API Std 650 ground-supported liquid storage tanks level gauge
Standard Hydrostatic and Pneumatic TestsAfter erection is completed and stress relieving, radiographic examinations, or other similar operations, as may be required, are performed, each tank shall satisfactorily pass a series of hydrostatic and pneumatic tests as prescribed in 7.18.2 through 7.18.6. Whenever a solution film is specified in this section to be applied to welding, linseed oil or another equivalent material for disclosing air leakage may be substituted. In freezing weather, linseed oil or a similarly suitable material shall be used.The attachment welding around all openings and their reinforcements in the walls of the API 620 tank shall be examined by the magnetic-particle method both inside and outside the tank API Std 650 ground-supported liquid storage tanks. When the underside of a tank bottom rests directly on the tank grade (and is not accessible after erection), such examination of welding on the underside of the bottom and subsequent air testing may be omitted.This API 650 tank standard does not present orstablish a fixed series of allowable tank sizes: instead, it s intended to permit the purchaser to select whatever size API Std 650 ground-supported liquid storage tanks tank may best meet his needs.The Philiphine customer is our old customer, and they are engaged in offshore oilfield resources drilling projects. Thus they have regular steel demands. They ordered 1008 tons API 5L grade B ERW pipes and Q345B seamless pipes from us in April 2018. And told us that is a regular demand almost every two month. Since our first success cooperation, we have cooperated with each other regularly. And they also bring us new opportunities and signification in Philippians market.Corrosion of the API Std 650 ground-supported liquid storage tanks body caused by external conditions such as high temperature, rain, humidity, or inadequate anti-corrosion measures of the oil storage tank itself, the water-bearing deposits in the oil storage tank caused corrosion and perforation of the inner surface of the oil storage tank bottom plate. Defects fatigue cracks caused by stress, with the accumulation of time, the compressive strength of the API Std 650 ground-supported liquid storage tanks body decreases and corrosion cracks occur.Over the years, the company has strived for perfection, being well-received. By virtue of stable product performance, high-quality engineering effects and perfect service system, we have won the trust of many customers, and our engineering cases and after-sales service systems are spread all over the world. We regularly conduct quality tracking and return visits by phone and email, listen to customers' opinions, and continuously improve service quality.
