Hey, that’s cool information. Although, my point still stands: way too expensive to attach those caps in place.
Do you happen to have any idea how large that container might have been? I assume there’s no standardized sizes for containers like that…
if you look at google maps, then the tank that blew up is at 55.65279924653206, 37.810112426857245 and it was 45m in diameter. it wasn't a floating roof tank https://united24media.com/war-in-ukraine/xed-moscow-oil-refinery-after-ukrainian-drone-attacks-what-satellite-images-show-20018
That's the point you don't attach them in place. They have to move up and down, they basically float on the oil.
