40ft diameter API Std 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks

API 650 petroleum storage tank basic knowledge, storage tank concept and use: API Std 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks storage equipment for storing crude oil, gasoline, kerosene, petroleum and various non-volatile chemicals, API 650 petroleum storage tank is a storage and transportation system facility, oil refining, chemical industry An important part of the device.

Design of Reinforcement for Single Openings in Tank Walls
The 20 in. x 29 in. obround manhole shown in Figure F-5 is located in solid plate in the sidewall of a cylindrical storage tank 45 ft in diameter in an area where the thickness of the wall plate, tw, is 1/2 in. No corrosion allowance is required. The total internal pressure, Pl + Pg, at the horizontal centerline of the opening is 27.5 lbf/in.2 gauge. The thickness of the wall plate, t, required by 5.10.3 for the latitudinal unit forces, T2, acting at this level is 0.485 in. The manhole neck is fabricated by welding from 3/8 in. plate. The materials in the API 620 tank wall, the manhole neck, and the reinforcing pad conform to ASTM A516 Grade 60. The joints in the welded steel storage oil tank wall and the longitudinal joint or joints in the manhole neck are double-welded butt joints, spot radiographed in accordance with 7.16 and 7.17.

When encountering heavy rain or continuous heavy rainfall, the safe operation of API Std 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks will be affected. For example: the API Std 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks is submerged, the oil unloading valve and the flame arrester valve are broken by water and the oil tank leaks. The oil tank area must do emergency work to prevent rainstorm to ensure the safety of the oil tank. Here are some safety protection measures for API Std 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks in heavy rain.

As we all know, steel pipes occupy more space in the process of transportation. If there is no good way of packing, the transportation cost for steel pipes will be a big expense. In view of this characteristic, our company is ingenious and adopts the nest package method to solve this problem perfectly. The premise of the nest package is that the diameters of the steel pipes are different, and the small diameter pipe is inserted in the large diameter pipe. This not only saves the volume, but also saves the transportation cost. It also reduces the loading and unloading workload by half, saves precious time, and enables customers to receive goods earlier.

As one of the large professional metallurgical manufacturers in China, the strength of the brand, quality assurance, professional after-sales. Every day we are making unremitting efforts to challenge higher quality API Std 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks products and more satisfactory services. Customer demand is our pursuit, and win customer satisfaction with quality. BBN after-sales team is responsible to solve the problem of technical support and quality, service complaints.
