ASTM A181 forgings API standard 650 open-top tanks

Application scope of API 650 petroleum storage tank:
1. API standard 650 open-top tanks Working pressure: atmospheric storage tank;
2. API 650 petroleum storage tank working temperature: -30℃~150℃;
3. API 650 petroleum storage tank liquid medium: various oil products, including naphtha, gasoline, diesel, kerosene, crude oil, fuel oil, heavy oil, benzene, xylene, methanol, ethanol;
4. API 650 petroleum storage tank volume: current design considerations generally do not exceed 10,000 cubic meters.

The API standard 650 open-top tanks outer wall shall be designed for the purging and operating pressure of the space between the inner and outer tank shells and for the loading from the insulation, the pressure of wind forces, and the roof loading.
The outer tank bottom, shell, and roof shall have a minimum nominal thickness of 3/16 in. (7.65 lbf/ft2) and shall conform to the material requirements of Q.2.3.

Static storage loss is also known as "small breathing" consumption. The rise and fall of the temperature in the API standard 650 open-top tanks leads to the increase and decrease of the pressure in the tank, which makes the mixed oil gas discharged from the tank, and the external air is sucked into the tank, resulting in the oil consumption. Fluid level loss is also called "big breathing" loss. It is the oil consumption caused by the change of gas space volume in the API standard 650 open-top tanks during the oil receiving and sending operation, which causes the mixed oil gas to be discharged out of the tank, and the external air is sucked into the tank, resulting in the oil consumption due to the change of liquid level height.

We have a stable system and professional human resource management work as the support, from the six aspects of guidance, cohesion, incentive, constraint, radiation and stability, we continue to introduce, modify and train employees from concept to action, and shape employees through constant guidance of common values.
