It all depends on which specific product you are storing. All petrochemicals have different characteristics and are incompatible with different materials.

You should contact a local tank manufacturer and tell him your requirements.

More information is required:

  1. Exactly what product are you looking to store?
  2. Temperature and pressure of the product?
  3. Relative amount (gallons or litres)?

The answer ranges from a small fibreglass tank designed to an ASME code to a large steel tank constructed to API 650.
