API 650 welded steel storage tanks shell attachments and tank appurtenances

Fabricated to API standard 650 Welded Tanks for Oil Storage Shop Assembled API 650 welded steel storage tanks Storage Tanks, these tanks are commonly used at oil and natural gas terminals, API 650 welded steel storage tanks processing plants, and midstream facilities located along pipelines at the pumping, compression, or metering stations. API 650 storage tanks are designed and fabricated considering operating pressures up to 2.5 PSIG, corrosion allowance, wind loading, and seismicity.

The factors that affect the "small breathing" loss of API 650 welded steel storage tanks are: 1. Generally, the larger the storage tank is, the larger the total open area is, the larger the evaporation area is, and the greater the "small breathing" loss is; conversely, the smaller the storage tank is, the smaller the evaporation area is and the smaller the "small breathing" loss is. 2. It is related to the atmosphere. The lower the atmospheric pressure is, the greater the "small breathing" loss is; otherwise, the loss is reduced.

Suggested Practice Regarding Installation of Low-pressure Storage Tanks
Access: All openings and accessories for tanks API 650 welded steel storage tanks constructed according to this standard shall be installed so that any periodic inspections required can be readily made.
Corrosion: When a tank bottom rests directly on the ground, a survey shall be made to establish the need for cathodic protection.
Drainage: All tanks in which water might accumulate under the hydrocarbon contents shall be provided with adequate drains that are suitably protected from freezing.

As an experienced world class steel materials supplier and exporter, logistics and fast delivery is a crucial step to us. Our logistics department and shipping department take the responsiblity to allocate and transport steel materials from our mill and warehouse to customer port or designated destination. The cooperation of the two departemts are excellent and that powerfully support our fast delivery, and strive for shorter time for customers to receive steel materials.

The company's logistics adopts the method of cooperation with logistics companies. As a third-party logistics company is engaged in the operation of multiple logistics projects, it can integrate various logistics resources, making the logistics operation cost relatively low and the logistics operations more efficient. Thus we can provide more professional logistics services, while also focusing on our core business of steel materials.
