As extreme depths test the limits of steel risers, bonded composite pipe aims to provide an alternative. But the technology’s proponents, including the two manufacturers profiled within, must overcome ...

Over the years SBM has continually pushed the boundaries for riser pipe systems. In the early days that meant rigid steel pipe, then, as water depths moved beyond 150 metres, a transition to flexible ...

The pipeline-riser system is a critical component of offshore oil and gas production, facilitating the transport of multiphase mixtures from reservoir to processing facilities. Within these systems, ...

On May 10 Magma Global (Portsmouth, U.K.), the manufacturer of the PEEK and carbon fiber composite m-pipe, announced the delivery of what it says is the world’s first high-pressure composite riser ...

Offshore platforms must ensure long-term safety, stability, and operational efficiency under extreme conditions including hurricanes, waves, strong currents, and corrosion. Platform planning must ...

Similar to pipelines or flowlines, risers transport produced hydrocarbons, as well as production materials, such as injection fluids, control fluids and gas lift. Usually insulated to withstand ...

A joint industry project run by DNV GL has replicated stresses measured in an umbilical subjected to tension and bending in full-scale tests, further validating the accuracy of the analysis software ...

ABS awarded China Merchants Industry (CMI) Approval in Principle (AIP) for its self-developed Deep-sea Mining Riser and Lift System.The AIP follows ABS awarding AIP for CMI’s deep-sea mining system ...
