API 650 ground-supported liquid storage tanks joints
Qualifications of API 620 storage tanks ExaminersExaminers for tanks constructed according to the rules in this standard shall have had not less than 5 years experience in design, construction, maintenance and/or repair, or in the responsible supervision of the construction, maintenance and/or repair of various types of unfired pressure vessels and/or API 650 ground-supported liquid storage tanks tanks, including at least 1 year of experience in the construction or supervision of the construction of vessels or tanks by fusion welding. Satisfactory completion of a suitable course of training approved by the Purchaser or the Purchaser’s agent may be substituted for 3 of the 5 years experience. However, training cannot replace more than 6 months of the required experience on fusion-welding construction.
The inner layer of API 650 tank is the same as that of single layer tank. It is made of high-quality steel plate in strict accordance with the standard of "steel welded atmospheric pressure vessel". The thickness of API 650 ground-supported liquid storage tanks steel plate reaches the standard and the service life is longer.
The Indian customer purchased our A516 Gr 70 pressure vessel steel plates to make tanks. They have very strict requirement for raw materials quality. For the A516 Gr 70 pressure vessel steel plates, they asked for Normalizing, 0℃ impact, A578 UT test, PWHT and so on tests, our Q/C department witness the production process with the technician from the customer company together. Meanwhile, we arrange BV inspection to check the quantity, spray mark, stamp on the A516 Gr 70 pressure vessel steel plates, and so on.
}Usually, the soil resistance of the foundation should be considered before the design and construction of API 650 ground-supported liquid storage tanks. The soil endurance in the API 650 ground-supported liquid storage tanks construction area plays a decisive role in the basic cost of the tank. In areas with high soil resistance, not only the cost of foundation treatment can be greatly reduced, but also the ratio of height to diameter of storage tank can be obtained. Therefore, the investment cost of the API 650 ground-supported liquid storage tanks can be greatly saved in the area with large soil resistance.
