API 650 storage tanks heat treatment of plates

storage tank Annular Bottom Plates
Thickness shall be per API 650, Appendix E (with loads modified by requirements of this appendix) plus corrosion allowance unless a thickness increase is required for compliance with Appendix R or Appendix Q. Annular plate width shall be per API 650, Appendix E (with loads modified by requirements of this appendix) unless a width increase is required for compliance with Appendix R or Appendix Q. Thickness used for determination of API 650 welded storage tank standard, Appendix E width shall be based on the thickness required for seismic product hold down.The temperature requirements of the API 650 oil storage tank area are closely related to the evaporation loss, energy loss, API 650 storage tanks storage and storage platform tank materials and the selection of detection instruments, or the temperature of the API 650 oil storage tank area. The cost of storage has a direct impact.In 2018, one of our India customers visit Zhengzhou office building and work shop to discuss carbon steel Q235B grind plate technical request. They have strict surface and thickness tolerance, and they also request UT and MT for testing for Q235B grind plate. As a result, they purchase 179 tons as trial order for first cooperation. After using the gind plate, the India customer has good comment on our API 650 storage tanks quality. Till now, we keep exporting around 100 tons per month as regularly.In the actual welding of API 650 storage tanks, operators will use more arc-shaped plates for tailor-welding to better adapt to the larger volume of oil storage tanks. In order to effectively control the deformation of the welding seam of the API 650 storage tanks, a scientific and accurate prefabricated bottom plate is required. In the process of prefabricating the bottom plate of the oil storage tank, it is necessary to strictly follow the technical requirements for the construction of the oil storage tank. At the same time, it is also necessary to clarify the external dimensions according to its actual manufacturing standards so that it has sufficient shrinkage.We should focus on the main problems to be solved and pay attention to efficiency. After receiving the user's quality objection report data, the possible causes, responsible units, compensation amount, etc. of the problem shall be judged based on experience. To have a clear service plan, to be clear about what your main problem is, what technical support is needed, these should be prepared.
