API standard 650 petroleum storage tanks tank joints

Corrosion of the API standard 650 petroleum storage tanks body caused by external conditions such as high temperature, rain, humidity, or inadequate anti-corrosion measures of the oil storage tank itself, the water-bearing deposits in the oil storage tank caused corrosion and perforation of the inner surface of the oil storage tank bottom plate. Defects fatigue cracks caused by stress, with the accumulation of time, the compressive strength of the API standard 650 petroleum storage tanks body decreases and corrosion cracks occur.Test plates shall be welded using the same qualified welding procedure and electrodes that are required for the tank shell plate joints. The API 620 steel storage tank test plates need not be welded as an extension of the tank shell joint but shall be welded in the required qualifying positions. One test weld shall be made on a set of plates from each specification and grade of API standard 650 petroleum storage tanks plate material, using a thickness that would qualify for all thicknesses in the shell. Each test welded of thickness t shall qualify for plate thicknesses from 2t down to t/2, but not less than 5/8 in. For plate thicknesses less than 5/8 in., a test weld shall be made for the thinnest shell plate to be welded; this test weld will qualify plate thicknesses from t up to 2t.API 650 Tanks in which liquid fluids are stored and designed to withstand atmospheric pressure operation, less than 18 kPa, or internal pressures not exceeding the weight of the API standard 650 petroleum storage tanks roof, with temperatures no higher than 93, 3 C are included in the scope of this design code.Company tenet: first class quality and service to create corporate brand.Business philosophy: people-oriented, innovation, continuous improvement, the pursuit of excellence. Quality policy: carry forward the quality spirit, build a perfect quality management system, and put the quality strategy into every detail of the company's daily work.Environmental policy: waste reduction and pollution prevention, continuous improvement, and environmental protection.The company is mainly engaged in API standard 650 petroleum storage tanks steel plates manufacturing and deep processing, sales and distribution. It is committed to building a complete modern steel purchase and sale network. Here we would like to express our sincere gratitude to our old and new friends who have always given care, support, affirmation and help, and sincerely hope to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with them for mutual benefit, win-win and common development, and work API standard 650 petroleum storage tanks together for a better tomorrow.
