API 650 petroleum storage tanks joint penetration

Static storage loss is also known as "small breathing" consumption. The rise and fall of the temperature in the API 650 petroleum storage tanks leads to the increase and decrease of the pressure in the tank, which makes the mixed oil gas discharged from the tank, and the external air is sucked into the tank, resulting in the oil consumption. Fluid level loss is also called "big breathing" loss. It is the oil consumption caused by the change of gas space volume in the API 650 petroleum storage tanks during the oil receiving and sending operation, which causes the mixed oil gas to be discharged out of the tank, and the external air is sucked into the tank, resulting in the oil consumption due to the change of liquid level height.

All welded seams in the API 650 petroleum storage tanks bottom, and complete penetration and complete fusion sidewall-to-bottom welds, shall be inspected by means of a vacuum box test as described in Q.8.2.1. Sidewall-to-bottom welds not having complete penetration and complete fusion shall be inspected by means of either a vacuum box test of the inside weld as described in API 620 specification Q.8.2.1, or where approved by the Purchaser, a direct pressure solution film test as described in Q.8.2.2.

API 650 petroleum storage tank pipeline stress and product pressure, tank pressure, uniform or non-uniform temperature difference between the tank wall and the tank bottom, which cause the radial displacement and longitudinal rotation of the API 650 petroleum storage tanks tank wall at the opening to affect the oil tank wall The impact is obvious. Therefore, the design must ensure that the load applied by the external pipeline on the opening of the tank wall is within the safety limit. If the stress of the API 650 petroleum storage tanks connecting piping is not handled properly, the wall of the API 650 petroleum storage tank may deform or even rupture, causing a major accident.

The company always insists on quality first. "Tolerance and trust, change and innovation, abide by rules, and focus on refining people" are the eternal credo of the team.
