 Methodology

Tank Fabrication and Installation of Fuel Storage Tank

Shell Plates Fabrication

• Lay the plate within the open area for marking and cutting as per the drawing
• Perform the cutting operation after proper inspection
• All the cutting operations are administered by gas cutting
• Temporary tack weld to avoid uneven movement
• Cutting the plates to their desired length and then
• Plates must be placed on the machine to be rolled
• Repeatedly bend the plates achieve to the desired arc
• End-to-end of the plates must be tacked before removing the plates from the
machine
• Then weld all joints in a continuous welding
• Grind the cut edges smoothly to get rid of burrs and slags
End Plates Fabrication
• Lay the plate within an open area for marking
• The bottom plates are laid out and tacked
• They shall be joined by welding the joints in a sequence that the manufacturer has
found to result in the least distortion from shrinkage and thus to provide as nearly as
possible a plane surface
• Marked plates shall be cut using gas cutting
• Lay the channel bar to the plates in preparation for cutting
• Channel bars are fitted to provide support to the end plate
• Mark all channel bars will be cut to their desired length before cutting
• Temporary tack welds (chain pattern) on all channel bars to fit the end plates
• Grind the cut edges and slags smoothly
Fittings Fabrication
• All fittings shall be cut to their desired length
• Fittings, Manhole, and other accessories shall be prepared before delivering to the
site
• Fabricate the doubler plate to prevent the tank from damage upon installation of the
fittings
Installation
• Shell plates, end plates, and fitting must be delivered on-site
• The installation will be performed on-site
• Shell plate to end plate
- Temporary install pad eye to the center of the end plate to prepare for lifting
- Shell plate (rolled plate) must be horizontally placed to the ground before
fitting up to the end plate
- Lifting shall be performed by using a Chain block attached to an A-Frame
- Install chip metal to the shell plate before fitting the end plate to the shell
plate to provide a support
 - Then perform continuous welding around the end plates fitting to the shell
plate
• Installation of joint plates (end plate attached to a shell) and the rest of the shell to
the tank pad
- Pad eye plate shall be attached to every rolled plate/joint plate for the lifting
process
- Lifting shall be performed using a chain block attached to A-frame
- After lifting slowly place it on the tank pad, A-Frame must have a roller to
perform this process
- Place neoprene rubber pad before laying down the plates
• Care shall be taken while fit-up
Joint Plates (Shell to Shell)
• Plates must be properly aligned with each other before tacked
• The rest of the shell plate must be performing the same process
• Plates must be Tacked after fitting up
• Before full welding, it must be properly checked to ensure that the plate is aligned
and properly placed on the tank pad
• All welding slags and temporary pad eyes that have been tacked must be removed by
grinding and cup brushing in preparation for painting
• Installation of fitting must be laid before cutting the plate as per the drawing
• The doubler plate will be welded to all fittings and manhole to prevent the plate from
damage
Welding Process
• Tack weld for fitting up
• Full welding on joints
- Full penetration welding for the first layer
- Rooting continuous welding for the second layer
- Capping for the third layer
Leak Test
• The Tank will be filled with air up to 5 Psig pressure and left for 2 hours. Soap was
applied on joints and the welded portion

Painting
• The whole tank shall be painted, 1 coat primer and 2 coats brown paint
• The tank must be cleaned in and out before painting
