API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank guide pole erection tolerance requirements

API 650 vertical tanks meet American Petroleum Industries (API) standards in design, material, fabrication, and testing of aboveground welded steel API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tankstorage tanks for use in industrial applications.

The water dissolved in the oil will be separated out from the oil stored in the API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank for a long time, and the acidic water layer will appear at the bottom of the API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank for a long time, which will accelerate the corrosion of the API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank and cause the wall thinning and even leakage. With the increase of service life, the API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank must be inspected and cleaned regularly to check the hidden danger.

Proof Tests for Establishing Allowable Working PressuresBecause pressures in liquid storage tanks built according to these rules vary quite markedly from the tops to the bottoms of the tanks, proof testing of these tanks presents problems not usually encountered in the construction of unfired pressure vessels–especially where the API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank parts under investigation are located near the bottoms of the tanks. The principal difficulty is devising a test or series of tests that will reliably establish the working pressure that can be permitted on the part of the unproven design without, at the same time, imposing hazardous conditions on other parts located at higher levels in the tank.

Customer service center has provided after-sales service for many large-scale information systems, and has accumulated rich working experience in the process of API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank service for many years. It can provide accurate, timely and high-quality support and service for users, which is well received by users.

The trend of international shipping development of large-scale ships and strategic joint ventures puts forward higher requirements for modern ports. Modern ports no longer use the general cargo throughput as a measure sign, and container throughput will become the main sign to measure the role and status of modern ports. The average container capacity in 2000 is 3200teu, and it is expected to be 5500teu in 2020.
