32、 (2008)25. Significance and Use5.1 Inspection, repair, and construction of ASTs in petro-leum service should follow at a minimum the requirements ofAPI 650 and API 653. These standards describe methods fortesting the weld quality and structural and hydraulic integrityof new or repaired ASTs. With in

33、creasing emphasis on protect-ing the environment and with environmental issues related tothe storing of petroleum materials in ASTs, owners andoperators of such tanks may want or need a guide devoted toexisting and enhanced methods for evaluating the hydraulicintegrity of new or repaired tank bottom

34、s.5.2 The consequences of a tank bottom failure include theeconomic loss of product, cost of repair or replacing the tankbottom, and exposure to the cost of environmental remediationand potential damage or harm to adjacent lands that may giverise to adverse public relations or regulatory action. In

35、addition,releases of petroleum products introduce potential fire orexplosive conditions.5.3 Owners and operators of ASTs or their agents can usethis guide to help choose methods of evaluating the hydraulicintegrity of their repaired or new tank bottoms. Selection of themethods should be based on reg

36、ulatory and economic criteriathat include operational and cost/benefit considerations.5.4 This guide is intended for use by an individual experi-enced in repair and construction of ASTs in petroleum service.5.5 This guide is intended for use when repairing orbuilding ASTs and not intended for use be

37、yond the construc-tion process. This guide does not address suitability for use orimply useful life of an AST bottom.5.6 This guide is intended to be used in conjunction withand as a supplement to standards provided for hydraulicintegrity in API 650 and API 653.5.7 Procedures or methods included her

38、e may be supportedby a previously completed and documented performanceevaluation(s) that may lend itself as valuable results validation.6. Procedures6.1 This section provides information on established prac-tices described in API 650 and API 653. This section providesinformation on other practices l

39、isted in this guide as optionalduring a hydrostatic test, and which may be used to assess thehydraulic integrity of the tank bottom. Also identified in thissection are developing technologies that may be used inconjunction with a hydro-test, and may produce supplementalinformation about the hydrauli

40、c integrity of the completed tankbottom construction. Some of the procedures identified hereare recognized to be voluntary when used for attaining anenhanced confidence in the hydraulic integrity for a repaired ornewly constructed tank bottom. For those owners and operatorsthat already have procedur

41、es for determining the suitability ofthe tank bottom, this guide may serve as a reference whenpolicy warrants a change in their methods.6.2 Table identifies tests and procedures, and notes whenapplication of those tests or procedures will provide the mostuseful information for assessing the hydrauli

42、c integrity of tankbottom.6.3 Table 1 supplements the flow chart by listing theaccepted tests and procedures from API 650 and API 653,asareadily available reference, and also the developing technolo-gies. These API procedures, although established chiefly toassess tank structural soundness, are also

43、 useful for determin-ing the hydraulic soundness of tank bottom construction whenit has been repaired or newly constructed. Information relatingto the developing technologies may be employed by an ownerand operator in order to obtain hydraulic integrity and othersupplementary information during a hy

44、drostatic test.6.4 When using information provided in this section, con-siderations for schedule, operational, economic, and environ-mental characterizations should be reviewed. An owner andoperator or the owners and operators representative should befamiliar with conditions under which the tests an

45、d procedurescan be used and in the case of the developing technologies,API334 should be consulted.7. Evaluation Methods7.1 Procedures Prior to Filling and After Filling the Tank:7.1.1 The owner and operator of a tank, included bydefinition in this guide, will find that there are numerousprocedures a

46、ssociated with the determination of the hydraulicintegrity of a tank bottom. Of this total number of proceduresthere can be at least nine that are conducted prior to filling thetank and can be at least another four procedures that are appliedwith the tank either partially or completely filled to its

47、 safe fillheight.7.2 Evaluation of Floor Plate, Weld Construction Practices:7.2.1 Factors or conditions that contribute to tank bottomfailure are:7.2.1.1 Imperfections that may be included in steel plateduring manufacture.7.2.1.2 Gouging and tearing in steel plate can occur duringshipment and storag

48、e, and in moving the plates into finalposition for welding. Such damage can be the result ofimproper use of equipment for moving the plate or thedragging of the plates across one another or other constructionmaterials and rocks. The gouges and tears can compromise thestructural integrity and intende

49、d service life of the tank.7.2.1.3 Irregular surface continuities or voids in the struc-tural fill or concrete foundation can be a significant conditioncausing a bottom to fail and leak. The voids and projectionscreated by the sub-floor structural system irregularities willcause uneven stressing of the floor plates, seam welds, floor toshell weld, and sumps located in the bottom. The stress canlead to early failure of the bottom when the tank is placed backin service and under load from the stored product or thecolumns and legs of floating pans or ro
