Information is good. Thank you. But we need specific formulas which consider the loss of oil in storage or standards.
I think u can see following publication from API:
* MPMS Chapter 19.1
Evaporative Loss From Fixed-roof Tanks
(previously Publication 2518)
* MPMS Chapter 19.1A
Evaporation Loss From Low-pressure Tanks
(previously Bulletin 2516)
* MPMS Chapter 19.2
Evaporative Loss From Floating-roof Tanks
(previously Publications 2517 and 2519)
Usually we use formula and factor from API-MPMS, however, EPA of US have different factor on deck leakage and deck openings, but latest edition of the API-MPMS had revised it to conform with EPA values.
The calculation spreadsheet in format of excl, you can download from EPA web site. It's free.
