PE Pipes in the Oil and Gas Industry [PE]

Adhyatmabhattar Mohana Murali

# 2012 Barcelona

The Oil and Gas Industry uses many kilometres of pipe work to transport fluids from the wellhead to storage and processing units. These conventional steel pipes suffer from corrosion and other related problems and have to be replaced regularly to avoid spillage, but now some operators are considering more cost effective solutions using PE pipes. Clearly using PE pipes in various situations such as lining carbon steel pipes will eliminate corrosion and thereby eliminate the release of hydrocarbons to the environment. This paper presents a number of examples where PE pipes have been used as stand-alone pressure pipes or as liners for high pressure steel pipes in the Middle East.

The paper covers the growth of the polyethylene pipe sector in the Middle East from the 90s to the present. The initial slow uptake was related to ignorance of the material properties from the end users through to designers and installers. Recently the Middle East has become a world leader in the use of ever larger...

2016 Berlin : Polyethylene pipes in hot climates - Two decades of technical challenges

Author(s) : Mohana Murali

Polyethylene pipes have been used for over half a century in Europe and North America and just over two decades in the Middle East. A recurring misgiving amongst first time users is the behavior of the pipes in the extreme climatic conditions such as the Arabian Gulf. High temperatures do exist but there are...

2014 Chicago : The Rapid Spread of Large Diameter PO Pipes in the Middle East and Asia

Author(s) : Mohamed Hageb, Roger Jepson, Mohana Murali

Throughout the financial crisis in the West, governments and businesses in the Middle East and Asia have continued to invest in industry confident that low labour costs or low feedstock and mineral costs would ensure that they remained competitive. Also many large water and wastewater projects have been continued,...

2012 Barcelona : Butt Fusion Welding of Large Diameter Spiral Wound PPHM Pipes

Author(s) : Cristian Hedesiu, Roger Jepson, Mohamed Hageb, Mohana Murali

It was found that welding high modulus polypropylene (PP-HM) material in accordance with the parameters of DVS 2207-11 did not produce welds which met the requirements of the Guide. The optimum welding conditions for butt fusion welding of large diameter pipes e.g. 2000 mm and 3000mm, made from PP-HM were investigated...
