API 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks plate specifications

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.

In particular, the EU imports a large amount of iron ore from central and South America and Oceania, which are mainly transported by sea. The perfect port infrastructure makes the port operation cost of EU iron ore raw materials import relatively low. However, the API 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks steel transportation between EU Member States is mainly railway transportation, and the EU member states have established a very developed railway network and railway information infrastructure.

Operation points of sand blasting rust removal for metal storage tank, API 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks:
1. The equipment should be as close as possible to the workpiece to be processed, so as to reduce the pipeline length and pressure loss, avoid excessive pipeline wear, and facilitate the construction personnel to contact each other.
2. The jet pipe should be straight as much as possible to reduce the concentrated wear at the bend. The wear direction of the bend should be changed frequently to prolong the service life of the pipe.
3. Strictly control the process parameters.

From the order to the delivery, there are three quality inspections to ensure that the qualified rate of finished products is more than 100%. We promise that every order will be tracked in a timely manner to ensure that customers can receive goods safely and constantly listen to their opinions and suggestions, reflect on our own problems, and let customers feel at ease.
