The maximum capacity of API standard 650 ground supported tanks

Treatment of API standard 650 ground supported tanks welding defects:
1. Lack of fusion: once found, it should be shoveled and grinded off before re welding.
2. Incomplete penetration: over standard defects shall be removed and re welded. When welding on both sides, the shallow side of the groove can be grinded and shoveled to expose the welding root on one side, and then the welding is repaired.
3. Slag inclusion: over standard defects shall be removed and re welded.
4. Crater: weld to full after grinding.
5. Air hole: if the internal air hole exceeds the standard, it shall be welded again after being removed by grinding shovel, and the surface air hole shall be removed by grinding wheel and then repaired.

The density of the liquid API 620 large welded, low pressure storage tanks stored shall be its maximum density within the range of design temperatures, but no less than 36 lbf/ft3. The maximum allowable tensile stress shall be taken from Table 5-1 or Table Q-3. For the maximum allowable stresses for design loading combined with wind or earthquake loads, see API Standard 620 5.5.6 for carbon steel and Q.3.3.5 for stainless steel and aluminum.

API 650 can store oil, gas, chemical, water and biofuel for some of the most common tanks in the oil industry. API 650 can store contents at a lower pressure (maximum of 2 PSI) but at much higher temperature (-40 degrees F to 500 degrees F) than the standards of API standard 650 ground supported tanks. It can be any tank size.
