API standard 650 horizontal tank temperature

Anti corrosion of API standard 650 horizontal tank:
After using for a certain period of time, it is necessary to check the corrosion protection of the API standard 650 horizontal tank. If necessary, the outer wall of the metal oil tank should be painted with new anti-corrosion paint to ensure that the outer wall of the API standard 650 horizontal tank does not fall off and has good waterproof and rust resistance.
API standard 650 horizontal tank cleaning:
The long-term use of API standard 650 horizontal tank will produce impurities on the tank wall and deposit on the tank bottom, resulting in tank corrosion to leakage. According to the safety standard of oil tank, the API standard 650 horizontal tank shall be cleaned and derusted regularly to ensure the quality of oil stored and the safety of oil tank equipment.

Soil Structure Interaction: Soil structure interaction per API 650, Section E.6.1.6 may be used for OLE design providing the damping ratio does not exceed 10 %.
Allowable Stresses
Design allowable stresses shall be per API 620 large welded steel storage tank, Section Q.3.3, including the 33 % increase permitted for earthquake loads.
Self-anchored Inner Tank
The anchorage ratio for a self-anchored inner tank, J, shall not exceed 1.0 for the OLE design combination to limit uplift and stresses in the annular plate and corner weld.
Foundation Stability
The overturning ratio defined in API 650, Section E.6.2.3, Equation (E.6.2.3-1) shall be equal to or greater than 3.0 for the defined OLE event.

One of the most widely used design codes is the API 650 Standard, from the American Petroleum Institute. The main objective of this standards API standard 650 horizontal tank is, through the requirements contained in its various sections, to facilitate the purchase and construction of vertical, aboveground, welded fabricated tanks assuring that required safety regulations are met.
