A516 grade 70 plates API standard 650 flat-bottom oil storage tanks

API 650 "welded storage tanks" API standard 650 flat-bottom oil storage tanks is a standard developed and issued by the American Petroleum Institute (API), which specifies the minimum requirements for the design, manufacture, installation and inspection of welded storage tanks.

Operation points of sand blasting rust removal for metal storage tank, API standard 650 flat-bottom oil storage tanks:
1. The equipment should be as close as possible to the workpiece to be processed, so as to reduce the pipeline length and pressure loss, avoid excessive pipeline wear, and facilitate the construction personnel to contact each other.
2. The jet pipe should be straight as much as possible to reduce the concentrated wear at the bend. The wear direction of the bend should be changed frequently to prolong the service life of the pipe.
3. Strictly control the process parameters.

The API standard 650 flat-bottom oil storage tanks stiffener ring and backing strip (if used) are primary components, and they shall comply with the requirements of API 620 storage steel tank Q.2.1. The stiffener rings may be fabricated from plate using an intermittent weld on alternating sides between the web and the flange.
Except for aluminum or stainless steel tanks, all fillet welds shall consist of a minimum of two passes. The ends of the fillet welds shall be 2 in. from the rat hole (see Figure Q-1), and these welds shall be deposited by starting 2 in. from the rat hole and welding away from the rat hole. An acceptable alternative to the detail that includes stopping fillet welds 2 in. short of the rat hole would be to weld continuously through the rat hole from one side of the stiffener to the opposite side. All craters in fillet welds shall be repaired by back welding.
