Traditional carbon-steel armour wires pose limitations (e.g. long spans, weight reduction, corrosion and fatigue) for flexible risers to operate in demanding and deeper water environments. In this context, an alternative to carbon-steel tensile armour wires is proposed recently by the authors (Gautam et al., 2016), comprising of hexagonally packed polymer composite rods with uni-directional fibres...
With the rising global demand for hydrocarbon fuels, there is a growing need for the oil and gas industry to operate in deeper offshore waters. In this context, the traditional metallic tensile armours in flexible risers pose certain limitations (e.g. weight, corrosion, fatigue damage) in demanding service environments. This paper presents a novel and proprietary hybrid composite wire as an alternative...
