Abstract
Abstract The most important factors governing corrosion rates in oil storage tanks are solubility of oxygen in the oil, rate of working, type of roof used, vapor pressure of the oil, and location of the tank (climatic conditions.) Data are given to show the relationship between stocks contained in tanks versus corrosion rate, and size and location of tanks versus corrosion rate. A corrosion mechanism is considered briefly. Corrosion control measures discussed include gas blanketing, inhibitors, breathing systems and protective coatings. Other topics considered include corrosion below the liquid level, vapor space effects, temperature effects and plate thickness corrosion allowance. 4.4.6
