The MAOP is typically a percentage below the MAWP (maximum allowable working pressure) which is the maximum pressure based on the design codes that the weakest component of a pressure vessel can handle.
MAWP being the maximum pressure based on the design codes that the weakest component of a pressure vessel can handle. The MAOP is less than the MAWP (maximum allowable working pressure).
