API 5L grade X42 pipe API Std 650 cylindrical tanks
API Std 650 cylindrical tanks Pressure-relieving DevicesTanks shall be protected by automatic pressure-relieving devices that will prevent the pressure at the top of the tank from rising more than 10% above the maximum positive gauge pressure except as provided in API 620 standard 9.2.2.Where an additional hazard can be created by the exposure of the tank to accidental fire or another unexpected source of heat external to the tank, supplemental pressure-relieving devices shall be installed. These devices shall be capable of preventing the pressure from rising more than 20% above the maximum positive gauge pressure. A single pressure-relieving valve may be used if it satisfies the requirements of this paragraph and 9.2.1.
Structural features of API 650 double-layer oil tank: steel glass fiber reinforced plastic double-layer structure, special processing method is adopted between the API Std 650 cylindrical tanks internal steel shell and glass fiber reinforced plastic layer, so that a gap of 0.1 mm is created between the internal and external layers. Even if the API 650 oil storage tank leaks, it can ensure that the contained dangerous substances only flow in the gap, and will not immediately overflow the external environment.
In April 2018, our Philiphine customer purchased 1008 Tons API5L Gr.B ERW&Q345B SMLS pipe for offshore oil field resources drilling project. This is a regular demand almost two month, and we has been cooperated more than three times, totally around 2100 tons steel pipe since 2015 year.
}Generally, external environment corrosion should be considered before design and construction of API Std 650 cylindrical tanks and so on storage tanks. The corrosion on the outer surface of storage tank is often worse than that on the inner surface. Especially in the chemical industry area, there are often acid fog, alkali or salt dust in the atmosphere. These impurities form an active corrosive medium with dew or steam and oxygen in the atmosphere. The corrosion of the external environment of the storage tank shortens the maintenance period of the storage tank, even causes the storage tank to be scrapped in advance, which affects the normal operation of the storage and transportation.
The company conducts periodic and targeted training and guidance for after-sales service personnel. As the saying goes, "no one is perfect, no gold is red", to help after-sales service personnel improve service skills and correct service attitude. Carry out relevant technical training for after-sales service personnel, so that after-sales service practitioners have professional product knowledge.
