API standard 650 mechanically-anchored tanks drain pipe

API 650 petroleum storage tank pipeline stress and product pressure, tank pressure, uniform or non-uniform temperature difference between the tank wall and the tank bottom, which cause the radial displacement and longitudinal rotation of the API standard 650 mechanically-anchored tanks tank wall at the opening to affect the oil tank wall The impact is obvious. Therefore, the design must ensure that the load applied by the external pipeline on the opening of the tank wall is within the safety limit. If the stress of the API standard 650 mechanically-anchored tanks connecting piping is not handled properly, the wall of the API 650 petroleum storage tank may deform or even rupture, causing a major accident.

In the event of continuous heavy rainfall, the inspection of the API standard 650 mechanically-anchored tanks farm should be strengthened to monitor and pay close attention to the soil moisture content of the tank farm in order to quickly take emergency measures. Check whether the seals of the oil unloading port and the oil measuring port are in good condition in time to prevent rainwater from leaking into the API standard 650 mechanically-anchored tanks from the oil unloading port and the oil measuring port, which will affect the oil quality.

API standard 650 mechanically-anchored tanks Visual InspectionUpon completion of all the foregoing tests, the pressure in the tank shall be released and a thorough visual inspection shall be made of both the inside and outside of the tank, giving particular attention to all internal ties, braces, trusses, and their attachments to the walls of the tank. Anchors shall be checked for snug tightness and adjusted if required. Anchor threads shall be fouled by peening or tack welding to prevent loosening. In lieu of thread fouling, double nuts may be used.Rate of Water Filling and Water TemperatureThe rate at which water is introduced into a tank for a hydrostatic test shall not exceed 3 ft of depth per hour. The foundation, venting equipment, or other conditions may limit the water filling to a lower rate. Pressure shall not be applied above the surface of the water before the tank and its contents are at about the same temperature.
