API Std 650 unanchored flat-bottom tank with flat bottoms

Cylindrical Oil storage tanks Discharge Pipes
When a discharge pipe is used on the outlet side of such relieving devices, its area shall be not less than the area of the valve outlet, or if a single pipe provides for discharge from several relief devices, its area shall be not less than the aggregate area of the valve outlets. The API Std 650 unanchored flat-bottom tank discharge pipe shall be fitted with an open drain to prevent water or other liquids from lodging in the discharge side of the valves.
Discharge pipes shall be supported so that no undue stress is placed on the valve body. Open discharges shall be placed and oriented so that the outflow is directed away from the tank and will not create a hazard over walkways, stairways, or operating platforms.The application of API 650 is as stated by the American Petroleum Institute: The production and installation of our ground welded steel API Std 650 unanchored flat-bottom tank storage tanks are generally used in industry; under normal circumstances, the storage tanks installed on the industrial site in the United States are in accordance with API 650, API 620 and API 12d Standards are established.In October 19th 2018, our Malaysia customer purchased 600 Tons CCS Grade AH36 mairne steel API Std 650 unanchored flat-bottom tank plates to use in their shipbuilding project .This customer is a famous shipyard company in Malaysia. Their company has the business scope of tourism, shipbuilding, transportation and so on. As a terminal manufacturer, they have strict requirements on quality for CCS Grade AH36 mairne steel plates. After visiting our steel milll, the customer is very satisfied with the quality of this batch of CCS Grade AH36 steel plates.The establishment of a correct method for evaluating the life of API Std 650 unanchored flat-bottom tank requires the preparation of criteria related to the strength and cracks of API Std 650 unanchored flat-bottom tank, mechanical damage mechanisms, corrosion mechanisms, and mathematical models of fatigue crack growth, etc., which are compiled into computer programs. In the process of programming the program, it is required to select the operating parameters, plates, reinforcement accessories, metal properties, corrosion levels, mechanical damage defects and other data of the oil storage tank under various conditions.If customers have any difficult problems during use of the steel materials, they can contact the company's after-sales service department to feedback the existing problems. The after-sales department will reply as soon as possible to ensure that each customer has a good after-sales experience. Under special circumstances, the after-sales service department will start the problem-solving process, and the engineers in charge of the area will quickly follow up to solve the problem.
