API standard 650 flat-bottom oil storage tanks piping and forgings

API 650 internal floating roof oil tank is a volatile liquid storage tank with a combination of a dome tank and an internal floating roof structure, which is a floating roof assembled under the dome of the API standard 650 flat-bottom oil storage tanks storage tank. The combination of the vault roof outside the API 650 storage tank and the floating roof inside the tank has been widely used in gasoline, aviation kerosene and more volatile chemical liquids.

Define the welding sequence of API standard 650 flat-bottom oil storage tanks bottom plate: the welding sequence of metal vertical storage tank shall be carried out according to the procedure required by the welding scheme. Spot welding shall be consistent with the formal welding requirements, and no spot welding shall be carried out for the weld not welded. Back bar should be added to prevent deformation when welding the full length seam of middle plate, butt joint of edge plate and turtle shell joint.

The hardness of the welds contacting these environments, including the heat-affected zones, shall be considered. The weld metal and adjacent heat-affected zone often contain a zone of hardness that is well in excess of a value of 22 on the Rockwell C scale and could be expected to be more susceptible to cracking than would unwelded metal. Any hardness criteria shall be a matter of agreement between the Purchaser and the API standard 650 flat-bottom oil storage tanks manufacturer and shall be based on an evaluation of the expected hydrogen sulfide concentration in the product, the possibility of moisture being present on the inside metal surface, and the strength and hardness characteristics of base metal and weld metal.

Considering the large workload of allocation and transportion for our steel materials, we have built special shipping department, and make it independent form transportation department. The transportation department is in charge of transporting steel materials from our mill and warehouse to the port, and our shipping department is in charge of the shipping matters. So that our whole shipping efficiency is improved, and shorten time for customers to receive goods.

Facing the new situation and facing new goals, the company revolves around the sixteen-character development policy of “prioritizing production preservation, society-oriented, market operation, and brand creation and efficiency”. Layout the country in accordance with the modern logistics model, and accelerate the establishment of a modern integrated steel enterprise integrating steel storage, transportation, processing, and distribution.
