Design requirements of API 650 liquid-storage tanks

API 650 Application As described by the American Petroleum Institute, the fabrication and installation of our surface welded API 650 liquid-storage tanks steel storage tanks is normally used in industrial applications. In general, our standards for industrial on-site installation of storage tanks are established according to API 650, API 620 and API 12D.

A refrigerated tank may be a single-wall insulated tank or a double-wall tank that consists of an inner tank for storing the refrigerated liquid and an outer tank that encloses an insulation space (which usually has a lower gas pressure) around the inner tank. A double-wall tank is a composite tank, and the outer tank is not required to contain the product of the inner tank. In a double-wall tank, differences in API Standard 620 tank materials, design, and testing exist between the inner and outer tanks.

X-ray inspection is mainly applicable to the internal inspection of pressure bearing parts and materials of metal oil tanks such as API 650 liquid-storage tanks. It can clearly find the blocky defects inside the welded joints. However, the cost and resource consumption of radiographic testing are large. Magnetic particle testing can effectively detect the surface and near surface defects of API 650 liquid-storage tanks etc. metal oil tanks, but magnetic particle testing can not effectively identify the internal defects of oil tanks.

The formula of enterprise success is: success = strategy × organizational capability, that is, having the right direction and strong organizational capability. The core competence of an enterprise depends on three pillars: first, talents (talent echelon); second, core values of enterprise culture; third, organizational governance model. If the enterprise is a tree, then the core values of talents, corporate culture and organizational governance mode are just like the root of the tree. With them, the enterprise will flourish and grow forever.
