Question: Our company has a Heil Trailer crude oil tanker hauling only “sweet” product, but we are entering a new service area. Should we be concerned about corrosion caused by hauling crude oil with a small amount of H2S (under 150 ppm) in an unlined tank? Eric
Answer: We strongly recommend lining any tank hauling crude, even sweet. If they acidize frac the well, you will get some acid when you pull loads of crude afterward. It will lie on the bottom of the tank and can start pitting rapidly. We have seen this happen on several occasions. H2S mixed with water can start a problem quickly.
