ENGINEERED FOR AVIATION

Purpose-Built for Jet A1 & Aviation Fuel Storage

Aviation fuel demands a higher standard of containment, purity and handling than standard diesel or petrol. Petrobuild’s aviation fuel tanks are purpose-engineered to meet those demands — with stainless steel primary tanks, floating suction and dedicated fuel quality systems.

Available in six container-size models from T12 to T75, these self-bunded tanks are deployed at airstrips, mining aviation facilities, remote exploration sites and fuel farm operations across Africa.

Primary Tank

SS304 Stainless Steel

Full tank and pipework in 304-grade stainless

Outer Tank

Standard Equipment

Built-In Aviation-Grade Features

Every Petrobuild aviation tank ships with these critical systems fitted as standard — no extras, no compromise.

SS304 Primary Tank & Pipework

The full inner tank and all pipework are fabricated in 304-grade stainless steel — critical for aviation fuel purity. Prevents corrosion contamination of Jet A1 and aviation gasoline.

Floating Suction

Draws fuel from just below the surface — keeping the suction point away from water, sediment and particulates that settle at the bottom. Essential for aviation fuel quality assurance.

Sampling Cabinet

Dedicated fuel quality sampling station allows operators to test fuel clarity, colour and water content before dispensing. Supports pre-flight quality checks and fuel release protocols.

Lockable Pump Bay

Enclosed and lockable pump bay protects dispensing equipment from weather, dust and unauthorised access — critical for airstrip security and unattended fuel storage locations.

5-Year Warranty on Construction

Every Petrobuild aviation tank is backed by a comprehensive 5-year construction warranty.
