ABSTRACT:
A battery of reservoirs for storing fuel, gas, contaminants and/or fluids, including external means for structurally protecting the tanks and providing stability to protect the surrounding environment from fluid leaks. The external means comprise a plurality of two-tiered containers, each sealed off below and all around its sides by a wall the inner surface of which is covered by a membrane of a impermeable and chemically resistent material. A concrete lid seals each tank and has at least one orifice communicating with the load inlet of the corresponding tank. The walls of the container have at least one orifice through which a respective pipe passes for dispensing fuel and means for coupling slings for hoisting and lowering the container. Such coupling means are later used for attaching deadweights after installation. The tank inside the container is substantially spaced underneath and at its sides from said membrane by binder material which fills the space between the tank and the container up to a level which at least practically covers the tank. Moreover, the height of the container may be selected by varying the height of the wall of said upper stage. Methods for building and installing the battery specified above and replacing a tank are also disclosed.
