API standard 650 open-top tanks foundations for elevated temperature service

Inspection of API standard 650 open-top tanks bottom: magnetic flux leakage scanning technology is used to detect the corrosion condition of API standard 650 open-top tanks bottom plate (such as corrosion depth and area, crack length, etc.). When there is a defect in the bottom plate of the API standard 650 open-top tanks, the magnetic field distribution will change and the sensor can detect it. The bottom of the oil tank should be free of foreign matters and dry during testing. Weld inspection of API standard 650 open-top tanks bottom plate: when vacuum leak test method is used to detect the tightness of oil tank bottom plate, soap water shall be applied to the weld and vacuum box shall be covered for observation.When the API standard 650 open-top tanks top shell course is the minimum thickness indicated in 5.10.4, Table 5-6 and Figure 5-6, details a – e, h and i, the minimum anchorage shall be designed for normal loads as specified by the Purchaser and by this standard. See 5.11.2.3 for the allowable stress. When the top shell course is thickened beyond the minimum thickness provided in Table 5-6 or as in Figure 5-6, details f and g, or a knuckle is used, the minimum anchorage shall be designed for three times the internal design pressure. The allowable stress for this loading is 90% of the minimum specified yield strength of anchorage material.API 650 petroleum storage tanks are used for API standard 650 open-top tanks storage. API 650 petroleum storage tanks can be made of carbon steel, austenitic stainless steel and nickel alloy (only for low temperature). Welding API standard 650 open-top tanks certification is regulated by Section 10 of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). For API 650 petroleum storage tanks, non-destructive inspections are required, but third-party inspections are not required.With the development of China's market economy, the company vigorously implements the strategy of industrialization, internationalization and diversification, promotes the group operation, intensive development and lean management, and through a rich series of products and project portfolio as well as a complete operation network, Build the company into a modern enterprise with scientific development concept, continuous innovation vitality, excellent corporate culture, strong sense of social responsibility and international first-class competitiveness.Our steel products are widely used in petroleum and natural gas, chemical industry, shipbuilding, automobile manufacturing, power generation, mining, and other industries.
