How STI SP001 differs from API 653 • API 650 includes equations for calculating the steel thickness needed for a particular tank. • API 653 allows for / requires more judgement by inspector
How STI SP001 differs from API 653 • Shop fabricated tanks – Tables that specify the steel thickness based on tank diameter and capacity. – Smaller capacities and smaller hydrostatic pressures – Capacity up to 50,000 gallons. – Manufactured in controlled shop environments
