API 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks supporting legs

API 650 Application As described by the American Petroleum Institute, the fabrication and installation of our surface welded API 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks steel storage tanks is normally used in industrial applications. In general, our standards for industrial on-site installation of storage tanks are established according to API 650, API 620 and API 12D.

The preparatory work before the construction of the API 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks is an important part of the oil tank project. Material purchase preparation before the construction of the API 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks:
Before API 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks construction, all materials shall be purchased and prepared, and the specifications and quality of materials shall be inspected to see if they meet the construction operation requirements. Fire and rain proof measures should be taken when storing materials. Paint should be stored in a ventilated and dry place.

Shell Stiffening Rings for Tanks That Contain Liquid: Internal or external shell stiffening rings may be required to maintain roundness when the API 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks is subjected to wind, vacuum, or other specified loads. When stiffening rings are required, the stiffener-to-shell weld details shall be in accordance with Figure R-1 and R.3.5.2 through API Standard 620 R.3.5.5. Three-plate laps or butt-weld junctions in the tank bottom shall be not closer than 12 in. from each other and/or the butt-welds of the annular plate.

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 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks. After production, our QC department will conduct another inspection regarding to the steel quantity, dimension, mark and so on points before delivery.

In the process of API 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks steel transportation, enterprises often use railway transportation, highway transportation, water transportation and other ways to transport. According to the cargo owner's requirements on the timeliness of the goods and the different transportation routes, our company will choose API 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks different modes of transportation. According to the specific needs of customers, or specify the mode of transportation.
