Can spherical tanks be transported by water?
Thread Content
Hello everyone, I would like to ask whether spherical tanks can be transported by water For example, for LPG, propylene, and isopentane spherical tanks, are there any corresponding written standards?
Check for airtightness after the hydrotest. The spherical tank assembly unit will provide assistance with the relevant indicators.
It can be transported by water; the problem is how to cross the bridge.

Can it be transported by water? But many of them have not been done; only water flushing, airtightness testing, etc. have been carried out.
Does water transport refer to transportation on the water surface, or to water-based transportation after pipelines are in place? All types of water-based transportation are possible; as for surface transportation, I’m not familiar with it
It is quite difficult, as the bridge decks are generally low.
A comprehensive consideration is needed; this requires consultation with the pump manufacturer. Given the significant difference between the density of water and that of the material, it is up to the manufacturer to assess whether this could cause damage to the pump. Additionally, after water transport, the water in the system needs to be purged to dry it out. If a barrel pump is used, the pump chamber is located underground, and it is difficult to blow out the water from there. Be careful with everything.
To be completely honest, water transport is possible; however, the density of the medium used in the pump design is relatively low, at 0.57 (propylene). It is necessary to control the flow rate when pumping water to avoid overloading the pump. LPG, propylene displaced with water. All systems are filled with water; LPG gas is introduced into the gas phase, and replacement is completed after draining the water.
The question needs to be clarified – is it about transporting balls by water, or about the water-based transportation of balls?
