Tank Farm Management System – Megi Control Systems Pvt. Ltd.

MEGI's Tank Farm Management System (TFMS) is a comprehensive, integrated automation solution that unifies tank gauging, inventory management, loading operations, and safety systems into a single, centralized platform. Designed for petroleum, petrochemical, chemical, and LNG storage terminals, TFMS provides real-time visibility, control, and reporting across the entire tank farm, enabling operators to make faster, safer, and more accurate decisions.

By integrating field instruments such as servo tank gauges, radar level gauges, density meters, temperature sensors, and level switches with a supervisory host software, TFMS delivers a complete picture of every tank in the farm — level, temperature, density, volume, mass, and water bottom — updated continuously and available from a single control room screen.

Key Features

• Centralized, real-time monitoring of level, temperature, density, and volume across all tanks

• Integration with servo gauges, radar gauges, density meters, and thermometer interfaces

• Automatic tank inventory calculations with custody transfer accuracy

• High-high level alarm and interlock management for overfill protection

• Seamless communication via RS485 ModBus, HART, and other industrial protocols

• Integration with loading systems and batch controllers for end-to-end terminal automation

• Historical trending, reporting, and audit-ready data logging

• Scalable architecture — from a handful of tanks to a full-scale terminal
