The Tank of the Year contest, a national water storage tank competition presented by Tnemec Co. Inc., has come to an end and the annual title has been awarded to Midland, TX. Rising out of the Permian Basin area in western Texas, which produces one-fifth of the nation's total petroleum and natural gas output, Midland's two-million-gallon composite elevated tank features a logo that highlights the community's spirit.
"This tank represents the community's energy and the surging Midland economy," said Doug Hansen, Director - Water Tank Market for Tnemec. "To help keep this tank shining for years to come, an advanced fluoropolymer coating system, featuring Series 700 HydroFlon, was selected to provide the exterior and logo with unprecedented color and gloss retention."
