API standard 650 ground supported flat-bottom tanks with flat bottoms

Proper use of API standard 650 ground supported flat-bottom tanks and precautions:
1. The API standard 650 ground supported flat-bottom tanks must be used within the safe height range;
2. Check before use to ensure that the safety valve and breathing valve are flexible and easy to use;
3. The explosion-proof and fire-proof safety measures for oil tanks are implemented effectively;
4. The oil level in the API standard 650 ground supported flat-bottom tanks should be accurately measured when receiving and delivering oil, so as to prevent overflow or empty;
5. In the process of receiving and sending oil, the flow rate of oil should be controlled, and it should not be too fast to avoid electrostatic accidents.

The design metal temperature of API standard 650 ground supported flat-bottom tanks each component exposed to the liquid or vapor being stored shall be the lower of the following:
a)The minimum temperature to which the tank contents will be refrigerated, including the effect of subcooling at reduced pressure.
b)The minimum metal temperature anticipated when the atmospheric temperature is below the refrigerated temperature (see 4.2.1). The effectiveness of the insulation in keeping the metal temperature above the expected minimum atmospheric temperature shall be considered.

API 650 can store oil, gas, chemical, water and biofuel for some of the most common tanks in the oil industry. API 650 can store contents at a lower pressure (maximum of 2 PSI) but at much higher temperature (-40 degrees F to 500 degrees F) than the standards of API standard 650 ground supported flat-bottom tanks. It can be any tank size.

We had a wonderful trip in Phuket Island, Thailand. At the end of 2019, in order to thank employees for their hard work for a year and enrich their lives, our company organized a pleasant trip to Phuket Island, Thailand. The tour lasted 6 days and 5 nights, and returned by plane on the evening of December 27. We took off in Zhengzhou at about 5 o'clock in the afternoon on the 22th December.
