World economic, and many industries has built depending on it as crude oil extortion or on it's products.For this reasons a lot of petroleum equipments has designed and improved to achieve the target of it .The tanks are one of this equipments and can also be considered of important one it exists in different stages of petroleum industry from crude extortion in fields to refinery to marketing .For the important of the tanks many of standard and design are issued for tanks design and fabrication like:1.API standard 620. design and construction of large, weld, low pressure storage tanks.2.API 650. weld steel tanks for oil storage .3.API 651. cathodic protection of above -ground petroleum storage tanks .4.API 652. lining of above -ground petroleum storage tanks bottom.5.API 653 . tank inspection, repair, alteration, and reconstruction .In this Book we try to show some feature about: Tanks duties and importance .How we can choose the suitable type of tanks .Various types of tanks and it's shapes .Tanks design considerations for it's main components .Tanks clean out procedure for maintenance and repair Inspection of tanks .Tanks maintenance and repair Tanks tests after maintenance jobs

Covers All Site Activities after DesignAbove Ground Storage Tanks: Practical Guide to Construction, Inspection, and Testing is an ideal guide for engineers involved in the mechanical construction of above ground storage tanks. This text details the construction of storage tanks in accordance with the American Petroleum Institute requirements for AP

The one reference devoted exclusively to ASTs, this book assembles the most critical information on the subject in a single convenient volume. The result is an ideal tool for chemical, environmental, and civil engineers, as well as management and government personnel and others concerned with the regulatory issues governing ASTs. Section by section, this complete reference thoroughly examines and clarifies various types of storage media and their applications; fundamental environmental engineering concerns; industrial codes and standards for ASTs; AST design considerations; the proper construction, fabrication, and erection of tanks; and the often-confusing requirements designed to keep ASTs environmentally sound.

Storage Tank Emergencies, Second Edition is designed to provide public safety and industry emergency response personnel with the background information, general procedures and response guidelines to be followed when operating at incident involving bulk storage tanks and facilities.

This timely reference surveys manufacturing and installation methods, standards, and specifications of factory-made steel storage tanks and appurtenances for petroleum, chemicals, hydrocarbons, and other flammable or combustible liquids. It chronicles the trends toward secondary containment, aboveground storage tanks, and corrosion-resistant underground steel storage systems. Written by over 20 leading experts in industry, this handbook discusses relevant fire safety and building codes, construction specifications, and environmental regulations, making it a valuable asset for chemical, pollution, environmental, industrial, mechanical, and civil engineers, to name only a few.
