ASTM A216 grade WCA external floating roofs API Std 650 self anchored flatbottom tanks

In this project, an elemental area of API 620 oil storage tank wall is constructed of ASTM A516 Grade 55 steel plate subjected to a meridional unit force, T1, of 2620 lbf/in. tension and a latitudinal unit force, T2, of 2880 lbf/in. compression. The meridional radius of curvature, R1, is 132 in., and the length of the normal from the surface to the axis of revolution, R2, is 409 in. The joints in the wall are spot-radiographed, double-welded butt joints, and no corrosion allowance is required.
The problem in this example is to graphically find the minimum thickness of tank wall required for the given conditions (see API 620 tank standard 5.10.3.3).
Solution: As determined from Table 5-1, the maximum, allowable tensile stress value, Sts, for ASTM A516 Grade 55 steel plate in simple tension is 16,500 lbf/in.2. Since the compressive stress is latitudinal, the governing value of R for this situation is R1, or 132 in.

API 650 petroleum storage tanks are used for API Std 650 self anchored flatbottom tanks storage. API 650 petroleum storage tanks can be made of carbon steel, austenitic stainless steel and nickel alloy (only for low temperature). Welding API Std 650 self anchored flatbottom tanks certification is regulated by Section 10 of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). For API 650 petroleum storage tanks, non-destructive inspections are required, but third-party inspections are not required.

In 2015 , We get the tender from Myanmar Government, the total quantity is 1200 ton ABS-AH36 steel plate, we supply the steel plate with painting ( which standard is according to ISO SA2.5) with gray Color 20 Micron. After Get Customer Contract, Steel Plate Are Produced within 25 days .Then, Goods transported to Tianjin Port And Shipping On Time To Statisfy With Project Expected After Finished Producing. The Steel Quality API Std 650 self anchored flatbottom tanks we offered receive good Praise from our Customers .

Due to the volatility of oil products, the volatile consumption of oil products is inevitable in the storage process of large oil storage tanks such as API Std 650 self anchored flatbottom tanks. The volatilization of oil causes economic losses and pollution to the environment. Especially in the open air environment, large-scale oil storage tanks in the petrochemical industry will continue to accumulate energy when exposed to the sun, causing their surface and interior to heat up rapidly, causing sun overheating, and accelerating the volatilization of oil. How to effectively reduce the volatile consumption of large oil storage tanks?

In addition to quality assurance, service is also important for the competition of steel suppliers. All the after-sales service personnel of the company have received professional training and assessment. The steel products supplied by our company enjoy the life-long quality problem replacement service. In the process of using our steel API Std 650 self anchored flatbottom tanks products, if there is any problem, just contact us in time, and our after-sales service personnel will look for countermeasures and solve the problem with you as soon as possible.
