According to the structure type of floating roof, floating roof API Std 650 petroleum storage tanks can be divided into internal floating roof tank and external floating roof storage tank. The internal floating roof tank is a floating roof tank with tank roof. The top is the combination of dome roof and floating roof, the external is dome roof, and the internal is floating roof. There is no vault on the top of the External floating roof tank, only a top plate floating with the storage liquid. The common feature of the inner floating roof tank and the outer floating roof tank is that both of them can reduce the evaporation loss of the storage liquid.

API Std 650 petroleum storage tanks Liquid Relief ValvesA tank, which is likely to operate completely filled with liquid, shall be equipped with one or more liquid relief valves at the top of the roof, unless otherwise protected against overpressure. When such valves are, in effect, supplementary relief devices, they may be set at a pressure not greater than 1.25 times the design pressure. Because the relief valve at the pump, which provides the inflow of liquid to the tank, is set at a pressure greater than 1.25 times the design pressure of any tank that may be built under these rules, provision should be made for preventing overfilling of the tank by a self-closing float valve, by some practicable pilot-valve control, or by any other proven device.
