Oil Patch Bits: Colville steps up to plate on ULSD

Colville’s new ultra-low sulphur diesel tank farm being built in Deadhorse this summer will have four 435,000-gallon tanks set in a concrete secondary containment. According to Colville exec Becky Gay, the tank farm was designed by LCMF. The ground work is being done by Peak, the tanks constructed by Rockford, and Roger Graff is doing the concrete work. “It is very substantial, and includes a tertiary containment design, which is the Best of the Best environmentally,” she said. Colville expects to fill the tanks by November.
