Re-Gen Robotics - recognised leader in 100% no man entry tank cleaning

The company supports oil terminal operators to cope with the challenges of maintaining the integrity of their assets. In order to maximise the value of their tank cleaning services for a facility owner, they offer bespoke tank cleaning solutions that focus on minimising project costs, downtime, risk, and residual waste.

Their award-winning tank cleaning systems can tackle the most difficult and complex projects, any size of tank can be cleaned, including complex high-volume projects in tanks over 50 metres in diameter. The company has also been engaged to finish projects where other tank cleaning service providers have failed.

Re-Gen Robotics offers a one-stop shop for asset maintenance, utilising 100% no man entry robots to eradicate time spent by personnel cleaning tanks in hazardous environments. By deploying patented, state of the art technological equipment, they enhance safety, efficiency, and cost savings for our clients.

The team is highly trained, experienced, and focused on tank cleaning and waste minimisation. They understand the challenges clients face and can mobilise robots at short notice to carry out a cleans for any size or condition of tank, that are up to 80% faster than manned cleans.

Re-Gen Robotic offers the latest, most advanced no man entry cleaning technology. Their highly standardised and self-contained operation process means that the tank cleaning schedule is always very precise - so clients can reasonably estimate the downtime needed to clean their tanks. The process includes fixed costs, reduced paperwork and permits and no requirement for capital outlay, spading of tanks or standby rescue teams.

Re-Gen Robotics has now eliminated over 11,000 hours of CSE cleaning in tanks. Over 40 tanks including white oil, crude oil and distillate tanks have been completed for oil majors such as Shell, Valero, P66, Navigator Terminals and Exxon Mobil. Further contracts are ongoing, and the company is in talks with US terminal operators.

They are choosing Re-Gen Robotics’ tank cleaning service as their first and only choice because the company’s good industry practice and prudence is derived from operational experience that no other company can boast. Compared to anything else on the market, their tank cleaning solutions are risk free and far more efficient and economical.

The entire tank cleaning system can be set up in two hours, which is a fraction of the time required for human crews to prepare to enter a tank. Re-Gen Robotics’ tank cleaning robotic system is designed to gain access through a standard 600mm manway, using externally fitted hydraulic ramps.

The fully automated, highly mobile, remote-controlled combination of specially designed 3,500 PSI jetting water nozzles, powered by a high-pressure low flow pump and a powerful 4,800 c/m3 vacuum, plays a vital part in the cleaning process.

The robots are waterproof and can work fully submerged, they have the power to clean the largest oil tanks with minimum hassle. There is no human exposure to sludge or waste materials during the cleaning process. The entire tank cleaning operation is recorded on CCTV from the ATEX cameras and is made available to the client upon completion of the works. All files are date and time stamped to ensure the process is traceable for auditing purposes. A record of gas detection readings is also issued on completion of each vessel cleaning, produced by the onboard gas monitoring equipment. The intelligent onboard truck telemetry system collects data that can then be aggregated and analysed to optimise the process. The combination unit provides real time information on all key parameters and is accessible to clients.

Proven experience and success using the most advanced devices and techniques available allows Re-Gen Robotics to engineer and customise solutions for each client project to save time, improve productivity and meet their unique requirements.

Re-Gen Robotics is saving terminal operators millions of pounds and giving them a compelling reason to upgrade to their bespoke, 100% no man entry tank cleaning solutions.
