Erection requirements for API Std 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks
Stamping of API 620 storage tank PlatesBefore plates required to be stamped by the steel mill are used, the inspector shall see that they bear the stamp. In laying out and cutting the API Std 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks plates, at least one set of the original material identification markings should, if possible, be left where it will be plainly visible when the tank is completed. Should the identifying marks be obliterateSpot radiographic or ultrasonic examination shall be not less than 6 in. extending along the weld. Spot radiography shall comply with the standards given in 7.15.1.3. Where spot radiographic or ultrasonic examination is applied at joint intersections, the surface shall be prepared and examined for a distance of 3 in. on each side of the intersection, making the minimum length of examination 6 in. on the horizontal weld and 3 in. on the vertical weld.
API 650 petroleum storage tank basic knowledge, storage tank concept and use: API Std 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks storage equipment for storing crude oil, gasoline, kerosene, petroleum and various non-volatile chemicals, API 650 petroleum storage tank is a storage and transportation system facility, oil refining, chemical industry An important part of the device.
our company offered 2950 ton A36 steel API Std 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks plate to Philippines customer, which was used to build water supply project. It is the government project. The procurement with their project engineer come to China to discuss this project in middle of 2016. After checking the mill, they signed the contract with us. we supply the ASTM A36 Original Mill Test Certificate Stamped.
}Natural ventilation loss: the main cause of natural ventilation loss is that the API Std 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks is not tightly sealed. This is usually due to corrosion perforation on the top of the oil tank, or there is a height difference between the two orifices. The air tightness of the mixture in the API Std 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks is higher than that of the air, which causes the mixture gas in the tank to be discharged into the atmosphere from the lower hole, and the external air flows into the tank from the high hole, resulting in natural ventilation loss.
We should focus on the main problems to be solved and pay attention to efficiency. After receiving the user's quality objection report data, the possible causes, responsible units, compensation amount, etc. of the problem shall be judged based on experience. To have a clear service plan, to be clear about what your main problem is, what technical support is needed, these should be prepared.
