The foundations for API Std 650 aboveground oil storage tanks

API Std 650 aboveground oil storage tanks, Oil tank is a large-scale storage equipment used to store oil materials. Usually, the service life of API Std 650 aboveground oil storage tanks is related to the actual working conditions. The design service life of most oil tanks is 20 years, and some of them are 10-15 years. Generally, none of them is less than 10 years. However, the design service life of API Std 650 aboveground oil storage tanks is on the one hand, which is an ideal state, but there are many objective factors in the actual process, it is impossible to achieve the designed service life. How to effectively increase the service life of API Std 650 aboveground oil storage tanks?

Low-pressure Storage Tanks for Liquefied Hydrocarbon Gases
API Std 650 aboveground oil storage tanks Primary Components: In general, primary components include those components that may be stressed to a significant level, those whose failure would permit leakage of the liquid being stored, those exposed to a refrigerated temperature between –60°F and –270°F, and those that are subject to thermal shock. The primary components shall include, but will not be limited to, the following parts of a single-wall tank or of the inner tank in a double-wall tank: shell plates; bottom plates; roof plates; knuckle plates; compression rings; shell stiffeners; and manways and nozzles including reinforcement, shell anchors, pipe, tubing, forgings, and bolting.

After-sales service team is a key department to test the steel quality. Product quality is always the foundation of our survival and development. The company's full inspection from raw materials to finished products; and implements standardized, scientific, and strict internal quality control and management systems in accordance with the process flow during the production process; products can only leave the factory if qualified, and follow-up problem solving systems are implemented in after-sales services to guarantee the customers’ interest.

Under the same sealing effect, the internal floating roof tank of API 650 oil storage tank can further reduce the evaporation loss compared with the API Std 650 aboveground oil storage tanks External floating roof tank. This is due to the shielding of the fixed roof and the gas layer between the fixed roof and the internal floating plate, which has more significant heat insulation effect than the double disc floating roof of the API Std 650 aboveground oil storage tanks external floating roof tank. =====
API 650 tank has the advantages of less load on the floating plate, simple and light structure, and can save the central drainage pipe and rotating floating ladder on the API Std 650 aboveground oil storage tanks floating plate. The materials for easy construction and maintenance and sealing parts can avoid aging due to sunlight.
