Overground Tanks Calibration

 Tank Calibration of Overground Tanks of 25K to 80K that I can say falls within the range of DOVER FS 3D laser scanner capability is really a challenge. Actually the scaffolding and its requirements, when specifically it goes to sites located inside PDO, OXY, DALEEL it becomes more complicated, maybe because they are not well familiar with the HSE conditions of 3D laser scanning. However, after an understanding atmosphere establishes they release some of the HSE rules that obstacle the 3D laser scanning of the tanks.   AlKhuwaimia Site Overground Tank (Visited on 4th Aug. 2025) This tank although it is 25K, its location has two issues; windy and there is a wall as you can see near to the tank. Height of scaffolding here must be 4 meter, in windy situation with the 3D laser scanner that is 3 meter installed over a 4 meter platform on the scaffolding creates a very risky situation. As you may know, high speed winds (more than 15 Km/hr) and rain are conditions that under them tan...
