66m diameter API 650 mechanically-anchored tanks

API 650 petroleum storage tank has the advantages of high safety: the API 650 mechanically-anchored tanksinner floating plate floats on the liquid surface, so that the liquid phase has no evaporation space, which can reduce the evaporation loss by 85% to 90%. At the same time, the API 650 petroleum storage tank blocks the air and liquid storage through the floating disk, which reduces air pollution and reduces the degree of fire risk.

The engineering quality of API 650 mechanically-anchored tanks not only affects production and operation, but also affects the life safety of the staff. The factors affecting the API 650 mechanically-anchored tanks construction quality are all aspects, any link, any part of the problem will affect the whole project, so the quality management is paid more and more attention. How to ensure the engineering construction quality of oil tank? First, make API 650 mechanically-anchored tanks construction technical preparation carefully, understand the design intent, master the construction acceptance specification, and make detailed construction technical disclosure to the construction team.

In this project, an area of tank wall is constructed of ASTM A285, Grade C, steel plate that is 5/8-in. thick and has spot-radiographed, double-welded butt joints. The wall is subject to tension in a meridional direction and to compression in a latitudinal direction. The values of R1 and R2 at the point under consideration are 75 in. and 300 in. respectively. A corrosion allowance of 1/16 in. is required. The computed (meridional) tensile stress, stc, in the net thickness after deduction of the corrosion allowance is 6000 lbf/in.2.
The problem in this example is to find the maximum allowable (latitudinal) compressive stress value for the given conditions, in conformance with the provisions of API 620 tank standard 5.5.4.5.

Our technical department plays important role in our professional communication with customers, especially those who have high technical requirements for steel materials and those who need complex further processing. Under such condition, our technician department can provide technical support in time, anylize customer design or make drawing according to customer needs rapidly, so that we can proceed smoothly. The profession of our team has won great praise of customers.

Management information and high efficiency. Because of the rapid flow of API 650 mechanically-anchored tanks goods, container multimodal transport and "door-to-door" transport, it is required that the port must have a modern information network, so that it can have the comprehensive capabilities of all-weather access, rapid loading and unloading, customs clearance, collection, distribution, storage and transportation
