API standard 650 flat-bottom steel tanks impact tests

All welded seams in the API standard 650 flat-bottom steel tanks bottom, and complete penetration and complete fusion sidewall-to-bottom welds, shall be inspected by means of a vacuum box test as described in Q.8.2.1. Sidewall-to-bottom welds not having complete penetration and complete fusion shall be inspected by means of either a vacuum box test of the inside weld as described in API 620 specification Q.8.2.1, or where approved by the Purchaser, a direct pressure solution film test as described in Q.8.2.2.

The working pressure of the low-pressure storage tank is greater than that of the atmospheric storage tank, but its pressure is less than 0.1MPa. API 650 petroleum storage tanks are classified according to their environment: Above-ground storage tank: refers to the bottom of the storage tank at the design elevation of API standard 650 flat-bottom steel tanks and above; the bottom of the tank is below the design elevation of +0.00 but not exceeding.

Deformation of the welding seam of the API standard 650 flat-bottom steel tanks is a common quality problem during the actual use of the API standard 650 flat-bottom steel 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 flat-bottom steel 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.

The after-sales service department will pay return visit to each customer by call or email, report problems found during the return visit in time, and discuss with the production and quality inspection center to propose effective solutions and follow up in a timely manner, so as to ensure the benefits each customer are fully guaranteed, and to provide customers with more value-added services.
