API standard 650 uplifting tanks shell nozzle flanges

Shell Stiffening Rings for Tanks That Contain Liquid
Internal or external shell stiffening rings may be required to maintain roundness when the tank is subjected to wind, vacuum, or other specified loads. When API standard 650 uplifting tanks stiffening rings are required, the stiffener-to-shell weld details shall be in accordance with Figure Q-1 and Q.3.5.2 through Q.3.5.5.
Three-plate laps or butt-weld junctions in tank bottoms shall be not closer than 12 in. from each other or from the butt-welds of the annular plates.
Bottom plates, other than annular bottom plates for a 9% or 5% nickel steel or stainless steel tank that contains liquid, may have a minimum thickness of 3/16 in. exclusive of any specified corrosion allowance.

In Appendix E to API 650 oil storage tank, the maximum values of inertia force, pulse pressure and convection pressure are superimposed, and tend to be conservative.In GB50341, only pulse pressure is calculated for API standard 650 uplifting tanks tanks below 5000 m.

The Peru customer has cooperated with us since April 2015, and then they purchased 300 tons A36 mild steel plates as trial order. Since then, they book more than 1000 tons from us every time, and about two times every year. They asked SGS test every time. Through our cooperation those years, we have built very good relationship and they entrust us to buy other related API standard 650 uplifting tanks products for them from China also. And they have introduced us good customers in Peru, among which there are also governmental projects. It is a win-win cooperation between us.

In the petrochemical industry and other industries, large vertical API standard 650 uplifting tanks are often used to store various production raw materials. Usually, the medium with high melting point and easy to crystallize at room temperature can be exported and used after heating, which involves the heating of large vertical storage tanks. The heating system is an auxiliary facility for heating of large vertical storage tank. It is often necessary to design external heating coil or internal heating coil system.
