API standard 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks designed to operate under external pressure conditions

API 650 external floating roof storage tanks are generally called external floating roof API standard 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks tanks, which means that the storage tanks are externally open tanks without a dome design, and are equipped with vertical floating roofs. API 650 external floating roof storage tanks are usually used for large More than 20,000 cubic meters of open steel API standard 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks storage tanks for storing volatile petroleum products such as crude oil, gasoline, kerosene, etc.

API standard 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks weld tightness test: remove dirt from the API standard 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks weld, apply white powder emulsion, spray kerosene on the other side of the weld after drying. Because of the strong penetration of kerosene, if kerosene is sprayed after 12 hours (under low temperature conditions, the time can be extended), if the surface of the welded seam coated with white emulsion has no spots, the welded seam meets the requirements.

Foundations and subgrade shall safely carry the weight of the tank API standard 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks and its contents when the tank is filled with water to the highest level required for a hydrostatic test or other water-loading operations, even though the tank itself may be designed for some lesser density of liquid. However, in cases where the character of the soil justifies it and a competent soil expert advises it, allowance may be made for the relatively short duration and intermittent nature of the water loadings if suitable account is taken of all such loadings that may be expected to occur during the life of the tank, including not only those loadings that are incidental to periodic repetitions of the hydrostatic test in accordance with 7.18 but also water-filling operations for gas-freeing purposes.
