Thanks big inch 4 ur valuable input. Unfortunatelly we are also the test contractor here. It is my client that asked to install this vent n drain. They have their own reason. One year ago one of their flexible joint at one of their service line size 3 inch that connect to 8 inch main inlet have...
The purpose are for hydrostatic test and used during operation, cause i thnk when a lines or tanks cools the pressure drop and can cause syphoning or prevent drain beside that when the pressure rise in storage tank (in my case) due to an increase in temperature, it is necessary to release the...
Thanks 4 your help Big inch, but i mean by vent pipes here are pipe that Mounted on Main piping or pipeline that use for throw the air out (vent) or use to drain the fluid (drain). Usually liquid pipeline need vent at the higher point of pipe, and drain at the lower point of pipe. My question is...
Hello everyone, is there any rule of thumbs about the clearance of one vent pipe or drain pipe to another in liquid pipeline system? How far we must put one vent pipe or drain to another one?
Hello Everyone....
Can Someone Explain about the difference of Y-Strainer,Bucket(T)Strainer and Basket Strainer? And Which of this that suitable for Pump Piping especially for piping that connect to Centrifugal Pump or Reciprocating Pump with the Fluid being Pumped is HSD(High Speed Diesel)...
I have a pipeline system running from berth to tank and pipeline from tank to pump centrifugal (See the attachment). my question are why the inlet piping at tank need a PRV? and why the outlet doesn't need it? And why in the centrifugal pump we must install PRV too from discharge to suction like...
Thank you to all valuables input. I'm here talk about the height of tank nozzle from the tank bottom at the tank shell. I want to put the nozzle higher than 200 mm that list at table 5-6a API 650 11th edition addendum 1. So with this i can routing the line from this tank Nozzle to our pump...
So from your comment i can say that there are no standards rules for minimum height of center line Nozzle tank from the bottom of tank or top of tank foundation. Ok thank you very much.
This tank are for diesel and fuel oil storage and distribution. The tank are design according To API 650. I have read in API 650 that nozzle height from bottom of tank for 6 inch nozzle is 275 mm, but i also had seen in some project with same tanks and same size of nozzle they put 339 mm from...
Dear Mr n Mrs,
I want to ask, is there any Code or Standards that specified about Minimum Height from Bottom Tank to Nozzle Center Line? Where can i find it? In my case the Nozzle is for Pipe 6 Inch, what is the minimum Height from Bottom Tank to Nozzle center Line?
Thank you Very Much

The condition is like this:
We have Two tank with capacity of High speed diesel (HSD) 5000 KL, diameter 23.275 m and height 12.278 m. Elevation Grade/Ground around Tank is EL+ 0.7 m, and foundation tank is at EL +1.550 m, we planning to put CenterLine of Outlet Nozzle tank 339 m high from the...
We have a pump foundation that to short in heigt (it is 200 mm height) and it cause a piping vibration and other problem like exessive nozzle loads. How do we have to handle a situation where poor of pump foundation height cause a piping vibration problem? Do we have to add an adjustable...
Thanks for valuable input. I know that Flexible Joint is the last choise when designing Piping/pipeline system, we can use the right support at the right location to absorb thermal expansion or settlement. So why i use flexible joint here?? it is a request from our client, where i have explain...
Heloo...
I am in the middle of designing piping system for Oil Distribution and Pipeline System. We are using Flexible joint/Flexible tube at line that connect to Tank to avoid settlement and other movement cause by expansion or contraction, and also at line at Suction pump and dicharge line we...
