Dynamic ATC’s offshore container is DNV 2-7.1 certified. Secured to the truck by ISO locks, the container lifts by crane or forklift, and it transitions seamlessly from land to sea. If insulated, the container serves as a tempered shelter when operating in sub-zero temperatures.

In various field applications, tanks must be cleaned regularly to avoid the build-up of solids and the cross-contamination of liquids while changing fluid systems. Traditionally, this “dirty job” was a manual tank cleaning operation. Field operators entered filthy tanks and risked their health and safety by potential exposure to harmful liquids and gases.
In the early 90s, directional and rotary nozzles changed the systematic approach for cleaning tanks. These nozzles are commonly referred to as Tank Cleaning Machines (TCMs).
The ATC unit we use today was initially designed by engineers from ECOS. The ECOS has more than 30 years of experience in tank cleaning technology.
How does Dynamic-ATC work?
The ATC automates the time-consuming and labour-intensive task of cleaning tanks. In conjunction with optimally positioned flushing nozzles, It safely cleans tanks in a fraction of the time compared to a manual tank cleaning crew.
The ATC uses a fixed volume of cleaning water which is continuously recycled. When the tank is thoroughly cleaned, the waste is dumped into another container close to the unit for safe disposal.
This same “fixed” volume of cleaning water is later reused to clean other tanks. Hence a tiny volume of waste is generated during the whole operation.
The ATC is equipped with an internal soap tank and automatic dosing system. This, combined with water heating capabilities, significantly reduces cleaning time and dramatically improves cleaning results.
DYNAMIC ATC – HOW IT WORKS
Technical Information
The ATC is installed inside a standard ISO container. Our unit can be transported by forklift, crane, or by most container trucks or trailers. It can be operated from nearly any truck chassis with a PTO (Power Take-Out) if the weight capacity and power supply are adequate.
This high degree of mobility supports most tank cleaning operations for land installations, mud plants or supply boats dockside. It can enable cleaning for almost any tank the truck can access, as ATC truck installations work separately or in conjunction with a vacuum truck.

We perform all manufacturing processes in the Dynamic workshop in Norway. We use the top qualified and evaluated suppliers to deliver the highest quality materials and overall product. All materials inside the container are stainless steel.
Moreover, a minor operational area (2,9 m x 4,3 m) and access to only one short side of the container are required to operate the Dynamic ATC unit.
