API standard 650 anchored tanks design considerations

Bearing on Foundations
Foundations shall preferably be designed to resist the load exerted by the API Standard 620 tank and its contents when the tank is filled with water to the design liquid level. Foundations shall be designed at least for the maximum operating conditions including the wind load. During the API standard 650 anchored tanks water test, the total load on the foundation shall not exceed 125% of the allowable loading. If necessary, the water level during the test may be reduced below the design liquid level line so as not to exceed the 25% maximum overload (see Q.8.1.2).

Since its inception, the company has always adhered to the development policy of "survival with quality, development with products, cooperation with credibility, and service with customers". I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to the old and new friends and customers who have always given care, support and help to the company! And sincerely hope to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with them, mutual benefit and common development.

Due to irregular operation of API standard 650 anchored tanks welding, there are many weld deformations during the construction process. Before specific operations, most construction units have formulated relatively complete construction plans and set up special welding process instructions, but the operators have not fully performed welding in accordance with various process guidance requirements and construction specifications, resulting in some quality problems of oil storage tanks. How can we reduce or even avoid this kind of situation?

Our company will set up a full-time service engineer for the project, who is responsible for the interface and coordination of technical support and after-sales service of the API standard 650 anchored tanks project. In response process of customer service center, in case of technical support and after-sales service demand, the user shall contact the full-time engineer of API standard 650 anchored tanks customer service center, and the technical personnel will give corresponding answers and on-site treatment according to the needs of users.
