API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank subject to a small internal pressure

The characteristics of the API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank internal floating roof structure of API 650 petroleum storage tanks: the inner floating roof or inner floating plate refers to the floating roof that floats on the liquid surface of the oil tank with the oil and liquid up and down. The API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank inner floating roof is used to cover the liquid. The surface is currently recognized as the most ideal and most economical and practical way to reduce oil evaporation loss.

The API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank must go through strict inspection before putting into use. Inspection of plate groove of API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank, vertical oil tank: After finishing the groove processing of oil tank plate, it is necessary to conduct dye penetrant inspection on the groove. This process is mainly aimed at the hard damage of groove in the machining process and the defects of the plate itself. If any defect is found, it shall be processed again until the defect disappears.

In this project, an area of steel storage oil tank wall is constructed of ASTM A285, Grade C, steel plate that is 5/8-in. thick and has spot-radiographed, double-welded butt joints. The wall is subject to tension in a meridional direction and to compression in a latitudinal direction. The values of R1 and R2 at the point under consideration are 75 in. and 300 in. respectively. A corrosion allowance of 1/16 in. is required. The computed (meridional) tensile stress, stc, in the net thickness after deduction of the corrosion allowance is 6000 lbf/in.2.

Our quality control department will do inspection for details of the steel materials API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank before delivery. We would invite the customer side to attend the inspection together. If they can not come, we will also take rich pictures for them to check. Meanwhile, we will publish inspection report and send them the PDF version. Besides, we accept any third party inspection such as SGS, BV, etc. And our quality control department will support the third party to inspect the steel materials smoothly and try our best to deliver the qualified steel materials to customers earlier.

As we all know, steel pipes occupy more space in the process of transportation. If there is no good way of packing, the transportation cost for steel pipes will be a big expense. In view of this characteristic, our company is ingenious and adopts the nest package method to solve this problem perfectly. The premise of the nest package is that the diameters of the steel pipes are different, and the small diameter pipe is inserted in the large diameter pipe. This not only saves the volume, but also saves the transportation cost. It also reduces the loading and unloading workload by half, saves precious time, and enables customers to receive goods earlier.
