Are there any other regulatory requirements regarding the pressure operation control parameters for atmospheric pressure storage tanks?
Thread Content
SHT 3007-2014 Code for Design of Tank Areas in Petrochemical Storage and Transportation Systems, Section 3.5: Relevant descriptions state that the operating pressure control for atmospheric pressure tanks should be at least at atmospheric pressure. According to the relevant provisions of 5.2.5 in GBT 50759-2022, Technical Standards for Oil and Gas Recovery Facilities, the operating pressure of storage tanks with gas sealing should not be lower than 0.2 KPa. Are there any other regulatory requirements in the process management group?
The pressure operation control criteria for atmospheric storage tanks typically require it to be maintained at atmospheric pressure. In addition, there are some other regulatory requirements that need to be followed. According to the relevant provisions in 3.5 of the \"SHT 3007-2014 Code for Design of Tank Areas in Petrochemical Storage and Transportation Systems\", the operating pressure control for atmospheric pressure tanks is at least at atmospheric pressure. This means that during normal operation, the pressure inside the tank should be maintained below atmospheric pressure. This is to ensure the safe operation of the storage tank and prevent accidents caused by excessive pressure. In addition, the design, installation, and operation of atmospheric pressure storage tanks must also comply with **relevant laws, regulations, and standards, such as the \"Administrative Provisions on Safety Production Licenses for Petrochemical Enterprises\" and the \"Safety Technical Specifications for Pressure Vessels in Petrochemical Plants\". These specifications require, but are not limited to: the selection of material for storage tanks, structural design, quality control during construction, installation and maintenance of safety valves and pressure gauges, as well as regular inspections and maintenance. In summary, in addition to the control parameters for operation at atmospheric pressure, the design, construction, and operation of atmospheric-pressure storage tanks must also comply with relevant laws, regulations, and standards to ensure their safe operation. .
The tank is kept at a slight positive pressure to prevent a negative pressure area from forming when the pump operates, which could cause the tank at normal pressure to collapse.
