Design temperature of API 650 open top welded storage tanks

The API 650 open top welded storage tanks stiffener ring and backing strip (if used) are primary components, and they shall comply with the requirements of API 620 storage steel tank Q.2.1. The stiffener rings may be fabricated from plate using an intermittent weld on alternating sides between the web and the flange.
Except for aluminum or stainless steel tanks, all fillet welds shall consist of a minimum of two passes. The ends of the fillet welds shall be 2 in. from the rat hole (see Figure Q-1), and these welds shall be deposited by starting 2 in. from the rat hole and welding away from the rat hole. An acceptable alternative to the detail that includes stopping fillet welds 2 in. short of the rat hole would be to weld continuously through the rat hole from one side of the stiffener to the opposite side. All craters in fillet welds shall be repaired by back welding.

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

Tunisia cutomer purchased around 1500 tons 304L,310S stainless steel plate from us and make tanks in August, 2017. The company was skilled in the design and manufacture of stainless steel tanks, API 650 open top welded storage tanks processing systems and equipment for the food, dairy, beverage, chemical, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and pure water industries. They also sent the inspection team come our company and visited our production line. After using our stainless steel plate, the customer was very satisfied with our products.

Oil storage tank with floating roof structure: The floating roof in the API 650 open top welded storage tanks oil storage tank can effectively reduce the volatilization consumption of oil, because the gas space on the oil liquid surface in the floating roof storage tank is small, the exhaust volume is low, and the breathing loss is very small. That can reduce the volatilization loss caused by the "big breath" of the API 650 open top welded storage tanks. Strengthen the inspection and maintenance of API 650 open top welded storage tanks: regularly check the sealing conditions of oil storage tanks, and check and maintain important auxiliary equipment to ensure good sealing performance.

The company attaches great importance to the cultivation of team spirit. Personal strength is weak. After sales service departments, leaders and subordinates often communicate with each other. Everyone often holds meetings to discuss their problems in after-sales service, discuss technical difficulties, discuss how to improve work efficiency, how to better deal with user complaints, etc.
