Corrosion Rate Determination


Reference: API 510, 10th edition, 7.1.1
The long-term (LT) corrosion rate shall be calculated from the following formula:

Corrosion rate (LT) =

tinitial - tactual
time between tinitial and tactual (years)

The short-term (ST) corrosion rate shall be calculated from the following formula:

Corrosion rate (ST) =

tprevious - tactual
time between tprevious and tactual (years)

Remaining Life Calculation


Reference: API 510, 10th edition 7.2.1
The remaining life of the vessel (in years) shall be calculated from the following formula:

Remaining life =

tactual - trequired
corrosion rate (ST)

The period between internal or on-stream inspections and thickness measurement inspections shall not exceed one-half the remainin
vessel or 10 years, whichever is less (API 510, 10th edition, 6.5.1.1).
Each aboveground vessel shall be given a visual external inspection at an interval that does not exceed the the lesser of five years or
internal/on-stream inspection (API 510, 10th edition, 6.4.1).
