oil storage
Crude holding facility
Oil storage refers to facilities and systems for holding petroleum products—tanks, terminals, and underground caverns where crude oil or refined fuels are kept before distribution or use.
Strategic oil storage serves as national reserves against supply disruptions: The government released oil from strategic storage to stabilize prices.
The term also covers smaller-scale containers for heating oil or vehicle fuel.
