Anchorage design for API standard 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks

Deformation of the welding seam of the API standard 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks is a common quality problem during the actual use of the API standard 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks, which easily causes the tank body to leak and affects the safety of the oil storage tank. The welding seam deformation of the API standard 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks is mainly caused by the lack of reserved welding seam gap and irregular operation. The oil storage tank has not reserved the corresponding weld gap, resulting in deeper root removal during the front welding activity. The heat output of the weld will increase under the influence of a long time, and the deformation of the weld will gradually become serious.

API 650 petroleum storage tanks are used for API standard 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks storage. API 650 petroleum storage tanks can be made of carbon steel, austenitic stainless steel and nickel alloy (only for low temperature). Welding API standard 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks certification is regulated by Section 10 of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). For API 650 petroleum storage tanks, non-destructive inspections are required, but third-party inspections are not required.

Our company is located in the Central Plains, Zhengzhou City, convenient transportation. There is the largest Xinzheng airport, welcome customers from all over the world to visit our company. Our factories are all located near the port. The logistics is very convenient, which can save the delivery time.

In addition to the requirements of API Standard 620 tank Appendix Q.8.1, the nameplate shall be attached to the tank at an accessible location if it is outside of any insulation or protective covering of the tank. The nameplate for the inner tank shall be located on the outer tank wall but shall refer to the inner tank. The nameplate, if any, for the outer tank of a double-wall tank shall be located adjacent to the nameplate or the inner tank and shall refer to the outer tank.
