API 650 welded storage tanks alternate designs

The characteristics of the API 650 welded storage tanks internal floating roof structure of API 650 petroleum storage tanks: the inner floating roof or inner floating plate refers to the floating roof that floats on the liquid surface of the oil tank with the oil and liquid up and down. The API 650 welded storage tanks inner floating roof is used to cover the liquid. The surface is currently recognized as the most ideal and most economical and practical way to reduce oil evaporation loss.

API 650 welded storage tanks Oil measuring hole: The oil measuring hole is used to measure the height, temperature and sampling of the oil stored in the tank, and is installed near the tank top platform. API 650 welded storage tanks Fire extinguisher: The fire extinguisher (also known as the flame arrestor) of the oil tank is composed of a fire box, a copper wire mesh and an aluminum partition. It is installed under the breathing valve or safety valve to prevent sparks and air from entering the inside of the tank through the breathing valve or safety valve and causing accidents.

Preheating should be performed by heating and maintaining this heat in appreciable lengths of the joint to be welded, preferably using a strip burner with a mild flame rather than a harsh flame such as that from a cutting torch. Electrical strip heaters are available and have been found to be satisfactory. The preheat of 300°F should be checked with a temperature-sensitive crayon, or similarly accurate means, so that the steel 4 in. (or four times the API 650 welded storage tanks plate thickness, whichever is greater) on each side of the joint will be maintained at the minimum preheat temperature. Ring burners or heaters are recommended for nozzle and manway welds. At no time during the welding should the base metal fall below a temperature of 300°F.

Customer service center has provided after-sales service for many large-scale information systems, and has accumulated rich working experience in the process of API 650 welded storage tanks service for many years. It can provide accurate, timely and high-quality support and service for users, which is well received by users.

The main competitive means adopted by major domestic ports are to expand ports, build deep-water berths and channels, improve service quality to reduce the comprehensive cost of customers, and at the same time, to improve competitive advantage, we should also take appropriate measures to reduce relevant costs and prices.
