Dear Saul,We are also tank fabricator but we never do preheating.It is not the requirement as per API 650 if you have proper WPS with supporting PQR.We have welded 35mm A 516 GR 70 in our last project without preheating without anyproblem.regdsNilesh Parsekar,Sr QC Co-ordinator(Dip Mech,API 510,API 570,AWS-CWI,NDT LEVEL2)Belleli Energy SpaFUJAIRAH - UAE

Dear all
We are API 650 steel tanks with steel ASTM 516 gr70 and our client requests that preheat to 70°C - 100°C is this correct? The API 650 code section 7-1 that says that preheat at 10°C
thanks all
Cordial saludo
Kind regards
