220ft diameter API Std 650 flat-bottom tanks
The thickness of the API Std 650 flat-bottom 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.
API 650 storage tank stipulates that if the thickness of the lower wall panel obtained by calculating the anti-overturning moment is greater than the thickness of the API Std 650 flat-bottom tanks hydrostatic pressure test (both do not include the corrosion allowance).
We exported 2150 Tons SG295 steel coils to Sudan. The Sudan customer is LPG cylinder manufacturer. Before our cooperation, he usually purchased SG295 steel coils from UAE and Turkey. And he got to know our company through our regular customers in Uganda, UAE, and his friends in China. Then he gave us the order. We invited the customer to visit us before contract, but he insisted to visit us when the API Std 650 flat-bottom tanks goods are finished production. After inspecting the size, package in workshop and witness the lab test for the SG295 steel coils, the customer was very satisfied to our quality control and professional arrangement.
}Generally speaking, the duration of the "exhalation" of the API Std 650 flat-bottom tanks is longer than that of the "inhalation" of the API Std 650 flat-bottom tanks every day. There are many factors affecting the "small breathing" loss, mainly including the following points: the change of temperature difference between day and night, sunshine time of the API Std 650 flat-bottom tanks location, open area of the API Std 650 flat-bottom tanks, atmospheric pressure, filling degree of API Std 650 flat-bottom tanks, etc. When the API Std 650 flat-bottom tanks is full of gas, the space volume is small, and the "small breathing" loss is less; if the space volume is large, the loss is also large.
The company formulates clear service process and service standard. To do a good job in after-sales service, first of all, clear service process and service standards should be formulated to let employees know which procedures to perform and which service standards to abide by.
