    Uploaded by

    Gusfi Carsurin
    This document summarizes the venting requirements for an oil storage tank with a nominal capacity of 45.42 cubic meters. It details the normal and emergency venting requirements based on API 2000 standards. The normal venting requirement is 992 SCFH for inbreathing and 1534 SCFH for outbreathing. In the case of an external fire, the emergency venting requirement is over 20,000 cubic meters per hour. Pipe sizing calculations show an 8-inch vent can accommodate the emergency venting rate.
