Still defining the specification? Start with a technical review. If you have a purchase requirement, request a quote.
Start with your application and the details you know. If a size, rating or quantity is undecided, tell us what you need to confirm.
Connections & supply scope
Use the technical details below as a starting point. Include the required connections, interfaces and items to supply in your request so the offered configuration can be confirmed.
Information for product selection
Share what you know and mark anything undecided as “Not sure yet”. Partial information is enough to start a technical discussion.
View the project checklist
- Intended application and service environment
- Describe the duty and any operating conditions that affect selection.
- Dimensions, connections and material requirements
- Share a drawing or project specification if available.
- Quantity and required documents
- Include the items to supply and any applicable project standards or approvals.
For a quotation, also include the quantity, delivery destination and required delivery window. List project specifications and documents needed for your review.
Technical details
- Description
- Specifications
Large GRP storage tanks are fabricated on site by filament winding, jetting molding and contact molding, using fiberglass reinforcement and resin.
Dimensions and design conditions
Confirm the tank diameter, working volume, design pressure or vacuum, and operating temperature against a tank-specific drawing and datasheet. Ask IFGS to identify the applicable design conditions and document revision in the quotation.
On-site fabrication
Discuss the available working space, site access and installation sequence with IFGS. Request the proposed reinforcement and resin system, fabrication arrangement and design documentation for the project.
Information for an application review
For proposed oil storage, oilfield wastewater or chemical storage applications, provide the stored fluid, concentration, operating temperature and required working volume. Ask IFGS to confirm material compatibility and the conditions covered by the proposed design.
