AUSTIN, Texas & FARMINGDALE, N.Y. -- Two major players in the U.S. underground storage tank (UST) services market are joining forces in an alliance to provide petroleum operators throughout the mid-Atlantic and northeastern United States with turnkey UST compliance, repair and maintenance and construction solutions. Tanknology Inc, the nation's largest provider of environmental compliance testing services for petroleum systems, and Tyree, one of the country's largest multi-dimensional petroleum and environmental services companies, have formalized an alliance to bring the services [image-nocss] of each company together to provide a complete compliance testing, maintenance and environmental services program for petroleum operators in the East.
Tanknology provides compliance testing and related services, including UST tank and line tests, Stage I and II vapor recovery system testing, cathodic protection services, PetroScope visual internal tank inspections, and much more. Tyree's business focuses on petroleum site investigations; tank, pump and related equipment maintenance services; emergency response and remedial programs; and site design and construction.
Richard Oswald, the president and COO of Tyree, said, "Tyree's expertise includes construction planning through site development, full petroleum-related maintenance services and site remediationin other words, handling the site issues that Tanknology uncovers. There is virtually no overlap in our services, which will greatly expand the value we each bring to our customers."
