Erection of API standard 650 mechanically-anchored tanks

API 650 petroleum storage tank pipeline stress and product pressure, tank pressure, uniform or non-uniform temperature difference between the tank wall and the tank bottom, which cause the radial displacement and longitudinal rotation of the API standard 650 mechanically-anchored tanks tank wall at the opening to affect the oil tank wall The impact is obvious. Therefore, the design must ensure that the load applied by the external pipeline on the opening of the tank wall is within the safety limit. If the stress of the API standard 650 mechanically-anchored tanks connecting piping is not handled properly, the wall of the API 650 petroleum storage tank may deform or even rupture, causing a major accident.

Soil Structure Interaction: Soil structure interaction per API 650, Section E.6.1.6 may be used for OLE design providing the damping ratio does not exceed 10 %.
Allowable Stresses
Design allowable stresses shall be per API 620 large welded steel storage tank, Section Q.3.3, including the 33 % increase permitted for earthquake loads.
Self-anchored Inner Tank
The anchorage ratio for a self-anchored inner tank, J, shall not exceed 1.0 for the OLE design combination to limit uplift and stresses in the annular plate and corner weld.
Foundation Stability
The overturning ratio defined in API 650, Section E.6.2.3, Equation (E.6.2.3-1) shall be equal to or greater than 3.0 for the defined OLE event.

The safety inspection of atmospheric storage tank, API standard 650 mechanically-anchored tanks is divided into external inspection, internal and external inspection and comprehensive inspection. External inspection shall be conducted at least once a year, internal and external inspection shall be conducted at least once every three years, and comprehensive inspection shall be conducted at least once every six years. The safety inspection of large atmospheric storage tanks, API standard 650 mechanically-anchored tanks requires special attention: the parts where the liquid level often fluctuates, the parts that are susceptible to corrosion, and the parts that are deformed and worn during use should be checked.

Group consciousness is an important psychological factor for the formation of enterprise internal cohesion. The formation of API standard 650 mechanically-anchored tanks enterprise group consciousness makes every employee of the enterprise regard their work and behavior as an integral part of the realization of enterprise goals, make them feel proud of themselves as a member of the enterprise, have a sense of honor for the achievements of the enterprise, and thus regard the API standard 650 mechanically-anchored tanks enterprise as the community and belonging of their own interests.

Our company's logistics breaks through the perspective that the center of transportation service is ability, and emphasizes that the purpose of transportation service is customer first. Customer demand determines the content and mode of transportation service, while production is often small batch, diversified and consumer demand tends to be diversified. In the case of personalization, our logistics service also provides personalized service projects.

Due to other non-steel quality reasons caused by the customer dissatisfaction, to timely explain to the customer, and help them solve the problem, for the customer really because of their own reasons, to give patient reply.The process of objection handling is the process of our technical service.
