You can keep track of the next tank inspection schedule by referring to the API 653 standard. API 653 standard serves as a guideline for tank facility owners and operators to carry out inspection services. Tank inspection is a highly specialized profession, and only trained and certified inspectors can conduct API tank testing. API 653 standard recommends that certified inspectors must conduct a formal external assessment in a five-year interval. The standard also talks about calculation-based checks on tank thickness. Risked-based inspections are another excellent tool for accessing corrosion rate and depreciation rate.
