Fitness-For-Service (FFS) Assessment Service
 

 

  

Fitness-For-Service (FFS) assessments are quantitative engineering evaluations that are performed to demonstrate the structural integrity of an in-service component with a flaw or damage. In other words, FFS enables the owner/user to

  
   
  • Judge the possibility for continued use
  • Decide on an inspection, repair and replacement intervals
  
      JGC provides FFS assessment services in accordance with standards as represented by API 579-1/ASME FFS-1 2007.JGC is particularly experienced in detailed structural analysis.  
         
      Benefits of FFS  
     
  • Reduction of LCC (Life-Cycle Cost) through life extension, reduction of repair costs
  • Minimization of turnaround duration through reduction of repair time
  • Optimization of inspection schemes through more accurate assessments
    (e.g., corrosion propagation)
  
         
      Experience  
     
  • Pressure vessels and piping with local thin areas
  • Pressure vessels and piping with crack-like flaws
  • Shell distortion
  • Creep damage
  • etc.
