33、 measure equivalents are in parentheses.4. Summary of Guide4.1 This guide establishes a process and provides guidance about practices and procedures that are called for in API 650 andAPI 653, or available as optional selections and which will lead to a better understanding about the hydraulic integr
34、ity of anASTsbottom. The information contained in the guide is set out in three formats: a flowchart of the procedures and the appropriate pointfor employment in order to gather the most useful information; a table of the procedures briefly describing what and how theyshould be used in order to gath
35、er the most useful information; and an expanded listing of the procedures to provide the guide userwith procedure background and expected results in order to determine the type and validity of the information gathered.5. Significance and Use5.1 Inspection, repair, and construction of ASTs in petrole
36、um service should follow at a minimum the requirements of API 650and API 653. These standards describe methods for testing the weld quality and structural and hydraulic integrity of new orrepaired ASTs. With increasing emphasis on protecting the environment and with environmental issues related to t
37、he storing ofpetroleum materials in ASTs, owners and operators of such tanks may want or need a guide devoted to existing and enhancedmethods for evaluating the hydraulic integrity of new or repaired tank bottoms.5.2 The consequences of a tank bottom failure include the economic loss of product, cos
38、t of repair or replacing the tank bottom,and exposure to the cost of environmental remediation and potential damage or harm to adjacent lands that may give rise to adversepublic relations or regulatory action. In addition, releases of petroleum products introduce potential fire or explosive conditio
39、ns.5.3 Owners and operators ofASTs or their agents can use this guide to help choose methods of evaluating the hydraulic integrityof their repaired or new tank bottoms. Selection of the methods should be based on regulatory and economic criteria that includeoperational and cost/benefit consideration

This guide does not address suitability for use
41、or imply useful life of an AST bottom.E2256 1335.6 This guide is intended to be used in conjunction with and as a supplement to standards provided for hydraulic integrity inAPI 650 and API 653.5.7 Procedures or methods included here may be supported by a previously completed and documented performan
42、ceevaluation(s) that may lend itself as valuable results validation.6. Procedures6.1 This section provides information on established practices described in API 650 and API 653. This section providesinformation on other practices listed in this guide as optional during a hydrostatic test, and which
43、may be used to assess thehydraulic integrity of the tank bottom. Also identified in this section are developing technologies that may be used in conjunctionwith a hydro-test, and may produce supplemental information about the hydraulic integrity of the completed tank bottomconstruction. Some of the
44、procedures identified here are recognized to be voluntary when used for attaining an enhancedconfidence in the hydraulic integrity for a repaired or newly constructed tank bottom. For those owners and operators that alreadyhave procedures for determining the suitability of the tank bottom, this guid
45、e may serve as a reference when policy warrants achange in their methods.6.2 Table 1 identifies tests and procedures, and notes when application of those tests or procedures will provide the most usefulinformation for assessing the hydraulic integrity of tank bottom.6.3 Table 1 supplements the flow
46、chart by listing the accepted tests and procedures from API 650 and API 653, as a readilyavailable reference, and also the developing technologies. These API procedures, although established chiefly to assess tankstructural soundness, are also useful for determining the hydraulic soundness of tank b
47、ottom construction when it has been repairedor newly constructed. Information relating to the developing technologies may be employed by an owner and operator in order toobtain hydraulic integrity and other supplementary information during a hydrostatic test.6.4 When using information provided in th
48、is section, considerations for schedule, operational, economic, and environmentalcharacterizations should be reviewed. An owner and operator or the owners and operators representative should be familiar withconditions under which the tests and procedures can be used and in the case of the developing
49、 technologies, API 334 should beconsulted.7. Evaluation Methods7.1 Procedures Prior to Filling and After Filling the Tank:7.1.1 The owner and operator of a tank, included by definition in this guide, will find that there are numerous proceduresassociated with the determination of the hydraulic integrity of a tank bottom. Of this total number of procedures there can be atleast nine that are conducted prior to filling the tank and can be at least another four procedures that are applied with the tank eitherpartially or complete
