Improve pre-entry knowledge
Gather an initial view of internal conditions and identify areas that need closer attention.
Tank inspection drone
Inspect enclosed tanks with a remote first look.
COAX is being developed to collect close-range inspection data inside tanks and process assets where access is limited, visibility is poor and GNSS is unavailable.

Visual evidence before closer intervention
Tank inspections involve access planning, internal geometry and site-specific hazards. A compact drone can support an initial visual assessment of walls, roofs, supports and fittings before teams decide where direct testing or repair work is required.
Tank inspection drone
Why inspect a tank remotely?
Observe elevated surfaces
Capture imagery of roofs, supports, joints and fittings that may be difficult to view from the floor.
Preserve inspection context
Link observations with their visual evidence and carry them into a structured report.
Use cases
Tank and vessel inspection areas
Pilot feasibility depends on cleanliness, atmosphere, dimensions, internal obstacles and site procedures.
- Storage tanks and silos
- Process vessels and enclosed chambers
- Internal roofs, supports and fittings
- Pre-maintenance visual assessment
COAX + RevSight
Build the pilot around the vessel
Internal conditions and site safety requirements determine the inspection method.
Qualify
Confirm dimensions, atmosphere, cleanliness, obstacles, access and the site operating procedure.
Observe
Capture the agreed internal surfaces and areas of interest from suitable viewpoints.
Report
Review the material, document visible findings and identify areas for further testing.
FAQ
Tank drone inspection FAQ
Can a drone eliminate tank entry completely?
Not in every case. It can support an initial visual assessment and reduce unnecessary access, while specialist measurements or repairs may still require controlled entry.
Can COAX inspect the inside of a metal tank without GPS?
COAX is designed for enclosed, GNSS-denied assets. Pilot feasibility still depends on internal geometry, atmosphere, contamination and site rules.
What should be defined before a pilot?
Useful inputs include tank dimensions, access opening, internal structures, cleanliness, atmosphere, target surfaces and required inspection outputs.
