15ft diameter API standard 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks

Proof Tests for Establishing Allowable Working PressuresBecause pressures in liquid storage tanks built according to these rules vary quite markedly from the tops to the bottoms of the tanks, proof testing of these tanks presents problems not usually encountered in the construction of unfired pressure vessels–especially where the API standard 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks parts under investigation are located near the bottoms of the tanks. The principal difficulty is devising a test or series of tests that will reliably establish the working pressure that can be permitted on the part of the unproven design without, at the same time, imposing hazardous conditions on other parts located at higher levels in the tank.Application scope of API 650 petroleum storage tank:
1. API standard 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks Working pressure: atmospheric storage tank;
2. API 650 petroleum storage tank working temperature: -30℃~150℃;
3. API 650 petroleum storage tank liquid medium: various oil products, including naphtha, gasoline, diesel, kerosene, crude oil, fuel oil, heavy oil, benzene, xylene, methanol, ethanol;
4. API 650 petroleum storage tank volume: current design considerations generally do not exceed 10,000 cubic meters.In October 19th 2018, our Malaysia customer purchased 600 Tons CCS Grade AH36 mairne steel API standard 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks plates to use in their shipbuilding project .This customer is a famous shipyard company in Malaysia. Their company has the business scope of tourism, shipbuilding, transportation and so on. As a terminal manufacturer, they have strict requirements on quality for CCS Grade AH36 mairne steel plates. After visiting our steel milll, the customer is very satisfied with the quality of this batch of CCS Grade AH36 steel plates.The bottom plate of the vertical API standard 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks directly contacts with the foundation soil, which is suitable for the flexible foundation, and its settlement characteristics are quite different from that of the rigid foundation. For the settlement calculation of the foundation of a vertical API standard 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks, the one-way compression layered sum method can be used. The calculation method is to divide the foundation soil into several layers of compression within the calculation depth of the foundation settlement, and then find the sum. The calculation method of the compression amount of each layer is the same as the calculation method of the compression amount under the condition of no lateral deformation.Our company has established and constantly improved the customer service system and emergency response system. Through the customer service management system, we track the service of the after-sales service team and provide efficient and standard services in time. At the same time, the company formulates a regular return visit system, compares the historical cases of customer problems, proposes a pre solution, and ensures that the service is in place in a short time.
