The Tank Farm is a small building that has an inventory, which allows products to be stored in it at high volumes. Its purpose is to store low-density fluids and gases.
Icon | Product | Amount |
---|---|---|
Cement | 200t | |
Steel Beam | 50t | |
Steel Sheet | 50t | |
Stainless Steel Sheet | 200t | |
Fluids Automation Module | 2 |
The Tank Farm requires a nominal 20 real-life hours to construct. Bonuses and penalties can increase or decrease this time.

Send Here (P2P) | Send products via surface transport from another origin inventory somewhere else to this Tank Farm. The active Crew must own the origin inventory, and this Tank Farm must not be owned by any of your Crews. A SWAY price may be selected that the owner of this Tank Farm will need to pay if they want to accept the transfer. | |
Deconstruct | Deconstruct the Tank Farm. A Tank Farm construction site is created and 90%+ of the construction supplies are returned. |
The Tank Farm inventory’s maximum product capacity is the following:
This ratio is optimised for storage of hydrogen propellant, which is the second less dense product it can store. It means that filling the tank farm with hydrogen propellant will reach both the mass and the volume maxiumum capacity. The only product less dense than hydrogen propellant is hydrogen, which will be limited by the maxiumum volume. All other products are limited by the maximum mass.
It is important to note that the tank farm also accepts tnungsten and silica powders, which makes it perfect to hold hydrogen propellant production inputs.
This the the list of products that can be stored in the tank farm:
