API Std 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks for elevated temperature service

API 650 is the standard for welded tanks for oil storage. It specifies the design, manufacturing, welding, inspection and installation requirements of oil tanks. API 650 API Std 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks is widely used in storage tanks with internal pressure less than or equal to 2.5 PSI, used to store products such as crude oil, gasoline, chemicals, and produced water. BBN has extensive experience in API Std 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks API 650 tanks with diameters between 8'-300', suitable for refineries, terminals, pipeline facilities and other customers.

The preparatory work before the construction of the API Std 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks is an important part of the oil tank project. Material purchase preparation before the construction of the API Std 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks:
Before API Std 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks construction, all materials shall be purchased and prepared, and the specifications and quality of materials shall be inspected to see if they meet the construction operation requirements. Fire and rain proof measures should be taken when storing materials. Paint should be stored in a ventilated and dry place.

Allowable Design Stresses
The maximum allowable design stresses for the API Std 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks materials outlined in Q.2.1 shall be in accordance with Table Q-3.The values for the allowable design tensile stress given in Table Q-3 for materials other than bolting steel are the lesser of (a) 331/3% of the specified minimum ultimate tensile strength for the material or (b) 662/3% of the specified minimum yield strength, but they are 75% of the specified minimum yield strength for the stainless steel, nickel alloy, and aluminum materials. Allowable test stresses are based on the limitation of API 620 oil tank storage standard Q.8.1.3.

Every after-sales service shall have a detailed record of the customer's product problems and handling methods. The records shall be sorted into volumes and filed on a monthly basis, and submitted to the technical department for filing. The problems found in the after-sales service shall be summarized in a timely manner, discussed with the technical department, the quality inspection department and the production department, and a proper solution shall be proposed for the technical department to improve in a timely manner;

The company's logistics and transportation department is responsible for developing high-quality third-party logistics companies, to coordinate and follow up the situation of steel materials transportation. Third-party logistics companies provide us with professional logistics services. With this logistics management method, the time for delivery of steel materials is faster, and the logistics service is professional, multifunctional and comprehensive.
