I am currently evaluating offers for vessel mounted API 610 VS4 pumps for closed drain service. I have observed noticable differences in the MAWP values offered by vendors.Maximum discharge pressures including test tolerance is around 12 barg.

What should be the MAWP for the VS4 type pumps?

As per the manufacturer's advised value.
Your decision which unit to select is based on your overall evaluation with MAWP being only one of the factors.
