Case Study – Vessel and Tank Rating Calculations for Midstream Tanks and Vessels
Situation: 85 tanks and pressure vessels lacked complete design and operating information.
Information: Becht was supplied the tabulated information and a large collection of original design documents (U1-A forms, drawings, etc.).
Action Taken: Becht verified or corrected each item’s MAWP, MAWT, MDMT, geometry, CA, etc. and added details and Code Calcs for: t(min) for shell & heads, weld E, nozzle reinforcement, etc.
Results: This deep dive into the client’s equipment created a clear dashboard for the tanks and vessels that the client can use for both evaluating future operation and spotting deficiencies they need to reconcile.

“This project went off wonderfully. We were under pressure to evaluate our equipment and Becht’s team accomplished our goals much faster than expected and with great clarity for our engineers.”
