Monthly Webinars

Equity hosts free monthly webinars on several asset integrity topics, including fitness-for-service (FFS), damage mechanisms, mechanical integrity, pressure relief, and risk-based inspection (RBI) strategies. Each session offers practical recommendations from Equity SMEs with refinery and chemical plant experience. 

This Month’s Webinar

  • Inspecting for Piping Vibration – Vibration Testing of Small-Bore Piping is a Fixable Gap in Mechanical Integrity Programs

    September 17, 2026 | 11:00am EST

    Mechanical integrity (MI) programs are maturing. Corrosion monitoring locations have been established and are now being optimized, and risk-based inspection (RBI) planning is more common. Yet piping continues to fail in service from a damage mechanism that most MI programs avoid or ignore: vibration fatigue. Piping vibration integrity programs are easier to adopt now that acceptance criteria will be codified in API 579-1/ASME FFS-1 Part 15.  This webinar covers how to perform piping vibration inspection and assessment and prioritize mitigation actions with a risk-based approach to supplement the assessment outcomes. Examples will be shared on how Part 15 Level 1 and 2 Fitness-for-Service evaluations of piping vibration can be executed with field engineers and evaluated at scale to supplement your MI programs.
