Vertical Steel Tank Vol.50000 cbm (AST-50000)

  • Loading capacity: 50000m³
  • Diameter: 60,7m
  • Height: 18m
  • Net weight ≈ 995t

A steel Above-ground storage tank of 50000 cubic meters (AST-50000) is designed to store various liquid products, including hazardous ones.

We offer you to fabricate the metal structures of the AST-50000 tank in our modern specialized workshop, deliver them to your construction site, assemble them and commission the tank.

For the proper storage of your product in the tank, we will select the optimal internal anti-corrosion coating.

On this page AST-50000 of our standard design is proposed. For each customer, the design of the tank is being finalized or a completely individual design is being made.

If this tank interests you, you can download, fill out and send us a Data sheet. Then we can do all the calculations and prepare for you a detailed commercial offer.

Vertical Above-ground Storage Tank AST-50000Vertical Above-ground Storage Tank AST-50000 drawing

The above-ground storage steel tank with a loading capacity 50000 m³ can be designed, fabricated and constructed using the plate-by-plate method, traditional for Europe and US. At the same time, our factory is equipped with a special coiling machine, so we can fabricate tanks using the coiling method, which is widely used in Russia and the CIS countries.

Basic construction elements of a vertical 50000 m³ steel tank

AST-50000 Bottom

  • Type: flat steel bottom with annular plates.
  • Thickness: 6/16 mm.
  • Delivery from the workshop: plate-by-plate.
  • Net weight: 154 223 kg.

AST-50000 Shell

  • Type:closed cylinder.
  • Consists of 12 horizontal belts.
  • Thickness: 24-10 mm.
  • Delivery from the workshop: plate-by-plate.
  • Net weight: 431 931 kg

AST-50000 Roof

In tanks with a volume of 50,000 m³ and more, as a rule, an external floating roof is used.

In the picture you can see the fixed roof. It is a sphere with a radial-ring frame system. The radius of the sphere is projected within 0.8 - 1.5 diameters of the tank itself.

The roof of the AST-50000 consists of a central shield, rolled radial beams, ring frame elements, a stiffening ring around the perimeter of the shell and decking plates.
