API standard 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks restrictions on joints

The cleanliness of the API standard 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks has a great influence on the safety of the tank and the quality of the oil stored. Keeping the API standard 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks clean can slow down the corrosion of the tank wall and reduce the pollution to the oil. If the inside of the API standard 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks is not cleaned all the year round, a lot of rust and metal impurities will be produced in the tank. These impurities will cause the oil to slowly oxidize and deteriorate. The impurities mixed into the oil will also block the filter and oil circuit, causing oil supply failure.

Shell Stiffening Rings for Tanks That Contain Liquid
Internal or external shell stiffening rings may be required to maintain roundness when the tank is subjected to wind, vacuum, or other specified loads. When API standard 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks stiffening rings are required, the stiffener-to-shell weld details shall be in accordance with Figure Q-1 and Q.3.5.2 through Q.3.5.5.
Three-plate laps or butt-weld junctions in tank bottoms shall be not closer than 12 in. from each other or from the butt-welds of the annular plates.
Bottom plates, other than annular bottom plates for a 9% or 5% nickel steel or stainless steel tank that contains liquid, may have a minimum thickness of 3/16 in. exclusive of any specified corrosion allowance.

Floating roof is the key component of floating roof API 650 storage tank, which can be divided into external floating roof and internal API standard 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks floating roof. The internal floating roof has a fixed top cover above the floating roof, which can prevent the floating roof from being exposed to wind and rain, and ensure the quality of oil stored under API 650 storage tank.
