What is a static equipment engineer?

Static equipment engineers are professionals who specialize in the design, analysis, installation, and maintenance of non-moving equipment used in industries such as oil & gas, petrochemical, and power plants. This includes equipment like pressure vessels, heat exchangers, storage tanks, and reactors. They ensure that these components meet safety, regulatory, and performance standards. Static equipment engineers work closely with project teams to select appropriate materials and ensure equipment reliability and integrity throughout its lifecycle.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a static equipment engineer?

To thrive as a Static Equipment Engineer, you need a solid background in mechanical engineering, knowledge of industry codes (such as ASME or API), and experience with the design, selection, and maintenance of static equipment like pressure vessels and heat exchangers. Familiarity with engineering design software (e.g., AutoCAD, PV Elite), inspection tools, and relevant certifications such as API 510 or 653 are typically required. Strong problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and effective communication with multidisciplinary teams are essential soft skills. These competencies ensure the safety, reliability, and regulatory compliance of critical equipment in industrial operations.

What are the typical challenges faced by a static equipment engineer when coordinating with other engineering disciplines during large projects?

Static Equipment Engineers often collaborate closely with process, piping, and structural engineers to ensure equipment such as pressure vessels, heat exchangers, and storage tanks are properly integrated into plant designs. A common challenge is aligning specifications and timelines across disciplines, as changes in one area (like piping routes) can impact equipment layout or support requirements. Effective communication and early involvement in project planning help minimize costly rework and ensure safety and compliance standards are met. Embracing a proactive approach to cross-disciplinary coordination is key for project success.

What is the difference between Static Equipment Engineer vs Mechanical Engineer?

AspectStatic Equipment EngineerMechanical Engineer
Primary FocusDesign, maintenance, and integrity of static equipment like pressure vessels, heat exchangers, and piping systemsDesign, analysis, and manufacturing of mechanical components and systems, including machinery and moving parts
CertificationsTypically API, ASME certificationsProfessional Engineer (PE), mechanical engineering licenses
Work EnvironmentOil & gas, petrochemical, power plantsManufacturing, automotive, aerospace, energy sectors
Common UsageIndustry-specific roles focusing on static equipmentBroader engineering roles including dynamic systems

The Static Equipment Engineer specializes in static equipment within industrial plants, focusing on design, maintenance, and safety. Mechanical Engineers have a broader scope, working on various mechanical systems across multiple industries. While both roles require engineering credentials, their work environments and focus areas differ significantly.

Job description

Work Arrangement:ย Hybridย 

Department: Static & Rotating Equipment Engineering Area

Pembina Pipeline US is a dynamic energy transportation and midstream provider, serving customers for more than 70 years. Chances are, we do more than you think. We own pipelines that transport hydrocarbon liquids and natural gas products. We also own gathering and processing facilities and an oil and natural gas liquids infrastructure and logistics business. Our operations along the hydrocarbon value chain allow us to offer a full state of midstream and marketing services to our customers in the energy industry.ย 

We are an organization that cares not only about results, but how those results are achieved. Our organization is grounded in the values of Safe, Trustworthy, Respectful, Collaborative and Entrepreneurial. Pembina has a diverse and inclusive working environment that provides employees with a positive and engaging working experience where they are recognized and empowered. Learn more about ourย values and strategy.ย 

We value the safety of our communities, customers, contractors and employees, and believe that all incidents are preventable. Compliance with all policies, procedures and regulations is a requirement, and our Life Saving Rulesย are basic rules. Employees embed physical, psychological, and cyber safety into all work practices while taking personal accountability to maintain compliance, support audit readiness, proactively identify risks, and protect our people, assets, and data. Working for Pembina means working safely.ย 

Overview:

At Pembina, growth creates opportunity. The Static & Rotating Equipment Engineering team is growing and is actively hiring a Rotating Equipment Engineer/Specialist to join the Operations Engineering organization. In this highly specialized role the individual will provide technical expertise and strategic support for critical turbomachinery assets across our natural gas pipeline systems, including Gas Generators, Power Turbines, and Gas Compressors.

The ideal candidate brings hands-on experience with turbomachinery, preferably LM2500-series gas generators, along with a strong foundation in mechanical engineering. Whether you are already recognized as a subject matter expert or looking to build that expertise, this role offers the opportunity to work on complex assets, influence reliability strategies, and make a meaningful impact across a diverse operating footprint. While Calgary is the preferred location, the position may be based anywhere within the Operations Engineering area, including Alberta, Saskatchewan, North Dakota, Minnesota, Houston, Iowa, or Illinois.

The Static & Rotating Equipment Engineering team delivers specialized engineering expertise to maximize the reliability, integrity, performance, and lifecycle value of Pembina's critical mechanical assets.

The Operations Engineering Central team serves as Pembina's engineering center of excellence, providing technical leadership, governance, and strategic direction to optimize asset performance, strengthen reliability, and support safe and efficient operations across the business.

Responsibilities may include but not limited to:
  • Champion Pembina's Zero by Choice safety culture and Life Saving Rules by embedding physical, psychological, and cyber safety into all work practices while taking personal accountability to maintain compliance, support audit readiness, proactively identify risks, and protect our people, assets, and data;ย
