As global environmental regulations and industrial safety standards continue to tighten, diesel storage tank leakage monitoring has become a critical requirement for energy, petrochemical, power generation, and industrial infrastructure projects worldwide. Recently, OPS successfully shipped 9 sets of DSOD703 Oil Spill Detectors to an overseas project, designed specifically for early detection of diesel leakage in storage tank areas and associated drainage systems.
This shipment reflects the growing demand for automated oil spill detection solutions that enable real-time monitoring, rapid alarm response, and effective environmental risk mitigation.
Challenges in Diesel Storage Tank Leakage Detection
Diesel storage systems—including above-ground tanks, underground tanks, and bunded areas—face persistent risks of leakage caused by corrosion, aging infrastructure, valve failure, or operational errors. In many cases, diesel leaks are not immediately visible, especially when mixed with rainwater or accumulated in drainage pits.
Without continuous monitoring, even small diesel leaks can lead to:
- Soil and groundwater contamination
- Fire and explosion hazards
- Regulatory non-compliance and environmental penalties
- Increased maintenance and remediation costs
As a result, industrial operators are increasingly shifting from manual inspection to continuous online oil spill detection systems.
DSOD703 Oil Spill Detector: Designed for Oil Spill Monitoring
The DSOD703 Oil Spill Detector is a proven solution developed by OPS for industrial oil leakage detection applications, particularly for diesel, fuel oil, and other petroleum products.
Key technical advantages include:
- High-Sensitivity Oil-on-Water Detection
The DSOD703 accurately distinguishes diesel oil from water and detects oil films at an early stage, ensuring rapid alarm activation before leaks escalate.
- Real-Time Monitoring and Alarm Output
The detector supports industrial signal outputs, enabling seamless integration with PLC, DCS, and SCADA systems for centralized monitoring and automated alarm management.
- Industrial-Grade Construction
Built with corrosion-resistant materials, the DSOD703 is suitable for harsh environments such as tank farms, oily drainage systems, and high-humidity industrial zones.
- Low Maintenance and Long-Term Stability
With a robust sensing structure and minimal maintenance requirements, the detector is ideal for long-term deployment in overseas or unmanned facilities.
Typical Application Scenarios
In this overseas project, the DSOD703 Oil Spill Detectors are installed at key monitoring points, including:
- Diesel storage tank bunds and containment areas
- Oily water drainage pits and sumps
- Emergency discharge and rainwater collection systems
By providing continuous oil leakage monitoring, the system enables early warning and rapid response, significantly reducing environmental impact and safety risks.
