INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION MEMBERSHIPS

Mesa maintains active memberships in all the major trade associations serving the needs and interests of the Aboveground Storage Tank industry. Through this participation in industry associations, Mesa is able to monitor changes in the industry, such as new industry regulations, standards, testing methods and approved specifications. The trade associations afford many opportunities for networking, which allows Mesa to offer solutions to those in need as new projects and plans develop at the various oil companies, refineries and liquid storage terminals. The trade associations are a major resource for technical information in the industry, which Mesa's engineers employ in the design of our quality AST product line. Each year, many of the associations hold events, workshops and conferences bringing decision makers together to propel the industry forward.
