Vessel design SG of 1.5,
Vessel design SG of 1.5,
(OP)
All, we have a storage tank containing fluid of an SG of 0.7. We are installing a larger tank onto site. I'm told it works if we reduce the design margin on the codes from 1.5 to 1.2.
I'd like some candit coments from engineers on your perspetive of this change. We dont process any fluids on site with an SG of more than 1. All are 0.7.

The tank is designed for 1.5 because its a 50% safety factor over the hydrotest load!!!
