API Std 650 aluminum storage tanks design pressure

Shell Stiffening Rings for Tanks That Contain Liquid
Internal or external shell stiffening rings may be required to maintain roundness when the tank is subjected to wind, vacuum, or other specified loads. When API Std 650 aluminum storage tanks stiffening rings are required, the stiffener-to-shell weld details shall be in accordance with Figure Q-1 and Q.3.5.2 through Q.3.5.5.
Three-plate laps or butt-weld junctions in tank bottoms shall be not closer than 12 in. from each other or from the butt-welds of the annular plates.
Bottom plates, other than annular bottom plates for a 9% or 5% nickel steel or stainless steel tank that contains liquid, may have a minimum thickness of 3/16 in. exclusive of any specified corrosion allowance.

In API 650 oil storage tank, when the mixing ratio of combustible medium and air reaches a certain limit, it is easy to cause explosion. Therefore, it is necessary to add API Std 650 aluminum storage tanks external floating roof to open cylindrical steel API Std 650 aluminum storage tanks tank. At present, the external floating roof is most suitable for large-scale API 650 oil storage tank in China, ranging from 20000, 30000, 50000 cubic meters to 100000 cubic meters.

Good news: The largest steel importer in Nigeria ordered 4068 tons API 5L X52Q PSL2 3LPE seamless pipes and also ordered 8 pcs 42699.6 m³big diameter Crude oil storage doom roof tank in A537CL2 steel grade. In Sep 2019, This Nigeria client visited our company and factory, they were very satisfied with our company's quality control,production capacity and service. We also have reached a agreement for Phase II Project, It is also with another 10,000 tons APl 5L X52Q PSL2 3LPE seamless pipes.

API Std 650 aluminum storage tanks, floating roof tank is composed of vertical cylindrical tank wall and floating roof, which is floating on the surface of liquid storage. The volume of floating roof storage tank is generally large, and its bottom plate is arched edge plate. The difference between floating roof tank and other types of storage tank is that there is a floating top cover floating on the surface of liquid storage, and the top cover floats up and down with the rise and fall of liquid storage.
