Reasons Why Tank Leak Tests Fail:

Temperature instability – (temperature variations) of the product within the tank after a
delivery

is the most important and most common source of interference and failed leak

tests / false alarms

(a failure to detect real leaks can also result).

Temperature variation – of product within the tank (look at the hourly temperature data
on the leak test report and retest if the variation is more than a few tenths of a degree –
see Chapter 3).
