API Std 650 storage tank testing of the roof
The API 620 large storage tank nozzle neck is fabricated by welding from 1/2-in. plate. The materials in the tank wall, the nozzle neck, and the reinforcing pad conform to ASTM A442 Grade 55. The main joints in the tank wall are fully radiographed, double-welded butt joints. The longitudinal joint in the nozzle neck is of the same type API Std 650 storage tank but is not radiographed; however, the longitudinal joint and all other parts of the nozzle-and-wall-plate assembly have been shop stress relieved after fabrication, as required by 5.25. The adequacy of the reinforcement and attachment welds shown in Figure F-6 shall be determined.Before pressure test, the main drain hose system of API 650 petroleum storage tank floating roof should be thoroughly flushed. Provide blind flanges, gaskets and bolts required for the API Std 650 storage tank test (other types of covers are also required if necessary). Covers for maintenance shall be provided in accordance with the interfaces specified by API 650 petroleum storage tanks, and these seals shall remain in place after the test; and for those interfaces that are not provided for maintenance covers, the covers can be removed after the API Std 650 storage tank test.In April 8th, 2018, our Philiphine customer purchased 1008 Tons API 5L Gr.B ERW pipes &Q345B seamless steel pipe for offshore oildfield resources drilling project. This is a regular demand almost every two month, and we has been cooperated more than three times, totally around 2100 tons API 5L Gr.B steel pipeline since 2015 year. We can supply the relative certificated for the API 5L Gr.B ERW pipes products like SGS report, B/L &Form M, and mill test certificate.The hot weather in summer brings great security challenges to the vertical oil storage tanks, API Std 650 storage tank standing outdoors. We must find some simple and effective methods to protect the API Std 650 storage tank in order to make them safely spend the summer. As a API Std 650 storage tank manufacturer, in order to reduce the direct sunlight rate of the vertical oil tank, reduce the temperature change of the oil tank, and reduce the evaporation loss of the oil tank, we usually adopt the measures of applying sunscreen paint and washing with warm water.After sales service support personnel pay attention to commitment in their work.
