API Std 650 mixed material tanks guide pole erection tolerance requirements

Tanks which are designed following rules and guidelines of API 650 are API 650 tanks. API 650 API Std 650 mixed material tanks is the governing code for Welded tanks for Oil storage normally operating in the atmospheric pressure range. The code API 650 provides guidelines for design, fabrication, material, erection, and inspection of welded vertical and cylindrical storage tanks. Such API Std 650 mixed material tanks Tanks must be above ground with a closed or open top.

During the use of API Std 650 mixed material tanks, the tank material is prone to crack and leakage under the action of pressure, corrosion, wear and other conditions. Especially in the oil producing area, the temperature difference in four seasons is large and the natural environment is bad, which will accelerate the consumption of oil storage tank and cause many potential safety hazards. Therefore, the API Std 650 mixed material tanks must undergo strict inspections before being put into use after the production and installation are completed, so as to avoid cracks and leakage in short-term use and affect production safety.

API 620 Tank Standard Post-heat Treatment (Stress Relief)
The post-heat treatment now performed on pressure vessels is of established value, although the mechanism by which the improvement is realized may be open to debate. Post-heat treatment of API Std 650 mixed material tanks tank sections when the plate thickness exceeds 11/4 in. is required as stated in 5.25. In special cases, the possibilities of post-heat treatment after erection should be explored. Post-heating an insulated tank may be possible if an ample source of heat is readily available and if the rigidity of the tank is adequate.
The thermal stress-relief treatment performed on pressure vessels is recognized as a means for reducing the probability of brittle failures.
