Nominal capacities of API Std 650 ground supported tanks

In this project, the area of tank wall used is of the same construction, material, and geometry as that described in F.1.3.1 except that the thickness of the plate is 3/8 in. The wall is stressed in the same manner as is described in F.1.3.1. A corrosion allowance of 1/16 in. is required. The computed (meridional) tensile stress, stc, in the net thickness after deduction of the corrosion allowance is 8000 lbf/in.2.
The problem in this example is to find the maximum allowable (latitudinal) compressive stress value for the given conditions, in conformance with the provisions of API 620 tank standard 5.5.4.5.
Solution: As determined from Table 5-1, the maximum allowable tensile stress value, Sts, for ASTM A285, Grade C, steel plate in simple tension is 16,500 lbf/in.2. Since the compressive stress is latitudinal, the governing value of R in this situation is R1, or 75 in.

Oil, Gas, Chemical, Water, and Bio-Fuel storage. Maximum of the most common welded steel tanks used in industry are designed following API 650. Tanks typically found in Refinery API Std 650 ground supported tanks tank farms, Terminals, Pipelines, and other process facilities use these tanks.

With the fast development in Myanmar, Myanmar navy build frigate every year. We Cooperate with Myanmar Navy from 2015. They purchased 412 ton LR AH36 steel plate from us as trial order in 2015. After receiving the API Std 650 ground supported tanks goods, they speak highly of the quality and our service. After that they purchase the shipbuilding steel plate from us regularly. In May,2018, the Myanmar navy’s local representative visit our office and production line, and sign another contract 2025 ton steel order in our office.

Prefabrication requirements of large vertical API Std 650 ground supported tanks accessories: the prefabrication shall be deepened as far as possible in strict accordance with the requirements of construction drawings and specifications, according to the principle of convenient installation and construction, as much as possible to reduce the installation workload, especially the workload of high-altitude operation. The prefabricated accessories shall be strictly inspected to ensure the quality and make marks. In addition, effective measures should be taken to prevent deformation, damage and corrosion during storage, transportation and stacking on site.

Customer first, reputation first, high-quality and perfect after-sales service is the extension of our product value and an important guarantee for the interests of customers. The purpose of our API Std 650 ground supported tanks service quality management system is to establish and constantly improve a scientific, reasonable and efficient service quality management system, and complete the after-sales service quality guarantee work of customers fairly, accurately and timely, For our company's API Std 650 ground supported tanks customer service to establish a good, comprehensive, full service system.
