API Std 650 anchored tanks seismic design

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

Due to the volatility of oil products, the volatile consumption of oil products is inevitable in the storage process of large oil storage tanks such as API Std 650 anchored tanks. The volatilization of oil causes economic losses and pollution to the environment. Especially in the open air environment, large-scale oil storage tanks in the petrochemical industry will continue to accumulate energy when exposed to the sun, causing their surface and interior to heat up rapidly, causing sun overheating, and accelerating the volatilization of oil. How to effectively reduce the volatile consumption of large oil storage tanks?

Insulation Load
For API 620 tanks designed and constructed with an outer tank containing loose fill insulation in the annular space between the tanks, the insulation weight shall be divided equally to the inner and outer tank wall for seismic lateral loads unless a more rigorous analysis is performed to determine the distribution. The insulation within the annular space shall not be used to calculate resistance to overturning. Insulation on the API Std 650 anchored tanks roof or suspended deck shall be applied to the tank supporting the load at the point or center of gravity of attachment and may be used to resist overturning.

When talking about our team, it is hard not to mention our QC department (Quality Control). We have built strict qualitycontrol system to guarantee the steel quality. During the steel materials production, we have strict monitoring measures and indicators, and ensure no chemical composition, mechnical properties and so on technical problems for the steel materials API Std 650 anchored tanks. After production, our QC department will conduct another inspection regarding to the steel quantity, dimension, mark and so on points before delivery.

The company's logistics uses third-party logistics. This logistics model plays an important role in improving the efficiency of our business operations. Third-party logistics is an important form of logistics specialization. As a company specializing in logistics, third-party logistics companies have a wealth of experts who specialize in logistics operations, which is conducive to ensuring the professional production of the company, reducing costs, and improving logistics level of the company. Both the customers and the company benefit from the logystics mode.
