this has to be applied.

In the GAD (schematic) we find corrosion allowance for wetted

floating roof has been specified as 5 mm which we feel may be a
typographical error. As such please clarify the same.

DRAWING NO. PJ-ENGG-02,

Anexure-3

In the GAD (schematic) against the layout of shell girth we find

there are 6 shell girths @ 2500 mm which makes a height of 15
m for the tank. However the tank height has been stated as 13.6
m(upto top of shell plate). Please clarify regarding the height of
the tank.

In the GAD (schematic) design liquid height has been specified as

12.75 m whereas the test pressure has been specified as full of
water + ATM. Moreover as per Equipment Data Sheet
(Mechanical) note no. 5.13 the maximum operating liquid level
has been stated as 13.5/14 m while the HLL is mentioned as 12
m in the GAD. For all the 7 tanks against note no. 5.11 it is
specified hydro test condition= Full of water + ATM pressure.
Please note that as this is a floating roof tank of height of 13.61
m, the above stated maximum operating liquid level of 13.5/14 m
is not possible.
So, there is confusion and contradiction in the above
data. As such please clarify regarding the followings:
i)

Maximum design liquid level.

ii)

Maximum hydro static liquid level during hydro test as

well as design
Maximum operating liquid level.

iii)
