Maximum allowable operating pressure

ID: maximum-allowable-operating-pressure

Maximum Allowable Operating Pressure (MAOP) is a critical safety parameter in the design and operation of pressure vessels, pipelines, and similar systems. It is defined as the maximum pressure that the vessel or pipeline is allowed to operate under normal operating conditions. The MAOP is determined by various factors, including material properties, design specifications, regulatory requirements, and safety considerations.
