The Cylingas gas tanks are part of the industrial complex of Cylingas, located in Al Quoz, United Arab Emirates.

For the installation of new gas tanks, Dextra supplied its tension rods systems, which were used for the cross-bracing of the tank footing structure. Carbon steel rods in Grade 355, with a diameter of 120 mm (thread M123), were selected for this application. The rods were delivered with forks, lock covers, and turnbuckles. A total of 48 sets were installed for this project.

The assemblies were fixed onto the pylons using gusset plates connected to the forks. Turnbuckles were installed in the lower part of the assembly to facilitate installation, allowing for length adjustment and stress control by bringing two bar segments closer together.
