API Std 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks designed without anchorage

storage tanks API Std 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks designed in accordance with the rules and guidelines of API 650 are called API 650 storage tanks. API 650 is a control rule for welded storage tanks that work normally in the normal pressure range.

Inspection of Welded Storage Tanks Surfaces Exposed during FabricationThe edges of API Std 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks plates, openings and fittings exposed during fabrication shall be inspected carefully to make sure that any defects have been uncovered, as well as to determine that the work has been performed properly.Minor defects found may be repaired only after the inspector approves the method and extent of repairs. Materials that have more than minor defects that cannot be satisfactorily repaired shall be rejected.Spot radiographic or ultrasonic examination shall be not less than 6 in. extending along the weld. Spot radiography shall comply with the standards given in 7.15.1.3. Where spot radiographic or ultrasonic examination is applied at joint intersections, the surface shall be prepared and examined for a distance of 3 in. on each side of the intersection, making the minimum length of examination 6 in. on the horizontal weld and 3 in. on the vertical weld.

Corrosion of the API Std 650 mechanically-anchored steel 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 Std 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks body decreases and corrosion cracks occur.
