A678 Gr B plates API standard 650 welded tanks for oil storage

Welders participating in the construction of API standard 650 welded tanks for oil storage must pass the examination and perform welding within the validity period of the qualified items. Special operators such as on-site maintenance electricians, cranes, and shelf workers must hold job certificates. All oil pipelines need to use arc welding for bottoming and electric welding to ensure the welding quality. Oil tanks and process pipelines must be tested for non-destructive flaws in accordance with the flaw detection ratios and methods required by the design and acceptance specifications. The flaw detectors must be certified.Design of Compression-ring Regions
In this project, a cylindrical tank 30 ft in diameter is designed for an internal pressure of 5 lbf/in.2 gauge in the vapor space. The plate material is ASTM A131 Grade A steel for thicknesses of 1/2 in. and less. The top course of the butt- welded cylindrical sidewall is 1/4 in. thick, including a 1/16 in. corrosion allowance. The tank API standard 650 welded tanks for oil storage roof is a butt-welded spherical dome with an internal radius of 30 ft and a thickness of 1/4 in., including a 1/16 in. corrosion allowance. The maximum design liquid level is 6 in. below the plane of the juncture of the roof and sidewall.Under the same sealing effect, the internal floating roof tank of API 650 oil storage tank can further reduce the evaporation loss compared with the API standard 650 welded tanks for oil storage External floating roof tank. This is due to the shielding of the fixed roof and the gas layer between the fixed roof and the internal floating plate, which has more significant heat insulation effect than the double disc floating roof of the API standard 650 welded tanks for oil storage external floating roof tank.The cultural construction must let the enterprise staff participate in the enterprise culture, in order to better carry on the effective dissemination enterprise idea, the sharing value system, such as the internal communication, the newspaper, the forum, the propaganda, the news announcement and so on. At the same time, the system can also be used to educate and train employees, send blessings to employees on their birthdays or during Chinese New Year holidays, so that employees can feel the practice of corporate culture, the warmth of the enterprise, and enhance the sense of belonging and recognition of the enterprise.We are experienced shipbuilding and marine grade steel materials supplier and exporter with more than 20 years experience. For any question about the API standard 650 welded tanks for oil storage shipbuilding steel materials, such as shipbuilding steel price, ABS EH36 steel specification, Lloyds grade A steel properties, AH36 steel mechanical properties, AH32 steel price, DH32 steel dimensions, difference between EH36 and DH 36 etc., please feel free to consult us.
