The booklet is geared to licensed petroleum mechanics and experienced petroleum contracting professionals to use as a quick reference guide, and its recommendations have been established to meet, and in most cases exceed, all provincial and/or federal regulations. These guidelines cover the major components of petroleum work including storage tank installation and removal, piping and fittings, leak and spill prevention and confined space entry.

In addition, it contains a glossary of commonly used industry terms. The full-colour, diagram and photo-heavy handbook is meant as a reference, not a text-book, and offers step-by-step instructions on how to tackle tasks like verifying recommended slope for excavations, ensuring the proper storage tank handling, and executing pressure testing methods and tank purging methods.
