n: a type of thermometer used on oil tanks. The graduated part of the thermometer is angled at least 90ﾰ from the temperature-sensitive portion. The angle conforms to the shell of the tank and permits easy reading of the instrument.

n: the angle formed where the bottom and the side of the oil tank meet. usually nearly 9().

n: trade name for appratus for cleaning and freeing oil tanks of gas by means of high-pressure jets of hot water. It consistes essentially of opposed double nozzles, which rotate slowly about their horizontal and vertical axes and project two streams of hot water at a pressure of 175 psi (1,206 kilo pascals) against all inside surfaces of the deck, bulkheads, and shell plating.

n: the empty space between two bulkheads that separates two adjacent compartments. It is designed to isolate the two compartments from each other, thereby preventing the liquid contents of one compartment from entering the other in the event of the failure of the bulkhead of one to retain its tightness. In oil tankers, cargo spaces are always isolated from the rest of the ship by cofferdams fitted at both ends of the tank body.

n: the epuippment which is far away the well head and control the blowout preventer stack directely,consist of pump,energy accumulator,valve,and oil tank

v: to measure and record the dimensions of oil tanks to prepare tank tables (gauging tables) for determining accurately the volume of oil in a tank at any measured depth.

measure the fluid level in a storage tank.

n: an extension of the suction line that pivots vertically inside an oil tank. It allows an operator to withdraw product from varying heights in the tank.
