tank farms
Petroleum holding facilities
A tank farm is an industrial facility where multiple large storage tanks are grouped together, typically holding petroleum, chemicals, or other liquids.
The tanks are arranged in clusters with containment berms, piping systems, and safety equipment.
Tank farms serve as distribution hubs near refineries, ports, or pipeline terminals: The explosion at the tank farm sent smoke visible for miles.
