microns dry.
-
Aesthetics: Finished in standard RAL 7015 Grey with a high-visibility RAL 2001 Orange cabinet door (custom colors are available upon request).
Backed by our industry-leading 10-year warranty, this backup power system provides long-term operational confidence, even under the most challenging tropical conditions.
