This paper presents a study that confirms glass-reinforced-epoxy-lined tubing as a reliable, cost-effective solution for long-term water-injection service in moderate-salinity offshore environments.
This paper introduces in-pipe inspection technologies enabling high-resolution digital measurements of tubular internal diameter and wall thickness for critical downhole applications.
A circular economy emphasizes reducing, reusing, recycling, and removing parts of existing systems to optimize them with respect to resource utilization. The following papers demonstrate how these pillars of a circular economy are enabling operators all over the world.
-
The organization has published new procedures designed to provide the required safety level in transporting CO2 by pipelines and strengthen the development of carbon capture and storage projects. -
The honorees will be recognized later this year at the OTC Distinguished Achievement Awards Luncheon.
-
The paper outlines specific issues, mitigation steps, and lessons learned during the development phase of a corrosion-resistant alloy pipeline.
-
High-strength, sour-service-grade carbon steel has been developed with outer diameter up to 23 in. and wall thickness up to 2.5 in. using a robust manufacturing process.

Massive Russian Baltic Sea gas export line faces scrutiny, sanctions from the West.
-
Europe’s gas pipeline wars are in a muddle as the US throws its support to the EastMed project to supply Israeli gas to Italy, transiting Greece and Cyprus; while at the same time the US is sanctioning the Russian-German Nord Stream 2 pipeline, which is already 90% complete.
-
The project will create a foundation for further development of a thermoplastic composite pipe jumper technology for risers in permanent HP/HT subsea applications.
-
The Norwegian provider of pipeline safety and technical verification services announced its withdrawal after actions taken by US lawmakers this month.
-
A combination of computational-fluid-dynamics and finite-element modeling offers a potentially powerful tool for assessing and diagnosing multiphase-flow-induced vibration problems in hydrocarbon-production piping systems.
