Services
Tank cleaning
Tanktrucks, tank containers and bulk lorries are cleaned in our tank wash by means of tank washing heads suspended through manholes at the top of the tank. Next, hot air is blown into the tank to ensure it is delivered dry. High-pressure flushing and suction vehicles can be cleaned via the rear hatch by means of a hydraulically driven lance with a special tank washing head.
Oil and Gas Industry
We have a special workshop for drill pipes, casings and tubings from the oil and gas industry or for clogged groundwater pipes, for instance. A lance can be used to clean the interior and exterior of the pipes. Even drill pipes that have become clogged solid with cement are no match for our 2.500-bar high-pressure unit.
Surface Treatment
Oakite has many years’ experience with pickling stainless steel and aluminium. We have a pickling basin of 4 x 2.5 x 1.5 metres in which materials can be fully submerged. Materials that are too large for the basin can be treated by means of spray pickling in a special hall with a floor covered with acid-proof plastic. After pickling, the materials are demineralised with a high-pressure spraying pistol and then passivated by exposure to air.
Mobile Storage Tanks, Vessels, Boilers and IBCs
We clean mobile storage tanks, vessels, boilers et cetera at our spraying site, using special tank washing heads, lances and high-pressure flexible jet hoses. To clean the interior of large tanks, our cleaners enter them, wearing respiratory protection gear and using other safety measures. Our employees have been specifically trained for this. You can also hand in dirty IBCs to us, and we offer them clean for reuse.
