API standard 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks welding requirements

The vent pipe mouth should be 4m or more above the ground. The nominal diameter of the API standard 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks API 650 petroleum storage tank vent pipe should be no less than 50mm and a flame arrestor should be installed.

Design of Compression-ring Regions
In this project, a cylindrical tank 30 ft in diameter is designed for an internal pressure of 5 lbf/in.2 gauge in the vapor space. The plate material is ASTM A131 Grade A steel for thicknesses of 1/2 in. and less. The top course of the butt- welded cylindrical sidewall is 1/4 in. thick, including a 1/16 in. corrosion allowance. The tank API standard 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks roof is a butt-welded spherical dome with an internal radius of 30 ft and a thickness of 1/4 in., including a 1/16 in. corrosion allowance. The maximum design liquid level is 6 in. below the plane of the juncture of the roof and sidewall.

Deformation of the welding seam of the API standard 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks is a common quality problem during the actual use of the API standard 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks, which easily causes the tank body to leak and affects the safety of the oil storage tank. The welding seam deformation of the API standard 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks is mainly caused by the lack of reserved welding seam gap and irregular operation. The oil storage tank has not reserved the corresponding weld gap, resulting in deeper root removal during the front welding activity. The heat output of the weld will increase under the influence of a long time, and the deformation of the weld will gradually become serious.
