Floating roof repairs

Floating roofs are subjected to significant mechanical and cyclic stresses throughout their service life. Continuous filling and draining operations cause the roof to rise and fall with the stored product, leading to:

  • Repeated flexing and fatigue
  • Environmental exposure
  • Temperature fluctuations
  • Progressive coating degradation

Over time, these factors can result in cracking, corrosion, and ultimately product leakage.

At Icarus Composites, our engineered composite repair system is specifically designed to accommodate this movement.

Key performance benefits include:

  • Controlled flexibility to move with the floating roof
  • Effective leak sealing under dynamic conditions
  • Compatibility with filling, draining, and thermal expansion
  • Maintained structural integrity without restricting roof movement

The result is a durable, compliant repair solution that performs reliably throughout the operating cycle of the floating roof.

Shell deformation & localised corrosion

Floating roofs are subjected to significant mechanical and cyclic stresses throughout their service life. Continuous filling and draining operations cause the roof to rise and fall with the stored product, leading to:

  • Repeated flexing and fatigue
  • Environmental exposure
  • Temperature fluctuations
  • Progressive coating degradation

Over time, these factors can result in cracking, corrosion, and ultimately product leakage.

At Icarus Composites, our engineered composite repair system is specifically designed to accommodate this movement.

Key performance benefits include:

  • Controlled flexibility to move with the floating roof
  • Effective leak sealing under dynamic conditions
  • Compatibility with filling, draining, and thermal expansion
  • Maintained structural integrity without restricting roof movement

The result is a durable, compliant repair solution that performs reliably throughout the operating cycle of the floating roof.

Filling-Inlet and Drain Nozzle reinforcement & leak repair

Filling inlets and drain nozzles are subject to high localised stresses due to fluid impact, turbulence, vibration, and repeated operational cycling. These conditions, combined with corrosion and coating breakdown, can lead to:

  • Localised wall-thickness loss
  • Erosion–corrosion at inlet and outlet zones
  • Cracking at nozzle-to-shell interfaces
  • Leakage at welds, pads, and penetrations

If left unaddressed, degradation in these areas can compromise both containment integrity and tank operability.

At Icarus Composites, our engineered composite repair systems are designed to both seal active leaks and reinforce nozzle regions in accordance with ISO 24817 & ASME PCC-2 principles.

Key performance benefits include:

  • Structural reinforcement of nozzle-to-shell interfaces
  • Load redistribution around weakened or eroded areas
  • Effective sealing of leaking penetrations
  • Conformity to complex nozzle geometries
  • Corrosion protection for high-wear zones

Composite repairs offer a non-intrusive, hot-work-free solution that extends service life while maintaining operational continuity and compliance.

Stairway & Walkway structural reinforcement

Tank stairways and walkways are subject to continuous mechanical loading, vibration, and environmental exposure throughout their service life. Corrosive atmospheres, water ingress, and coating breakdown can lead to:

  • Section loss in beams, stringers, and supports
  • Localised corrosion at connections and fixings
  • Reduced load-bearing capacity
  • Increased safety and access risks for personnel

If not addressed, deterioration of access structures can compromise structural integrity, compliance, and safe operation.

At Icarus Composites, our engineered composite reinforcement systems are designed to restore and enhance the load-carrying capacity of stairways and walkways without adding significant weight or requiring hot work.

Key performance benefits include:

  • Structural strengthening of corroded members
  • Load redistribution across weakened sections
  • Excellent conformity to complex steel profiles
  • Minimal added weight
  • Long-term corrosion protection

Composite reinforcement provides a non-intrusive, in-situ repair solution that improves structural performance while maintaining safe access and operational continuity.
