Fabrication of API standard 650 open top welded storage tanks
API 620 Tank DesignThe designer of these large tanks API standard 650 open top welded storage tanks shall supply the data on superimposed loadings to be assumed for the foundation design or, if there are no foundations, for direct loading on the subgrade. A slab or mat may be provided to support the superstructure and shall be considered to distribute the load more evenly over a lower natural subgrade compared with merely stripping, leveling, and rolling the existing grade.For simple spheroids or tanks of similar design, in which the distribution of the imposed weights shifts because the liquid level in combination with the vapor pressure may change the shape of the tank, the designer shall consider the possibility of such a change.
The inner layer of API 650 tank is the same as that of single layer tank. It is made of high-quality steel plate in strict accordance with the standard of "steel welded atmospheric pressure vessel". The thickness of API standard 650 open top welded storage tanks steel plate reaches the standard and the service life is longer.
In April 8th, 2018, our Philiphine customer purchased 1008 Tons API 5L Gr.B ERW pipes &Q345B seamless steel pipe for offshore oildfield resources drilling project. This is a regular demand almost every two month, and we has been cooperated more than three times, totally around 2100 tons API 5L Gr.B steel pipeline since 2015 year. We can supply the relative certificated for the API 5L Gr.B ERW pipes products like SGS report, B/L &Form M, and mill test certificate.
}The mechanical seal of floating roof API standard 650 open top welded storage tanks relies on mechanical force to press the sealing steel plate tightly against the tank wall, so that it can slide on the tank wall and avoid gap as far as possible. However, mechanical seal has high requirements for the geometry of storage tank and poor adaptability, so mechanical seal is rarely used in newly built floating roof API standard 650 open top welded storage tanks.
The company conducts periodic and targeted training and guidance for after-sales service personnel. As the saying goes, "no one is perfect, no gold is red", to help after-sales service personnel improve service skills and correct service attitude. Carry out relevant technical training for after-sales service personnel, so that after-sales service practitioners have professional product knowledge.
