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.

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.
