API 650 vertical welded storage tanks design thickness

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 650 vertical welded storage tanks 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.

This standard establishes minimum requirements for API 650 tank material, API 650 vertical welded storage tanks design, fabrication, erection, and inspection for ertical. aboveground,closed- and open-top.

We have lots of successful cases, for example in July 2015, we exported 5714 tons ASTM A36 mild steel plate to Peru. After receiving the plates and putting then into use, our customer spoke highly of the ASTM A36 mild steel plate quality. In addition, the customer also introduced us an Venezuela customer, who bought 933 tons A36 steel API 650 vertical welded storage tanks plate from us. And then in Mar. 2016, due to the first cooperation in July 2015 is very successful. The customer is very satisfied with our product quality and comprehensive service. This time, the customer place an 3989 tons order directly.

Ultrasonic testing can find the internal defects of API 650 vertical welded storage tanks welding joint, this detection method is very accurate for the internal layer defects of oil tank, but ultrasonic detection is not suitable for the detection of thin-walled storage tank materials. Dye penetrant testing is only suitable for detecting the defects of the surface opening of API 650 vertical welded storage tanks and so on metal oil tanks. The feature of this method is convenient and fast.

The company's after-sales service tenet is "customer first, timely guarantee, enthusiastic service and effective work". In order to establish a set of perfect after-sales service system and strict management system, so that the after-sales service can be effectively guaranteed. The company has set up after-sales service department to ensure timely, unique and effective response to every user's request, coordinate internal resources internally, and put an end to all evasion and delay.
