API 650 liquid storage tanks design internal pressure

API 650 is used to store products such as crude oil, gasoline, chemicals, and produced water. BBN has extensive experience in API 650 liquid storage tanks API 650 tanks with diameters between 8'-300', which are suitable for refineries, terminals, pipeline facilities and other projects.

Usually, the soil resistance of the foundation should be considered before the design and construction of API 650 liquid storage tanks. The soil endurance in the API 650 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 liquid storage tanks can be greatly saved in the area with large soil resistance.

API Standard 620 tank Appendix C describes the factors involved in obtaining adequate foundations for tanks that operate at atmospheric temperature. The foundations for refrigerated tanks are complicated because of the thermal movement of the tank, the insulation required for the bottom, the effects of foundation freezing and possible frost heaving, and the anchorage required to resist uplift. The services of a qualified foundation engineer are essential. Experience with tanks in the area may provide sufficient data, but normally a thorough investigation, including soil tests, would be required for proper design of the foundation.

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

BBN company is a modern enterprise integrating steel producing, warehousing and logistics, processing and distribution. We are committed to creating a "one-stop steel procurement service" platform. The main products are I-beam, angle steel, API 650 liquid storage tanks , H-beam, hot-rolled coil, welded pipe, spiral pipe seamless pipe and many other steel products. Standing stocks amount to more than 30,000 tons, and complete specifications, the company gradually moves towards large-scale distribution enterprises with serialized products, standardized services and modern transportation management.
