Due to the growth of population, Ethiopia, the agricultural country with green forests, turns into the territory of the drought and water shortage. There are rivers and lakes in the country but the problem of water pollution is still serious. A lot of storage tanks are required for water cleaning. As the production industry is not very developed in the region and the income of the country’s economy is low, it is difficult to determine the volume of manufacturing of storage tanks in Ethiopia.

On the domestic market, for more than 15 years, Centerreservoirservice Company has been manufacturing steel tanks for different applications including water storage. We specialize in the construction of the individual reservoirs, and we take orders for the construction of large tank farms, storage tanks and other facilities, including a large number of metal containers. The large-scale construction is more time consuming and more complex than the construction of a pair of tanks. Though, on the other hand, the manufacturing of even one tank requires careful soil investigation, thorough preparatory work for the construction site equipment – pouring the foundation and the delivery of lifting machines, welding equipment, assembly tools and other things. If there is no electrical supply in the construction area, without the use of the generator unit the manufacturing of storage tanks in Ethiopia is impossible because the power supply is necessary at all stages of manufacturing and assembly, and, of course, in the process of tank operation. In case, if it is impossible to supply the electric power, it is necessary to build an independent power unit or provide the fuel generators. This decision has to be made by the customer. As for the preparatory work, the procedures are the same both for the installation of a single tank or for a dozen of tanks, just the volume of work will be different.

Centerreservoirservice Company manufactures tanks for different applications – for water, fuels, lubricants, chemicals, fertilizers and food liquids (oil, juice, wine, milk). They have similar construction technology but the details are different. The details are determined by the customer requirements and the specific character of the liquids stored.

It is difficult to predict the purpose of manufacturing of storage tanks in Ethiopia but as the main import commodities of this country are fuel and lubricants, the construction of oil storage tanks is rather relevant.
