API Std 650 flat-bottom steel tanks grade

The working pressure of the low-pressure storage tank is greater than that of the atmospheric storage tank, but its pressure is less than 0.1MPa. API 650 petroleum storage tanks are classified according to their environment: Above-ground storage tank: refers to the bottom of the storage tank at the design elevation of API Std 650 flat-bottom steel tanks and above; the bottom of the tank is below the design elevation of +0.00 but not exceeding.

Natural ventilation loss: the main cause of natural ventilation loss is that the API Std 650 flat-bottom steel tanks is not tightly sealed. This is usually due to corrosion perforation on the top of the oil tank, or there is a height difference between the two orifices. The air tightness of the mixture in the API Std 650 flat-bottom steel tanks is higher than that of the air, which causes the mixture gas in the tank to be discharged into the atmosphere from the lower hole, and the external air flows into the tank from the high hole, resulting in natural ventilation loss.

Qualifications of API 620 Storage Tanks ExaminersExaminers for tanks constructed according to the rules in this standard shall have had not less than 5 years experience in design, construction, maintenance and/or repair, or in the responsible supervision of the construction, maintenance and/or repair of various types of unfired pressure vessels and/or API Std 650 flat-bottom steel tanks tanks, including at least 1 year of experience in the construction or supervision of the construction of vessels or tanks by fusion welding. Satisfactory completion of a suitable course of training approved by the Purchaser or the Purchaser’s agent may be substituted for 3 of the 5 years experience. However, training cannot replace more than 6 months of the required experience on fusion-welding construction.
