We Help Solve Industrial Challenges
Equity takes a multi-disciplinary approach to solving your typical industry challenges. See below for how we can help solve three of the top challenges our clients experience.
Eliminate Knowledge Gaps
The energy industry is changing. Subject matter experts (SMEs) are retiring and fewer engineers are stepping in to fill those roles. The energy industry is quickly losing SME knowledge and industry best practices.
The Equity Engineering Practices (EEPs) solve this knowledge gap. The EEPs license corporate engineering standards that support safer facilities, using knowledge, results, and experience. Choose the industry’s most comprehensive and customizable corporate standards.
Minimize Unplanned Maintenance or Shutdown
Unexpected maintenance or equipment shutdowns can be expensive. You must get the equipment operating quickly to minimize production and revenue losses.
As a specialized central engineering team, Equity Engineering provides P.E./P.Eng stamped deliverables to resolve any unplanned maintenance or shutdown activity. Our practical and proactive recommendations will help you to minimize damage, prevent future failures, increase operating efficiencies, control inspection costs, and maximize reliability.
Achieve Effective Inspections
Many plants waste valuable resources on broad, inefficient inspection programs that fail to address critical risks. Or struggle to know how to design an effective inspection and asset management strategy.
CorrSolutions will help make your job easier. We combine artificial intelligence (AI) with your data to develop a new program or improve an existing program that will streamline inspection and maintenance activities at your plant. We deliver turn-key inspection and maintenance plans.

Two-Phase Flow Piping Vibration
Two-phase flow creates complex dynamic forces that can lead to catastrophic fatigue failure, yet traditional restraints often clash with high-temperature thermal expansion needs. This article explores how to diagnose flow regimes and use advanced metrics like kurtosis to design effective, thermally safe remediation strategies.
A Detailed Approach to Slug Flow and its Consequences
Two-phase flow is a common challenge in chemical process equipment that can lead to costly malfunctions, high pressure drops, and damaging mechanical vibrations. This article explores how to use mechanistic modeling and liquid holdup analysis to identify unstable flow regimes like slug flow before they cause fatigue failure or other risks to integrity. Learn how strategic piping configurations and dynamic hydraulic analysis can ensure process stability and protect your facility.
Introduction to Piping Systems: Design & Integrity
Discover the fundamentals of piping system design and integrity in this introductory article for early-career engineers. Learn why piping matters, how reliable systems are built, and common pitfalls to avoid.
