Global StandardsThe minimum thickness without corrosion allowance for each element of a pressure vessel based on the appropriate design code calculations and code allowable stress that consider pressure, mechanical, and structural loadings. Alternately, required thickness can be reassessed and revised using FFS analysis in accordance with API 579-1/ASME FFS-1.

Global StandardsA change in either the design temperature rating, the MDMT or the MAWP rating of a vessel. The design temperature and MAWP of a vessel may be increased or decreased because of a rerating. Derating below original design conditions is a permissible way to provide for additional corrosion allowance.
