Underground tank (UST) cleaning
in North Macedonia

Underground tanks (UST – Underground Storage Tank) are among the most complex structures to clean. Restricted access (top entry only), potentially explosive atmospheres, limited room for the crew — all of this makes the job demanding. It takes experienced crews, specialized equipment and strict protocols.

EZO TEH specializes in UST cleaning. Our team is fully trained for the work, and we hold all the required certificates (ADR, ATEX), atmospheric monitoring equipment and dedicated equipment for confined-space work. We work with all types of UST.

We are especially experienced with petrol station USTs — typically 20,000-50,000 litres in capacity, with restricted access. We work night shifts or during planned maintenance. Every job follows full safety protocols, including a standby team at the surface.

Questions
we are asked most often

Why is a UST more complex than an AST?
Restricted access, less room for the crew, potentially hazardous atmospheres, limited ventilation.
How long does UST cleaning take?
A standard 20-50m³ UST at a petrol station — 1-2 days, including preparation, the work itself and video inspection.
Does the station have to close completely?
Usually not — we work in one zone while the rest of the station keeps operating. For critical phases we close part of the station.
What if the UST has cracks?
After cleaning — video inspection. If there are cracks, we recommend repairing or replacing the UST.
UST cleaning price?
Significantly higher than for an AST because of the complexity. Free assessment after a technical analysis.
