Floating roof API 650 open-top tanks

Normal pressure API 650 storage tank: When the gas side pressure of API 650 storage tank is the same as atmospheric pressure or less than 13 atmospheres (gauge), API 650 open-top tanks is called atmospheric storage tank. API 650 petroleum storage tanks low pressure storage tank: when the pressure is greater than 13 atmospheres (gauge) and less than 0.1MPa, it is called low pressure storage tank.

The main advantages of the external floating roof API 650 open-top tanks are large storage capacity, suitable for storing more than 10000 cubic meters of crude oil. Compared with the internal floating roof API 650 open-top tanks, the production of external floating roof API 650 open-top tanks is simple and the steel consumption is less. However, the central drainage system of external floating roof API 650 open-top tanks should be installed on the outer floating roof to ensure that the accumulated water can be discharged smoothly in rainy and snowy days, and avoid sinking accident.

The thickness of the API 650 open-top tanks annular bottom plates shall be in accordance with Table Q-4 (for steel or aluminum, as applicable). The thicknesses shown are minimums. The ring of annual plates shall have a circular outside circumference, but it may have a regular polygonal shape inside the tank shell with the number of sides equal to the number of annular plates. These pieces shall be butt-welded in accordance with Q.7.1.1, Item b. The plates of the first shell course shall be attached to the annular bottom plates by a weld as required by API 620 oil tank 5.9.5 except when a full-penetration weld is used or required (see Q.7.1.1). Butt-welds in annular plates shall be not closer than 12 in. from any vertical weld.
