14、n Petroleum InstituteiiiFOREWORDThis standard provides rules for testing the deck ttings of external oating roofs underlaboratory conditions to provide evaporative loss information. It was prepared by TaskGroup II of the API Environmental Technical Advisory Group (ETAG).Testing programs conducted by

15、 API in 1984 and 1993 provided the information on whichthe current evaporative loss factors are based for common, generic types of external oating-roof deck ttings. These factors are published in the API Manual of Petroleum MeasurementStandards,Chapter 19. 2, for use in estimating the evaporative lo

16、ss of petroleum stocks fromoating-roof tanks. These factors and the test methods used to develop them have beenwidely accepted by oil companies, manufacturers, industry groups, regulatory agencies, andgeneral interest groups. API has not, however, tested or developed evaporative loss factorsfor prop

17、rietary designs of individual manufacturers. By publishing a testing protocol, API ismaking the test method available to interested parties who wish to test particular deck ttingsunder the auspices of API. API certication of an evaporative loss factor developed through this program is subject tothe

18、following three-step process:a. The testing shall be performed in laboratories licensed by API. The requirements to qual-ify for licensure are presented in the API Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards(MPMS), Chapter 19.3, Part G.b. Testing and determination of test results shall be performed as

19、 specied herein.c. The evaluation of these test results and the certication of an evaporative loss factor forthe item tested shall then be conducted in accordance with the API MPMS, Chapter 19.3,Part F.API publications may be used by anyone desiring to do so. Every effort has been made bythe Institu

20、te to assure the accuracy and reliability of the data contained in them; however, theInstitute makes no representation, warranty, or guarantee in connection with this publicationand hereby expressly disclaims any liability or responsibility for loss or damage resultingfrom its use or for the violati

21、on of any federal, state, or municipal regulation with which thispublication may conict.Suggested revisions are invited and should be submitted to the Measurement Coordinator,American Petroleum Institute, 1220 L Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20005.CONTENTSPage0 INTRODUCTION . . . . . . . . . . . .
