SECURE Energy Services provides a unique cost-saving advantage for fluid storage with our patented Target Tank™, a dual containment fluid storage tank. The primary purpose of the industrial tank is to store oil-based drilling fluids on well sites during drilling operations. The Target Tank™ can also be utilized for other applications where dual containment is required, such as frac jobs or production workovers. SECURE currently has a fleet of over 360 Target Tanks available in Western Canada, with service centres in Grande Prairie, Edson, Rocky Mountain House and Fort St. John.
The Target Tank™ is approved by the Alberta Energy Regulator for on-site oil based fluid storage without a berm. In addition, the Target Tank™ meets the Alberta Energy Regulator storage requirements without the need for a dike when drilling or operating within 100m of a waterbody.
