30ft diameter API standard 650 flat-bottom steel tanks
Inspection of API standard 650 flat-bottom steel tanks bottom: magnetic flux leakage scanning technology is used to detect the corrosion condition of API standard 650 flat-bottom steel tanks bottom plate (such as corrosion depth and area, crack length, etc.). When there is a defect in the bottom plate of the API standard 650 flat-bottom steel tanks, the magnetic field distribution will change and the sensor can detect it. The bottom of the oil tank should be free of foreign matters and dry during testing. Weld inspection of API standard 650 flat-bottom steel tanks bottom plate: when vacuum leak test method is used to detect the tightness of oil tank bottom plate, soap water shall be applied to the weld and vacuum box shall be covered for observation.
Any joints between the adjacent sections of API 620 oil storage tank stiffening rings, as shown in Figure Q-1, shall be made so that the required moment of inertia of the combined ring-shell section is provided. Weld joints between adjacent sections shall be made with full-thickness and full-penetration butt-welds. Stiffening-ring butt-welds may employ metal backing strips. Backing strips and the associated welding shall be made in a manner that provides a smooth contour in the rat hole and all other weld joint ends. All weld passes shall be started at the rat hole and other weld joint ends and shall be completed by moving away from these ends. Passes shall be overlapped away from edges to provide a smooth continuous weld.
