API Std 650 storage tank floating suction line

X-ray inspection is mainly applicable to the internal inspection of pressure bearing parts and materials of metal oil tanks such as API Std 650 storage tank. It can clearly find the blocky defects inside the welded joints. However, the cost and resource consumption of radiographic testing are large. Magnetic particle testing can effectively detect the surface and near surface defects of API Std 650 storage tank etc. metal oil tanks, but magnetic particle testing can not effectively identify the internal defects of oil tanks.

The API Std 650 storage tank stiffener ring and backing strip (if used) are primary components, and they shall comply with the requirements of API 620 storage steel tank Q.2.1. The stiffener rings may be fabricated from plate using an intermittent weld on alternating sides between the web and the flange.
Except for aluminum or stainless steel tanks, all fillet welds shall consist of a minimum of two passes. The ends of the fillet welds shall be 2 in. from the rat hole (see Figure Q-1), and these welds shall be deposited by starting 2 in. from the rat hole and welding away from the rat hole. An acceptable alternative to the detail that includes stopping fillet welds 2 in. short of the rat hole would be to weld continuously through the rat hole from one side of the stiffener to the opposite side. All craters in fillet welds shall be repaired by back welding.

API 650 external floating roof storage tanks are generally called external floating roof API Std 650 storage tank tanks, which means that the storage tanks are externally open tanks without a dome design, and are equipped with vertical floating roofs. API 650 external floating roof storage tanks are usually used for large More than 20,000 cubic meters of open steel API Std 650 storage tank storage tanks for storing volatile petroleum products such as crude oil, gasoline, kerosene, etc.
