ASTM A420 pipe API Std 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks

API 650 petroleum storage tank body design is mainly the design of tank bottom, API Std 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks tank top and tank wall, and the design of tank wall is particularly important. As the main pressure bearing part of API 650 petroleum storage tank, the tank wall bears loads including liquid pressure, wind pressure, seismic load, opening stress, etc. The calculation of such loads is explained in detail in various API Std 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks storage tank design standards. But in addition, the API 650 petroleum storage tank wall also bears the push-pull force and torque of the connected pipeline.

In this project a cylindrical tank 75 ft in diameter is designed for an internal pressure of 0.5 lbf/in.2 gauge in the vapor space. The plate material is ASTM A131 Grade B steel for thicknesses of 1/2 in. and less.
The top course of the butt-welded cylindrical sidewall is 1/4 in. thick. The tank API Std 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks roof is a conical shape with a 2:12 slope and a 1/4 in. thickness with single full-fillet welded lap joints. The maximum design liquid level is 6 in. below the plane of juncture of the roof and sidewall.

API Std 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel 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.

"Adhere to green development, implement basic national policies to conserve resources and protect the environment, and take the goal of creating a resource-saving and environment-friendly iron and steel joint enterprise to promote the construction of ecological civilization.Strengthen the construction of core talents, further release the talents' innovative wisdom and innovation potential, and promote the efficient and high-quality development of enterprises. Adhere to the people-oriented principle, persist in relying on employees for development, share development results with employees, and build a harmonious enterprise."

Management information and high efficiency. Because of the rapid flow of API Std 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks goods, container multimodal transport and "door-to-door" transport, it is required that the port must have a modern information network, so that it can have the comprehensive capabilities of all-weather access, rapid loading and unloading, customs clearance, collection, distribution, storage and transportation

Before delivering our hot rolled plate product we apply various tests to check the quality of carbon steel API Std 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks plates such as- mechanical test, chemical test, hardness test, toughness test, eddy current test, impact test, micro test, flaring test, flattening test, etc. We are provided best packing for structural steel plates to avoid rust. Our after-sales service team will contact you if you have any question.
