Course Outline
This module covers the main technical requirements and engineering practices needed to evaluate, inspect, repair, alter, and reconstruct aboveground storage tanks in accordance with API 653.
Participants will learn how to assess the fitness for service of tank roofs, shells, bottoms, and foundations; determine minimum thickness requirements; evaluate settlement according to Appendix B; conduct external, internal, and in-service inspections; perform hydrostatic tests, leak-tightness tests, and non-destructive examinations; and design repairs for tank walls, bottoms, roofs, and shell connections.
The course also addresses tank dismantling and reconstruction, dimensional tolerances, marking, recordkeeping, nameplates, and tank requalification after changes in pressure, temperature, or service conditions.
