Fire resistant tank apparatus is adapted for transportation and for installation above-ground to receive and dispense a liquid hydrocarbon or hydrocarbons, or the like, and includes a metallic tank having a lightweight wall structure, including an upright side wall or walls, a top wall and a bottom wall; first port structure on the top wall defining access porting to the tank interior; second support beneath the bottom wall to support the tank at an installation site; and fire resistant synthetic resinous material applied as a coating to the outer side or sides of the tank walls, and hardened to define a relatively lightweight shell enclosing the tank, the shell extending into adjacency with the first and second structures, the shell having thickness between about 1/4 inch and 1 inch.

The method of fabricating fire resistant tank apparatus adapted for transportation and for installation above-ground to receive and dispense a liquid hydrocarbon or hydrocarbons, includes providing a metallic tank assembly having lightweight wall means defining inner wall means, intermediate wall means and outer wall means, and spacing the wall means to form primary space between the intermediate wall means and the inner wall means, and secondary space between the intermediate wall means and the outer wall means; providing access porting to a tank interior defined by the assembly; a bottom wall defined by the assembly located to support the assembly at an installation side; and providing thermal barrier material in one of the first and second spaces to effectively define a shell about the tank interior. In addition, fire resistant material may be applied to the outer side or sides of the outer walls and hardened to define a relatively lightweight shell enclosing the tank assembly. The method provides structure that resists severe heat invasion in the form of radiation, convection and conduction to maintain liquid hydrocarbon in the innermost tank isolated from such invasion, the structure also being bullet resistant.

A safety tank apparatus is provided for installation to receive and store a liquid hydrocarbon or hydrocarbons, or the like, and from which the liquid may be withdrawn. It comprises tank structure including an inner metallic tank; an outer metallic tank protectively receiving the inner tank with accessible interior space laterally of the inner tank; a barrier wall between that interior space and the inner wall; an opening in the outer tank sidewall adjacent that interior space; and a closure closing the opening, the closure movable to expose the interior space to access from the exterior; and tank liquid flow control structure accessible through the side wall opening, for controlling filling of the liquid into the inner tank from the exterior of the safety apparatus, and for controlling liquid removal from the inner tank.
