Seismic Use Group for API 650 cylindrical liquid-storage tank

API 650 external floating roof storage tanks are generally called external floating roof API 650 cylindrical liquid-storage tank tanks, which means that the storage tanks are externally open tanks without a dome design, and are equipped with vertical floating roofs. API 650 external floating roof storage tanks are usually used for large More than 20,000 cubic meters of open steel API 650 cylindrical liquid-storage tank storage tanks for storing volatile petroleum products such as crude oil, gasoline, kerosene, etc.

Proper use of API 650 cylindrical liquid-storage tank and precautions:
1. The API 650 cylindrical liquid-storage tank must be used within the safe height range;
2. Check before use to ensure that the safety valve and breathing valve are flexible and easy to use;
3. The explosion-proof and fire-proof safety measures for oil tanks are implemented effectively;
4. The oil level in the API 650 cylindrical liquid-storage tank should be accurately measured when receiving and delivering oil, so as to prevent overflow or empty;
5. In the process of receiving and sending oil, the flow rate of oil should be controlled, and it should not be too fast to avoid electrostatic accidents.

In cylindrical tank walls, the longitudinal weld joints in adjacent shell courses, including compression ring welds, shall be offset from each other a minimum distance of 12 in. The butt-weld around the periphery of a thickened insert plate, or the fillet weld around the periphery of a reinforcing plate, shall be at least the greater of 10 times the shell thickness or 12 in. from any butt-welded seam or the bottom-to-shell or roof-to-shell joint. As an alternative, the insert plate (or the API 650 cylindrical liquid-storage tank reinforcing plate in an assembly that does not require stress relief) may extend to and intersect a flat-bottom-to-shell corner joint at approximately 90 degrees.

As an experienced world class steel materials supplier and exporter, logistics and fast delivery is a crucial step to us. Our logistics department and shipping department take the responsiblity to allocate and transport steel materials from our mill and warehouse to customer port or designated destination. The cooperation of the two departemts are excellent and that powerfully support our fast delivery, and strive for shorter time for customers to receive steel materials.

The mode of iron and API 650 cylindrical liquid-storage tank steel logistics transportation is mainly intercontinental ocean shipping and inland rail transportation. European ports have been very mature after years of development, such as Hamburg in Germany, Rotterdam in the Netherlands and Antwerp in Belgium. Relying on the huge market of the European Union, these ports are positioned in the logistics distribution function of cargo distribution and large import and export, and play a great role in the transportation of API 650 cylindrical liquid-storage tank steel logistics.
