API Std 650 cylindrical tanks for small internal pressures

The API Std 650 cylindrical tanks stiffener ring and backing strip (if used) are primary components, and they shall comply with the requirements of API 620 storage steel tank Q.2.1. The stiffener rings may be fabricated from plate using an intermittent weld on alternating sides between the web and the flange.
Except for aluminum or stainless steel tanks, all fillet welds shall consist of a minimum of two passes. The ends of the fillet welds shall be 2 in. from the rat hole (see Figure Q-1), and these welds shall be deposited by starting 2 in. from the rat hole and welding away from the rat hole. An acceptable alternative to the detail that includes stopping fillet welds 2 in. short of the rat hole would be to weld continuously through the rat hole from one side of the stiffener to the opposite side. All craters in fillet welds shall be repaired by back welding.

API 650 is used to store products such as crude oil, gasoline, chemicals, and produced water. BBN has extensive experience in API Std 650 cylindrical tanks API 650 tanks with diameters between 8'-300', which are suitable for refineries, terminals, pipeline facilities and other projects.

We exported 352 tons SA387GR12CL2 steel plates to Vietnam. The Vietnam customer needed the SA387GR12CL2 steel plates for their tank fabrication project urgently. We are world class steel materials supplier and exporter. Other than regular fresh production, we also keep huge stocks, so as to meet urgent demands of our customers. For the 352 tons SA387GR12CL2 steel API Std 650 cylindrical tanks plates, we collected from our warehouse and it only took us 3 days to arrange delivery. The customer was really impressed by our rapid shipping and spoke highly of our SA387GR12CL2 steel plates quality after use.

To scientifically evaluate the remaining service life of the API Std 650 cylindrical tanks, it is necessary to know the thickness change and development trend of the storage tank sheet after long-term use, combined with the metal characteristics of the storage tank, the influence of various external conditions and the continuous change of the oil pressure in the API Std 650 cylindrical tanks, etc. factors to judge. Because the metal characteristics, corrosion defects, load and other numerical parameters of the API Std 650 cylindrical tanks are randomly changed, the value of the remaining service life of the storage tank will also be dynamic.

The company has passed the ISO9001: 2008 quality system certification, strictly implemented the ISO9001 quality management system. Besides, we have continuously improved the after-sales service network to make every effort to provide more convenient, accurate and faster services for all customers. We will supervise the production, control the quality in the factory, Inspect the cargo before shipment, Issue the test report to sales department. From the steel prodcution to steel delivery, we always focus the whole process.
