ASTM A234 pipe API standard 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks

API 650 petroleum storage tanks are used for API standard 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel 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 standard 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel 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.

Due to irregular operation of API standard 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks welding, there are many weld deformations during the construction process. Before specific operations, most construction units have formulated relatively complete construction plans and set up special welding process instructions, but the operators have not fully performed welding in accordance with various process guidance requirements and construction specifications, resulting in some quality problems of oil storage tanks. How can we reduce or even avoid this kind of situation?

Manufacturer’s Report and CertificateUpon completion of all tests and inspections on each tank API standard 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks, the Manufacturer shall prepare a report summarizing all the data on the tank, including foundations (if they are within the Manufacturer’s scope of responsibility) and shall attach to the report all drawings and charts as required by other paragraphs in this section of the rules (see API 620 tank 7.13 and Appendix M).The tank Manufacturer shall furnish and fill out a certificate for each tank (such as that shown in Appendix M), attesting that the tank has been constructed according to the rules in this standard. This certificate shall be signed by the Manufacturer and the Purchaser’s inspector.
