Horizontal Storage Tank is a solar storage facility operating at PT X. Due to the aging of the equipment and the limited availability of original design data, reverse engineering was required to recover design parameters and evaluate the tank's operational feasibility. This study aimed to determine the tank's geometry, materials, and pressure capacity based on actual field conditions and achievable volume. The methods used included visual verification, operational and environmental data collection, and mechanical analysis using PV Elite software in accordance with ASME Section VIII Division 1 and related standards. The analysis was conducted under various load combinations, including internal pressure, wind load, earthquake load, and hydrostatic conditions, to determine the minimum thickness and Maximum Allowable Working Pressure (MAWP). The results indicated that Horizontal Storage Tank 946-F-132 still meets engineering requirements and is considered operationally feasible at a design pressure of 7.03 kg/cm², with the lowest calculated MAWP of 18.11 kg/cm². The resulting liquid volume from this tank is 16,158.1 liters.
