API 5L grade B pipe API 650 stainless steel storage tanks

When welding API 650 stainless steel storage tanks, in order to avoid weld deformation, it is necessary to use corresponding welding process according to the type of steel used in the tank, such as welding requirements of steel plate, welding position, etc. Reasonable arrangement of the assembly sequence, the use of subsection back welding and jump welding method, strict control of welding process parameters, rigid fixation measures, take corrective measures for deformation compensation are necessary.

API 620 Tank Standard Post-heat Treatment (Stress Relief)
The post-heat treatment now performed on pressure vessels is of established value, although the mechanism by which the improvement is realized may be open to debate. Post-heat treatment of API 650 stainless steel storage tanks tank sections when the plate thickness exceeds 11/4 in. is required as stated in 5.25. In special cases, the possibilities of post-heat treatment after erection should be explored. Post-heating an insulated tank may be possible if an ample source of heat is readily available and if the rigidity of the tank is adequate.
The thermal stress-relief treatment performed on pressure vessels is recognized as a means for reducing the probability of brittle failures.

The vent pipe mouth should be 4m or more above the ground. The nominal diameter of the API 650 stainless steel storage tanks API 650 petroleum storage tank vent pipe should be no less than 50mm and a flame arrestor should be installed.

we develop very well through those years even the external environment is not conducive to the whole steel industry. With the prosperity of our group, our company always bear its staff who contributes to its growth in mind, and always on the way to improve welfare and treatment. That makes us staff and work with pleasure. On the other way, they creat a better and stronger our group. That may be one of the key factors why we develop so rapidly those years. Here we can say proudly “we are family”.
