Abstract A standpipe apparatus has a folding configuration which can be unfolded for replenishing industrial tankers and compactly folded down thereafter for transportation and relocation. When erected, an outlet conduit of the apparatus extends away from a base. When folded down, the outlet conduit may be compactly contained within the periphery of the base to aid transportation and storage. The present apparatus is especially suitable for being made from plastic so that the apparatus is lightweight and can be folded and unfolded by a single operator. The base of the apparatus itself may flood with water, thereby weighting down the apparatus during use to stably support the apparatus outlet conduit.
