API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks heat treatment of plates

In this project, an area of steel storage oil tank wall is constructed of ASTM A285, Grade C, steel plate that is 5/8-in. thick and has spot-radiographed, double-welded butt joints. The wall is subject to tension in a meridional direction and to compression in a latitudinal direction. The values of R1 and R2 at the point under consideration are 75 in. and 300 in. respectively. A corrosion allowance of 1/16 in. is required. The computed (meridional) tensile stress, stc, in the net thickness after deduction of the corrosion allowance is 6000 lbf/in.2.

This standard establishes minimum requirements for API 650 tank material, API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks design, fabrication, erection, and inspection for ertical. aboveground,closed- and open-top.

BBN steel had provided Grind plates for more than 15 years for widely applied in equipment, Engineer machinery etc. In 2018, one of our India customer visit our API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks office and work shop to discuss Q235B Grind plate technical request, they have strict surface and thickness tolerance, and they also request UT and MT for testing. As a result, they purchase API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks 179 tons as trial order for first cooperation. And have good comment on our quality. Till now, we keep exporting around 100 tons per month as regularly.

Deformation of the welding seam of the API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks is a common quality problem during the actual use of the API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks, which easily causes the tank body to leak and affects the safety of the oil storage tank. The welding seam deformation of the API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks is mainly caused by the lack of reserved welding seam gap and irregular operation. The oil storage tank has not reserved the corresponding weld gap, resulting in deeper root removal during the front welding activity. The heat output of the weld will increase under the influence of a long time, and the deformation of the weld will gradually become serious.

The after-sale service of iron and steel products includes after-sale tracking service, technical guidance, transfer of relevant bills, handling of objections and many other contents. The handling of quality objections accounts for a large proportion. When dealing with these problems, we should distinguish the responsibilities, and compensate or return the inconvenience or loss caused to users due to steel.
