RE: Information About flexiable connectors

Satish
The problem is not the piping but rather the AST. The settlement of the tank is more serious than the routing of the piping. Fix the settlement (using API 653 Tank Inspection Code), then maybe u dont have to modify the piping..Currenlty we're doing bottom plate replacement, shell repair and correction of settlement in about 4 process tanks - the whole works such NDE, geotechnical survey, CUI, CP upgrade, fitness-for-purpose assessment, etc.

My recommendation is check first the mech'l entigrity (suitability for service) of the AST then focus on the piping.
