Project Updates: 36 Acre Tank Farm<br />
Seaport Canaveral, Florida USA<br />
This project represents the single largest<br />
investment in Port Canaveral history: 24<br />
storage tanks for a new fuel terminal. CB&I<br />
was chosen by Seaport Canaveral LLC to<br />
engineer, fabricate and construct this 36-acre<br />
tank farm, which will hold 2.8 million barrels<br />
of petroleum products, including gasoline,<br />
diesel, and jet fuel (see chart below).<br />
Central Florida’s population has been growing<br />
at rates between 2 and 5%, which has<br />
increased the need for transportation fuels<br />
for tourism and coastal watercraft activities.<br />
The threat of hurricanes has also increased<br />
the need for fuel storage in this area to<br />
provide a backup supply of fuel to minimize<br />
the impact of natural disasters. The tank farm<br />
is conveniently located in the northern part<br />
of Port Canaveral, at the intersection of major<br />
transportation arteries to reduce transport-toend-market<br />
costs.<br />
Tank construction was completed in August<br />
2009, five months ahead of schedule, despite<br />
two hurricanes that disrupted field operations<br />
during initial construction.<br />
