Spherical tank legs(also called spherical tank lugs) are the main parts of spherical tank, spherical tank is a very common gas storage facility in large scale petroleum refining companies. Generally speaking, spherical gas storage tank belongs to pressure vessel, its manufacture standard should be carried out as related standard requirements. A complete spherical gas storage tank mainly contains three parts: tank body itself, spherical tank legs and accessories.The tank body itself is the main bear pressure parts among these, it is the core part. Other two parts are the main assist facility. Spherical tank legs are mainly used for tank body support and stability among the accessory. There will have a very high quality requirement for spherical tank legs, due to its large scale gas storage capacity.
On October 03, 2020, our company received an inquiry letter from Kuwait National Petroleum Corporation. The main content of the inquiry letter is whether or not our company can provide the spherical tank legs, which are the support part of the entire spherical tank.
