API Std 650 open top welded storage tanks shell reinforcing plates

API 650 petroleum storage tank stipulates that if the thickness of the lower siding obtained by calculating the anti-overturning moment is greater than the thickness of the API Std 650 open top welded storage tanks hydrostatic pressure test (both do not include the corrosion margin), the calculated thickness of the above siding required by the hydrostatic pressure is It should also be increased by the same proportion, unless special analysis is performed to determine the seismic overturning moment and corresponding stress at the bottom of each layer of API 650 petroleum storage tank wall.

Service Conditions and Hydrogen-induced Cracking
When the service conditions might include the presence of hydrogen sulfide or other conditions that may promote hydrogen-induced cracking effects, particularly near the bottom of the API Std 650 open top welded storage tanks shell at the shell-to-bottom connections, care shall be taken to ensure that the materials and details of construction of the tank are adequate to resist hydrogen- induced cracking. The Purchaser shall consider restricting the sulphur content of the material to be stored through thickness testing of the steel, laboratory surveillance tests, and the use of internal tank coatings to reduce the possibility of hydrogen-induced cracking.

The preparatory work before the construction of the API Std 650 open top welded storage tanks is directly related to the quality assurance, project progress, construction safety and other aspects of the entire oil tank project. Therefore, the preparation work before the API Std 650 open top welded storage tanks construction should be paid attention to and planned. Before API Std 650 open top welded storage tanks construction, you need to prepare conventional machinery, materials, and facilities, as well as the quality control of the project, such as the installation method of the API Std 650 open top welded storage tanks, the welding method of the steel plate, and the inspection of the tank material. In addition, there is the most important item, construction safety protection.

The formula of enterprise success is: success = strategy × organizational capability, that is, having the right direction and strong organizational capability. The core competence of an enterprise depends on three pillars: first, talents (talent echelon); second, core values of enterprise culture; third, organizational governance model. If the enterprise is a tree, then the core values of talents, corporate culture and organizational governance mode are just like the root of the tree. With them, the enterprise will flourish and grow forever.
