Tank Storage CheckDue Diligence

About

Independent due diligence for the commodities that move the world

Tank Storage Check exists for one reason: commodity storage and refining transactions carry risks that are easy to overlook and expensive to discover too late. We verify the reality behind the deal.

Our story

Tank Storage Check was founded by commodity-trade and compliance professionals who had seen the same pattern repeat: a counterparty offers attractive storage or refining capacity, the paperwork looks plausible, and the deal closes — only for the physical or legal reality to diverge from what was represented.

Tank farms and refineries are opaque by nature. Title is layered, condition is hard to inspect remotely, and operational history is often selectively disclosed. We built a practice that closes that information gap with structured, evidence-based investigation.

Today we work with trading houses, lenders, insurers, and corporate buyers who need to confirm storage integrity, ownership, and operational risk before they commit capital. Every engagement is independent, confidential, and delivered as a referenced findings report.

Who we work with

  • Commodity trading houses
  • Banks & trade finance lenders
  • Insurers & reinsurers
  • Corporate acquirers & JV partners
  • Law firms advising on storage transactions

What we stand for

Principles that shape every engagement

Independence above all

We are paid only by our clients — never by storage providers, sellers, or counterparties. Our incentives stay aligned with yours.

Evidence over opinion

Every conclusion is traced back to documents, registries, and on-the-ground verification. You see the proof, not just the verdict.

Clarity for non-specialists

Reports are written so your legal, finance, and compliance teams can act — with risk ratings and plain-language summaries up front.
