Design and construction of foundations for API Std 650 liquid storage tanks

BBN can provide design, manufacture and installation of API 650 large oil and crude oil storage tanks. We can build a API Std 650 liquid storage tanks 7,000,000 gallon API 650 petroleum storage tank. In addition, BBN has the means to construct multiple storage tanks at the same time. We are very experienced in providing API 650 petroleum storage tanks.

In this project, an area of tank wall is constructed of ASTM A285, Grade C, steel plate that is 5/8-in. thick and has spot-radiographed, double-welded butt joints. The wall is subject to tension in a meridional direction and to compression in a latitudinal direction. The values of R1 and R2 at the point under consideration are 75 in. and 300 in. respectively. A corrosion allowance of 1/16 in. is required. The computed (meridional) tensile stress, stc, in the net thickness after deduction of the corrosion allowance is 6000 lbf/in.2.
The problem in this example is to find the maximum allowable (latitudinal) compressive stress value for the given conditions, in conformance with the provisions of API 620 tank standard 5.5.4.5.

During heavy rain, closely observe the change of the water level in the storage area of the API Std 650 liquid storage tanks. If the water level rises to the dangerous range, drain the water immediately. There are more thunderstorms in heavy rain, and lightning protection devices should be installed in the API Std 650 liquid storage tanks area to avoid lightning accidents. Observe the groundwater level of the API Std 650 liquid storage tanks area at any time, clean and dredge the drainage ditch in time to ensure unobstructed drainage, and prevent the bottom of the API Std 650 liquid storage tanks from leaking and rusting due to untimely drainage.

Safety production is the cornerstone of enterprise survival and development. The company established a safety management network, which achieved clear powers and responsibilities, clear responsibilities, effective management and control, and provided organizational guarantee for safe production. The company strictly complies with the "Environmental Protection Law", establishes an effective environmental protection emission control system and waste gas, waste water, waste solid recycling system, and makes great efforts to harden, lighten, green, and beautify the plant, and strive to build green steel enterprises.

We have efficient and quick logistic team service. We promise that after the customer places the order, the spot products will be shipped, processed, and cut on the same day. The steel API Std 650 liquid storage tanks products will be shipped in 2-5 days according to the characteristics of the product. The company has always been adhering to the service concept of "integrity, pragmatism, enthusiasm" and dedicated to providing our customers with high-quality steel products and after-sales service.

The results of adopting two-level API Std 650 liquid storage tanks service system and implementing standardized management are mainly reflected in the formation of vigorous work style such as quick response and quick action. Our company's customer service center stipulates that employees must be accurate and quick in technical support and API Std 650 liquid storage tanks after-sales service. Through the formation of this fast, agile, vigorous style, to provide users with satisfactory service.
