Concrete sealant from hydrocarbons

Concrete sealant from hydrocarbons

Concrete sealant from hydrocarbons

(OP)
I am working on a project that requires a floor drain/trough in the concrete pad.  I spoke with the Alberta EUB about it to make sure no leak detection or secondary contianment was required.  I was advise that it was not, as long as it was sealed.

Does anyone have any suggestions of what type of sealant could be used?  It will have to seal out water and hydrocarbons (blend oil).  I googled and found some industrial sealants, but was wondering if anyone else has been in this situation and if they have any advise.

Thanks
