If you mean how long the Titanic could go on a voyage to sea... The ship was limited by its coal carrying capacity of between 6611 and 7703 tons of coal. The average consumption of her engines was 825 tons per day, which means the Titanic could only go to sea for 9 days. But the ship was still on the water, and barring any mechanical problems or the need to update the engine room, Titanic could be on water for years.

There really wasn't an estimated service life for the Titanic; it would have been decommissioned when White Star Lines could afford a newer model. But judging from the life of Titanic's sister ship, the RMS Olympic, which was built in 1911, the ship would have been decommissioned and removed from service after about 23-24 years. The Olympic was taken out of service in 1935, partly because of lack of passenger traffic, partly because the ship was obsolete, and partly because White Star had merged with Cunard Lines and needed funding to build the Queen Mary.
