API standard 650 aboveground oil storage tanks examiner

Tanks which are designed following rules and guidelines of API 650 are API 650 tanks. API 650 API standard 650 aboveground oil storage tanks is the governing code for Welded tanks for Oil storage normally operating in the atmospheric pressure range. The code API 650 provides guidelines for design, fabrication, material, erection, and inspection of welded vertical and cylindrical storage tanks. Such API standard 650 aboveground oil storage tanks Tanks must be above ground with a closed or open top.

Inspection of weld and micro crack of API standard 650 aboveground oil storage tanks: the inner and outer surface of API standard 650 aboveground oil storage tanks, weld and heat affected zone shall be observed by naked eyes first. 100% ultrasonic testing or 100% penetrant testing are carried out for butt welds of API standard 650 aboveground oil storage tanks. For the defects found by 100% magnetic particle inspection, dye detection, 100% ultrasonic inspection or 100% penetrant inspection, the radiographic inspection shall be used again to ensure the accuracy of the test results.

Soil Structure Interaction: Soil structure interaction per API 650, Section E.6.1.6 may be used for OLE design providing the damping ratio does not exceed 10 %.
Allowable Stresses
Design allowable stresses shall be per API 620 large welded steel storage tank, Section Q.3.3, including the 33 % increase permitted for earthquake loads.
Self-anchored Inner Tank
The anchorage ratio for a self-anchored inner tank, J, shall not exceed 1.0 for the OLE design combination to limit uplift and stresses in the annular plate and corner weld.
Foundation Stability
The overturning ratio defined in API 650, Section E.6.2.3, Equation (E.6.2.3-1) shall be equal to or greater than 3.0 for the defined OLE event.

In order to further transform the operation mechanism, establish the operation concept of "market-oriented, customer-centric", strive to improve our core competitiveness and promote the rapid development of business; further strengthen customer marketing management, subdivide customer groups, establish a top-down, crisscross, hierarchical marketing mechanism of "everyone is a marketer", and provide for the needs of different levels of customers Corresponding services.

Booking space and making power of attorney (ten copies of order); the data of the original order shall be correct and consistent to the greatest extent when making the order, so as to reduce the frequent changes in the subsequent process. For booking with the company's seal for booking space, if the accessories for booking space (such as the price confirmation document of the shipping company) need to be provided, they can only be booked with all of them. Obtain the shipping space allocation receipt and extract the ship name, voyage number and B / L number information.
