API Std 650 horizontal tank leg attachments

Structural features of API 650 double-layer oil tank: steel glass fiber reinforced plastic double-layer structure, special processing method is adopted between the API Std 650 horizontal tank internal steel shell and glass fiber reinforced plastic layer, so that a gap of 0.1 mm is created between the internal and external layers. Even if the API 650 oil storage tank leaks, it can ensure that the contained dangerous substances only flow in the gap, and will not immediately overflow the external environment.

Relying on the background of high-quality steel resources and its own strong steel machining capabilities, BBN comany can not only supply various steel material products, such as steel coils, steel plates, API Std 650 horizontal tank sheet, steel pipes, and shaped steels, but also provide a variety of steel deep processing services like cutting, welding and grinding. Through continuous technological innovation and after-sales service optimization, the company has its own world on the domestic and international steel industry stage!

Structural shapes of 9% and 5% nickel steel may be furnished to the chemical and physical requirements of ASTM A353, A553, or A645. Physical tests shall be in accordance with the requirements of ASTM A6.
API Std 650 horizontal tank used Piping, Tubing, and Forgings
Material used for piping, tubing, and forgings shall be compatible in welding strength, and thermal expansion coefficient with the tank shell material. In addition to the specific requirements of this appendix, all piping within the limitations of 1.3.2 shall fulfill the minimum requirements of ASME B31.3.

The foundation design of the API Std 650 horizontal tank should meet the requirements of foundation stability and deformation, that is, the API Std 650 horizontal tank foundation should not be crushed and the uneven settlement value of the foundation should be within the allowable range. The uneven settlement of the storage tank foundation should be specified in the design process of the safe allowable range, because excessive uneven settlement will reduce the safety of the API Std 650 horizontal tank and cause distortion and deformation of the tank wall and bottom plate.
