API standards advocate proven, sound engineering and operating practices and safe, interchangeable equipment and materials API standards include manuals, standards, specifications, recommended practices, guidelines and technical reports.
Why use a fitness for service assessment Determine if structural components, such as pressure vessels, tanks or piping are safe and fit for continued operation Assess how reliable your assets will be over a set period of time for example, until your next planned shutdown Make informed decisions on whether to run, repair, re-rate, alter or retire your equipment Assess the remaining life of your equipment to set future inspection intervals and assist with your budgeting for capital cost.
Reduce shutdown time and gain more effective remediation Gain expert recommendations on any necessary corrective action? Where is FFS Assessment applicable? When is FFS Assessment needed Asset lacks original design information or it may have exceeded its useful life. Assets manufactured before , equipment operate at relatively low temperature - exposed to self-refrigeration Decommissioned asset that may be used in a different service?
What happens to in-service equipment Time dependent degradation Upset operating condition Pressure, Temperature Fluid - Material Interaction? Justin Onisoru. Amr Amin ElSharkawy.

API was developed to provide technically sound FFS assessment procedures, so that the industrial users and regulators would have confidence to apply this technology to help manage aging equipment.
Currently, these inspection codes have empirical rules used for metal loss and pitting damage, do not permit crack-like flaws, and provide minimum guidance on other flaws and damage types e. In addition, these codes impose an inspection interval based on equipment condition with a maximum inspection interval cap. API allows the owner-user to be able to evaluate metal loss and pitting damage with technology-based rules that can be used to rerate components with damage if necessary.
Crack-like flaws in components may be acceptable pending an FFS assessment, and better guidance on assessment procedures for common types of damage mechanism.
