aluminum sheet 5652 API 650 low-alloy steel tanks

API 650 is used to store products such as crude oil, gasoline, chemicals, and produced water. BBN has extensive experience in API 650 low-alloy steel tanks API 650 tanks with diameters between 8'-300', which are suitable for refineries, terminals, pipeline facilities and other projects.

Oil tank is often used to store crude oil, diesel oil, gasoline and other oil. The main structure of API 650 low-alloy steel tanks is composed of tank top, tank wall, tank bottom and accessories. The API 650 low-alloy steel tanks should be inspected after the completion of construction, and the detection methods of different structure positions are different. Tank wall inspection: for the newly built oil tank, water filling test shall be conducted to check whether the tank wall is tight, and the appearance inspection shall be conducted for the tank wall plate and weld. Tank wall thickness detection: the oil tank wall thickness is mainly detected by ultrasonic wave, with high efficiency.

Design of Reinforcement for Single Openings in Tank Walls
The 20 in. x 29 in. obround manhole shown in Figure F-5 is located in solid plate in the sidewall of a cylindrical storage tank 45 ft in diameter in an area where the thickness of the wall plate, tw, is 1/2 in. No corrosion allowance is required. The total internal pressure, Pl + Pg, at the horizontal centerline of the opening is 27.5 lbf/in.2 gauge. The thickness of the wall plate, t, required by 5.10.3 for the latitudinal unit forces, T2, acting at this level is 0.485 in. The manhole neck is fabricated by welding from 3/8 in. plate. The materials in the API 620 tank wall, the manhole neck, and the reinforcing pad conform to ASTM A516 Grade 60. The joints in the welded steel storage oil tank wall and the longitudinal joint or joints in the manhole neck are double-welded butt joints, spot radiographed in accordance with 7.16 and 7.17.

Considering the large workload of allocation and transportion for our steel materials, we have built special shipping department, and make it independent form transportation department. The transportation department is in charge of transporting steel materials from our mill and warehouse to the port, and our shipping department is in charge of the shipping matters. So that our whole shipping efficiency is improved, and shorten time for customers to receive goods.

The company has our own truck fleet, and can transfer products flexibly and quickly. At the same time, we have large warehouses near the ports of Tianjin and Shanghai, so as to ensure that we can deliver high-quality products to customers in the first time. At the same time, it also greatly reduces the transportation cost, and realizes the double harvest of time benefit and economic benefit. Time guarantee is one of the important strengths of our service.
