220ft diameter API Std 650 aluminum storage tanks

When talking about our team, it is hard not to mention our QC department (Quality Control). We have built strict qualitycontrol system to guarantee the steel quality. During the steel materials production, we have strict monitoring measures and indicators, and ensure no chemical composition, mechnical properties and so on technical problems for the steel materials API Std 650 aluminum storage tanks. After production, our QC department will conduct another inspection regarding to the steel quantity, dimension, mark and so on points before delivery.

The factors that affect the "small breathing" loss of API Std 650 aluminum storage tanks are: 1. Generally, the larger the storage tank is, the larger the total open area is, the larger the evaporation area is, and the greater the "small breathing" loss is; conversely, the smaller the storage tank is, the smaller the evaporation area is and the smaller the "small breathing" loss is. 2. It is related to the atmosphere. The lower the atmospheric pressure is, the greater the "small breathing" loss is; otherwise, the loss is reduced.

Welding of API 620 Steel Storage Tank Primary Components
The following primary components shall be joined with double butt-welds that have complete penetration and complete fusion except as noted:
Longitudinal and circumferential shell joints and joints that connect the annular bottom plates together. When approved by API Std 650 aluminum storage tanks Purchaser, these may be welded from a single side provided temporary non-fusible backing is used with complete penetration and complete fusion. Both sides of the joint shall be 100% visually examined as specified in 7.15.5.
