... Multi-layered flexible pipes have long been important components of PETROBRAS’ subsea production systems. Approximately 14,700 km of these pipes are in service throughout PETROBRAS’ assets in 2024, and more is planned to be laid down in the coming years. Flexible pipe design aims at complying...

... of such an extensive roll out is the safety of the infrastructure installed. Within CO 2 pipelines a key additional risk is running ductile fractures or rapid crack propagation failures in pipelines which is exacerbated by the decompression behaviour of CO 2 . Spoolable composite pipes, including RTPs, could...

...) triple-point inherent geometry, (iii) material properties, and (iv) material thickness. Each of these challenges is ranked in Table 1 and discussed in detail in the following sections. Abstract The demand for corrosion-resistant subsea pipelines drives the use of mechanically lined pipes, valued...

... Abstract Strohm's thermoplastic composite pipe (TCP) Jumpers are a non-metallic, durable solution for the offshore industry. The "Jumper on Demand" (JoD) concept, enabled by the technology's ability to be shipped in long continuous lengths, is proven to reduce the carbon footprint of pipeline...

... Abstract Flexible pipes are critical components in offshore oil and gas production that enable the safe transportation of hydrocarbons between subsea facilities and surface vessels or production platforms. Subsea pipes require periodic inspection to ensure their fitness for purpose, once...

... the integrity of well casings, among which only electromagnetic (EM) technologies can be used to inspect outer casings beyond the immediate pipe in which the tool is run. In this work, we used multi-frequency, multi-spacing EM logs to detect the presence of burst or collapse events and identify the anomaly type...

... feasibility assessment at early design stage plays an important role in selecting an optimum SWIR configuration. The main pipe of the SWIRs is generally made of reinforced rubber, steel, or high-density polyethylene (HDPE). The SWIRs are installed in a free hanging configuration at the keel or on the sides...

... Abstract Pipeline design for high pressure/high temperature applications (HPHT) requires the use of heavy walled pipe up to 2" thickness. This leads to enhanced pipe chemistry & complexity for girth weld fabrication, particularly when sour service requirements are specified. Subsea 7...

... Abstract Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) materials, including structural products and Glass Reinforced Epoxy (GRE) pipes, offer significant carbon footprint reduction when compared to traditional steel alternatives. This is because of the lower energy requirements needed for manufacturing...

... Abstract The work presents an unprecedented standardization effort within the flexible pipe industry, that allows flexible pipe manufactures to still use their best design for each case while allowing the projects the flexibility to select pipes from a list of already qualified and ready...

Abstract The paper provides a new integrity management strategy for flexible pipes using state-of-the-art inspection and monitoring methods to gather data and a novel methodology to deal with ageing pipes that may already present some degree of damage to the tensile armor wires. The new process...

Abstract This paper discusses the development of next-generation bulkheads for Pipe-in-Pipe, aiming to replace forged bulkheads with cheaper and safer mechanical stoppers. The process started with an innovative mechanical design based on wedges...

... Abstract The paper aims at presenting the extensive qualification approach adopted for the Hybrid Composite Flexible Pipe (HFP). The test results presented are mainly focused on the capacity of the PEEK-Carbon Fiber composite material and the pipe to resist to harsh environment, which combines...

...Introduction Abstract Flexible pipes tend to be complex structures, tailor-made, and require a significant amount of engineering in preparation for manufacturing and delivery. These features increase the cost and the time required between procurement and delivery, extending the project...
