Hydraulic fracturing (fracking) tanks for oil-well drilling operations were purchased for more than $5 million by a leasing company for use in Alaska and other northern states. The tanks were intended to transport drilling fluids and store liquids. The tank manufacturer warranted that the tanks met all regulatory requirements. The author, who confirmed that the tank welds did not comply with industry standards or satisfy regulations, investigated and reported that the leaking welds were defective, and the tanks did not comply with Environmental Protection Agency requirements.
