Above-ground GRP diesel tanks for generators, farms and sites
Each diesel tank is made to order at the capacity and connections your site needs, with a nameplate showing capacity and fuel type.
- Above-ground storage
- Bund to suit the site
- Nameplate on every tank
- Delivery to every region
We reply within one working hour, Saturday to Thursday.
Who we build diesel tanks for
These are above-ground tanks for on-site storage. We do not build fuel-station tanks: the rules for new stations require them to install tanks below ground in a reinforced-concrete chamber with leak monitoring, which is outside our scope.
Tanks for other fuels are built on request, for uses other than fuel stations.
- Standby generators at buildings, compounds and facilities
- Farms and irrigation pumps
- Construction sites and labour camps
- Telecom towers and remote sites

Containment bund and nameplate
A bund holds any diesel that leaks from the tank or its connections so it does not reach the ground. Your site can build it around the tank; state what your specification calls for and we confirm in the quote what we will supply.
Many specifications ask for a bund holding 110% of the tank volume; your site engineer sets the figure for the project.
Each tank carries a nameplate stating its capacity and the fuel stored.
Connections to suit your generator or pump
Connections are placed at the positions and sizes the generator supplier or site engineer specifies, typically:
- Fill point with lockable cap
- Suction to the pump or generator, and a return line
- Vent
- Level gauge or level switches
- Drain and manway
- Earthing point
What stays with the site
Common sizes are in stock; other sizes take about a week, depending on the order. The factory guarantees the tank for 25 years from the invoice date against manufacturing defects, provided the installation guide is followed.
- A level, even base for the tank, and the bund if it is site-built.
- Separation from the generator and buildings, as the site engineer decides.
- Site inspection and any authority requirements, which rest with the facility owner.
- Shade where possible, since sun on the tank increases fuel evaporation.
Frequently asked questions
Do you build fuel-station tanks?
No. New stations need tanks below ground in a concrete chamber with leak monitoring. We build above-ground diesel tanks for on-site storage.
Can you supply a buried diesel tank?
We build diesel tanks for above-ground use only and do not supply buried fuel tanks.
What capacity does my generator need?
The generator supplier sets it from hourly consumption and the running hours between refills. Give us the capacity they recommend and we build it on one of our diameters.
Will a GRP diesel tank rust?
No. GRP does not rust, and it is lighter than steel to move and install.
Our consultant has specified a standard. What should we do?
Send the specification with your request and we will tell you clearly what we can and cannot provide before we quote.
Do you deliver to remote sites?
Yes, to every region of Saudi Arabia. Delivery and crane placement are priced in the quote, or you can collect from the factory.
