API 650 petroleum storage tanks are used for API Std 650 welded steel storage tanks storage. API 650 petroleum storage tanks can be made of carbon steel, austenitic stainless steel and nickel alloy (only for low temperature). Welding API Std 650 welded steel storage tanks certification is regulated by Section 10 of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). For API 650 petroleum storage tanks, non-destructive inspections are required, but third-party inspections are not required.

All oil tanks have service life. Due to the pressure of the oil stored on the tank and the corrosion of the oil and external environment on the tank, the oil storage tank will gradually become thin or crack after a long time. Due to the different materials and environment of API Std 650 welded steel storage tanks, the consumption of API Std 650 welded steel storage tanks is different, so it should be taken into account when evaluating the remaining service life of API Std 650 welded steel storage tanks.
