Does any one have a checklit for AST API 650 tank inspection? I would aprecuate very much to get one please

API 650 is for new tanks. API 653 contains a very good checklist for existing tanks. Are you looking for new or existing tank checklists?

See Appendix T of API-650 for new tanks.

My edition: API STANDARD 650
TENTH EDITION, NOVEMBER 1998
Does not have the checklist, any sugestion?

You should invest in the 11th edition of API 650. It's the current standard for new construction of storage tanks.

also, i dont remember EVER seeing a new construction checklist in any edition of 650. I had to create my own checklist.

I would recommend you follow API-650, 11th edition, Appendix T. Its titled "NDE Requirements Summary".

It's a good guide to look over as you go. I used this appendix to create a checklist for myself.

Hope this helps.

That App. T isn't a complete inspection check list, but helps you run down the NDE requirements. I don't know that it includes tolerances or checking weld procedures and things like that.

Both, thanks
I got the NDE req. and we already built a checklist, what I want is to improve it, I will ask my boss to get the last edition
Happy weekend
