The operating temperature of API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank

In this project, an elemental area of tank wall used is constructed of ASTM A442 Grade 55 steel plate subjected to a meridional unit force, T1, of 4000 lbf/in.2 tension and a latitudinal unit force, T2, of 5060 lbf/in.2 compression. The meridional radius of curvature, R1, is 75 in., and the length of the normal from the surface to the axis of revolution, R2, is 300 in. The joints in the wall are of double-welded butt-joint construction with a tensile efficiency of 85%. A corrosion allowance of 1/16 in. is required.
The problem in this example is to graphically find the minimum thickness of tank wall required for the given conditions (see 5.10.3.3).
Solution: As determined from Table 5-1, the maximum allowable tensile stress value, Sts, for ASTM A442 Grade 55 steel plate in simple tension is 16,500 lbf/in.2. Since the compressive stress is latitudinal, the governing value of R in this situation is R1, or 75 in.

API was established in 1919. It is the first national-level business association in the United States. It is one of the earliest and most successful chambers of commerce in the world to formulate standards. An important task of API API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank is to be responsible for API 650 oil storage tanks and natural gas. Standardization of industrial equipment to ensure the safety, reliability and interchangeability of equipment used in the industry.

In December, 2018, our Vietnam customer purchased 352 tons SA387Gr12Cl2 and SA387Gr11Cl2 API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank steel plates for their tank fabrication project. The customer need those cargo urgently, and we keep many stock in warehouse , it only takes about 3days we collect total cargo for shipping to customer. The customer are very appreciate our quality and service. They API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank become our regular customer and repeat order to us every month.

The foundation design of the API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank should meet the requirements of foundation stability and deformation, that is, the API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank foundation should not be crushed and the uneven settlement value of the foundation should be within the allowable range. The uneven settlement of the storage tank foundation should be specified in the design process of the safe allowable range, because excessive uneven settlement will reduce the safety of the API standard 650 stainless and carbon steel tank and cause distortion and deformation of the tank wall and bottom plate.

The company has passed the ISO9001: 2008 quality system certification, strictly implemented the ISO9001 quality management system. Besides, we have continuously improved the after-sales service network to make every effort to provide more convenient, accurate and faster services for all customers. We will supervise the production, control the quality in the factory, Inspect the cargo before shipment, Issue the test report to sales department. From the steel prodcution to steel delivery, we always focus the whole process.
