How to limit evaporation of liquid contents from API standard 650 flexible liquid storage tanks

The API 650 oil tank stiffener ring and backing strip, if used, are primary components, and they shall comply with the requirements of R.2.1. The API standard 650 flexible liquid storage tanks stiffener ring may be fabricated from plate using an intermittent weld on alternating sides between the web and the flange. One rat hole with a minimum radius of 3/4 in. shall be provided at each longitudinal shell joint and ring juncture weld.

Test welds of each API 650 tank nozzle and manway reinforcing pad (or each section of multiple piece pad) using dry air and apply a soap solution test in the presence of Purchaser's Inspector before hydro testing the API standard 650 flexible liquid storage tanks tank. Tap one inch NPT test hole in each pad or section.

In year 2015, we supplied 950 tons S355J0 angle steel to Egypt government. We have cooperation with local government for more than 3 years. Every year, they would order more than 3000 tons of API standard 650 flexible liquid storage tanks steel from our company.

The process parameters should be strictly controlled in sand blasting of API standard 650 flexible liquid storage tanks. The working pressure of abrasive chamber is between 0.5 and 0.6a, and the outlet pressure of air compressor shall not be lower than 0.6 WPa. According to the test results, the distance between nozzle and workpiece shall be controlled at 80 - 200 mm and spraying angle of 30 ~ 75°is appropriate.

First of all, we should establish a correct concept of after-sales service. Service concept is an important part of corporate culture and a long-term enterprise value concept. Our company's after-sales service embodies the concept of "customer first, sincere service for customers". As long as we are in the "sincere service for users" under the guidance of the idea, I believe we will get rich returns.
