ISO 28300:2008

Petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries - Venting of atmospheric and low-pressure storage tanks

ISO 28300:2008 covers the normal and emergency vapour venting requirements for aboveground liquid petroleum or petroleum products storage tanks and aboveground and underground refrigerated storage tanks designed as atmospheric storage tanks or low-pressure storage tanks. Discussed in ISO 28300:2008 are the causes of overpressure and vacuum; determination of venting requirements; means of venting; selection, and installation of venting devices; and testing and marking of relief devices.

ISO 28300:2008 is intended for tanks containing petroleum and petroleum products but it can also be applied to tanks containing other liquids; however, it is necessary to use sound engineering analysis and judgment whenever ISO 28300:2008 is applied to other liquids.

ISO 28300:2008 does not apply to external floating-roof tanks.
