API Std 650 stainless steel storage tanks gauge wells

In the event of continuous heavy rainfall, the inspection of the API Std 650 stainless steel storage tanks farm should be strengthened to monitor and pay close attention to the soil moisture content of the tank farm in order to quickly take emergency measures. Check whether the seals of the oil unloading port and the oil measuring port are in good condition in time to prevent rainwater from leaking into the API Std 650 stainless steel storage tanks from the oil unloading port and the oil measuring port, which will affect the oil quality.

Shell Stiffening Rings for Tanks That Contain Liquid
Internal or external shell stiffening rings may be required to maintain roundness when the tank is subjected to wind, vacuum, or other specified loads. When API Std 650 stainless steel storage tanks stiffening rings are required, the stiffener-to-shell weld details shall be in accordance with Figure Q-1 and Q.3.5.2 through Q.3.5.5.
Three-plate laps or butt-weld junctions in tank bottoms shall be not closer than 12 in. from each other or from the butt-welds of the annular plates.
Bottom plates, other than annular bottom plates for a 9% or 5% nickel steel or stainless steel tank that contains liquid, may have a minimum thickness of 3/16 in. exclusive of any specified corrosion allowance.

API 650 is the standard for welded tanks for oil storage. It specifies the design, manufacturing, welding, inspection and installation requirements of oil tanks. API 650 API Std 650 stainless steel storage tanks is widely used in storage tanks with internal pressure less than or equal to 2.5 PSI, used to store products such as crude oil, gasoline, chemicals, and produced water. BBN has extensive experience in API Std 650 stainless steel storage tanks API 650 tanks with diameters between 8'-300', suitable for refineries, terminals, pipeline facilities and other customers.

The trend of international shipping development of large-scale ships and strategic joint ventures puts forward higher requirements for modern ports. Modern ports no longer use the general cargo throughput as a measure sign, and container throughput will become the main sign to measure the role and status of modern ports. The average container capacity in 2000 is 3200teu, and it is expected to be 5500teu in 2020.
