Pipe stress service
(OP)
How do you evaluate this type of service / business?
Do you think that companies are willing to cooperate with external engineer or does everyone have their own stress engineer and it is not good business?

RE: Pipe stress service
Most engineering consultants have the capability to do pipe stress analysis. At my firm we've had several jobs where a power plant or similar asked us to perform pipe stress analysis and provide recommendations/report of the findings.
We have reached out to specialty consultants for dynamic analysis or particularly complicated/sensitive systems, but it's not the norm for us. Down in Houston or the gulf area the market may be very different, I don't know.
