ASTM A524 pipe API 650 liquid storage tanks

The application of API 650 is as stated by the American Petroleum Institute: The production and installation of our ground welded steel API 650 liquid storage tanks storage tanks are generally used in industry; under normal circumstances, the storage tanks installed on the industrial site in the United States are in accordance with API 650, API 620 and API 12d Standards are established.

Low-pressure Storage Tanks for Liquefied Hydrocarbon Gases
API 650 liquid storage tanks Primary Components: In general, primary components include those components that may be stressed to a significant level, those whose failure would permit leakage of the liquid being stored, those exposed to a refrigerated temperature between –60°F and –270°F, and those that are subject to thermal shock. The primary components shall include, but will not be limited to, the following parts of a single-wall tank or of the inner tank in a double-wall tank: shell plates; bottom plates; roof plates; knuckle plates; compression rings; shell stiffeners; and manways and nozzles including reinforcement, shell anchors, pipe, tubing, forgings, and bolting.

The specifications used in the design of large oil tanks, API 650 liquid storage tanks mainly include American Petroleum Institute Standard API 650, Japanese Industrial Standard JIS B8501, British Industrial Standard BS2654 and Chinese National Standard GB50341 from a global perspective. The formulas used in each specification are based on the hoop stress in the membrane theory. Each specification is based on the performance characteristics of materials and the construction technology level of their respective countries to determine the allowable stresses and weld coefficients. Therefore, the calculation results of tank wall thickness of API 650 liquid storage tanks with the same volume are sometimes quite different according to different specifications.

"Adhere to green development, implement basic national policies to conserve resources and protect the environment, and take the goal of creating a resource-saving and environment-friendly iron and steel joint enterprise to promote the construction of ecological civilization.Strengthen the construction of core talents, further release the talents' innovative wisdom and innovation potential, and promote the efficient and high-quality development of enterprises. Adhere to the people-oriented principle, persist in relying on employees for development, share development results with employees, and build a harmonious enterprise."

The mode of iron and API 650 liquid storage tanks steel logistics transportation is mainly intercontinental ocean shipping and inland rail transportation. European ports have been very mature after years of development, such as Hamburg in Germany, Rotterdam in the Netherlands and Antwerp in Belgium. Relying on the huge market of the European Union, these ports are positioned in the logistics distribution function of cargo distribution and large import and export, and play a great role in the transportation of API 650 liquid storage tanks steel logistics.
