Austin, TX-based Tanknology Inc., the world’s largest Underground Storage Tank (UST) environmental compliance services company, today announced CarterEnergy Corporation has selected the company as a Preferred Vendor for UST Compliance Services.

As a Preferred Vendor, Tanknology’s complete portfolio of UST environmental compliance services will be provided to Carter’s entire fuel distribution network, encompassing more than 700 sites across nine states in the central US. Key components of this program will include preferred customer pricing and support on all of Tanknology’s services.

“We are honored to have been selected by CarterEnergy as their UST compliance partner,” said Allen Porter, President and Chief Executive Officer of Tanknology. “CarterEnergy has been a dominant force in their markets for nearly 50 years, and a true pioneer of multi-branded fuels marketing. It’s a well-respected company with a strong portfolio of fuel retailing customers. We are excited about this opportunity to partner with their customers in the environmental compliance protection of their facilities.”

According to Jim Thomas, CarterEnergy’s Retail Support Manager, who heads up the Preferred Vendor Program, Tanknology was the ideal choice for CarterEnergy’s customers.

“Tanknology is, without question, the country’s leader in UST compliance services,” Thomas said. “They provide a total compliance solution for fuel operators, bringing value and affordability to the management of all the compliance issues related to a site. It’s an area of the business with extraordinary risk and a lot of complexity and there simply is not a company in the business that manages it all as effectively as Tanknology does. It’s a perfect fit for our customers and we are excited about the value this partnership will provide to them.”
