36m diameter API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks
Generally, the snow load in the API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks construction area should be considered before the design and construction of the tank. The snow load in the API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks construction area has an impact on the tank roof design and operation, especially in the area with large snow load, the roof load of large storage tank with large diameter increases. Anti freezing, heat preservation and waterproof measures shall be taken for the additional facilities of storage tanks, such as pumps, breathing valves, flame arresters, detection instruments and thermal insulation layers.Impact Test Requirements for Oil Storage Tanks Primary ComponentsAll API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks primary components of 9% or 5% nickel steel shall be impact tested in accordance with Q.2.2.2 through Q.2.2.4. Impact testing is not required for primary components of austenitic stainless steel, nickel alloy, and aluminum materials. Welds in high-alloy (austenitic) stainless steel shall be impact tested if required by Q.6.3.Impact testing of plates, including structural members made of plate, shall comply with the following:a)Impact test specimens shall be taken transverse to the direction of final plate rolling. b)Charpy V-notch specimens shall be cooled to a temperature of –320°F for A353, A553, and A645 steels for impact testing.There is a gap of 100 mm to 500 mm between the shell of API 650 crude oil storage API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks tank and the floating plate of external floating roof to ensure that there is no chuck during operation. Use API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks edge sealing system to reduce edge evaporation. The support legs of API 650 crude oil tank floating roof are usually movable and retractable and suspended in liquid.Integrity, cooperation and innovation, positive and competitive, healthy and abundant are the company's core values. The company API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks always adhere to the "people-oriented", pay attention to improve the production skills and cultural quality of employees, by cultivating employees to carry forward excellent cultural traditions, set up the correct values, ethics and codes of conduct to improve employees' loyalty and work enthusiasm.The company is mainly engaged in API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks steel plates manufacturing and deep processing, sales and distribution. It is committed to building a complete modern steel purchase and sale network. Here we would like to express our sincere gratitude to our old and new friends who have always given care, support, affirmation and help, and sincerely hope to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with them for mutual benefit, win-win and common development, and work API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks together for a better tomorrow.
