Bushmans experience in the tank manufacturing industry is extensive – we started tank manufacturing in 1989. Since then we have continuously focused on quality, product development and customer service. The result is high performing industrial tanks at a quality second to none.
Bushmans supply storage tanks and other products to the mining and resource extraction industry, particularly to the oil and gas industry. Our comprehensive quality systems, design capabilities and documentation ensure we are able to meet the stringent requirements of the mining, resources, oil and gas industry.
Bushmans oil tanks and fuel tanks have been used extensively across Australia in resource extraction operations. Gas fields require the wide use of storage tanks throughout the whole gas extraction process. Tanks are required for storing oil, sludge, water, fuel, and chemicals used in the resource extraction process. A Bushman tank can be used as an oil tank, fuel storage tank, diesel storage tank, safety tank, sludge tank, settling tank and well tank.
Mine site and gas wells require adequate water and chemical storage if they are to keep the site safe from hazards. One of the design elements to consider when choosing which industrial tank is right for a process is the tank specific gravity (SG). A standard water tank has a specific gravity of 1 (SG1.0). Our industrial tanks come in specific gravities of 1.2, 1.5 and 2.0 (SG.1.2, SG1.5 and SG2.0) and if required, Bushmans can manufacture tanks with SG ratings above 2.
Bushmans are designing and manufacturing industrial and chemical storage tanks according to our customers’ individual requirements, and each site’s’ operational needs. Our tank capacity range between 1,000 litres to 46,400 litres. The tank range allows for flexibility and the tanks are offered as fully fitted or without fittings. These tanks make great oil storage containers and fuel storage tanks, and are also highly suitable as chemical and production tanks.
Our complete range of chemical and industrial tanks have been designed and manufactured for optimal performance, and at a level required by industry. The raw material used, Bushmans own development Sunsmart®, is protecting the tanks from the Australian climate, safeguarding the performance and longevity of the tanks.
Bushmans have developed Sunsmart® polyethylene raw material, an advanced generation linear material specifically designed for the Australian market. This material is used in our chemical and industrial tanks. Bushmans exclusively use superior quality raw materials for the entire tank. This quality focus provides the superior strength, longevity of product life and offers optimal resistance to any chemical stored. Bushmans range of industrial tanks are suitable for a range of applications and ideal for storage of water, oil and chemicals.
The result of Bushmans focus on quality raw materials and design are tough tanks. Our tanks are used extensively for storage in the mining, and resources industries. Bushman tanks are appropriate for water storage, oil storage, water treatment systems, cold water storage and a wide range of chemical storage, including ammonia, sodium hypochlorite, hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid, and many more chemicals.
