API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks annular bottom plate thickness

The API Std 650 standard published by the American Petroleum Institute (API) is designed to provide the petroleum industry with welded steel tanks for use in the API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks storage of petroleum products and other liquid products commonly handled and stored by the various branches of the petroleum industry.

API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks, Vertical oil storage tank is an important equipment for many enterprises to carry out production, which provides important support and help for the storage of many reagents. Vertical storage tank is generally used as atmospheric pressure vessel. Advantages: the filling rate of cylindrical structure is second to that of spherical tank, and the largest volume of the storage tank can be made into tens of thousands of cubic meters. The structure is simple and the construction requirements are relatively low.

Investigation of Subgrade
On actual steel storage tank sites to be used, test borings or test pits, or both, may be made at the direction of a competent engineer who will specify the number and location. They need not be equally spaced but should be laid out to uncover possible weak spots.
In general, test loadings of subgrade at the bottom of test pits need be resorted to only when such heavy loading as may be imposed by footings for major column supports for spheres or similarly elevated API 620 low-pressure tanks is specified. Results may be deceptive if average load-bearing capacity over a considerable area is wanted. All field data shall be recorded with maps, and copies shall be supplied to all engineers concerned with design, erection, and later operation.

The company has a mature technical team whose reponsibility is to design the drawing, choose suitable material and evaluate the whole production processaccording to customers’ requirement. The company is led by talents and technology, and comprehensively promotes its six business segments like steel material supply, precision steel casting, environmental protection equipment, household appliance, API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks steel structures and oil tank projects. Seeking new developments in new technology and business areas, and fostering a large number of industry-leading, international-level projects.

In the process of API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks steel transportation, enterprises often use railway transportation, highway transportation, water transportation and other ways to transport. According to the cargo owner's requirements on the timeliness of the goods and the different transportation routes, our company will choose API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks different modes of transportation. According to the specific needs of customers, or specify the mode of transportation.
