Energy. Efficiently.
Advancing the future of the oil and gas industry with high performance thermoset and thermoplastic composites.
Advanced Composites in Oil & Gas Applications
In an industry where time truly is money, reduced downtime and improved cycle times are critical. Corrosion-resistant composite materials reduce interruptions and repair costs while rapid assembly methods, spoolable pipe, and lighter structures reduce infrastructure costs associated with pipeline component replacement. Lightweight materials also create a safer work environment, reducing chances of costly accidents.
High performance composites from Toray offer an innovative alternative to traditional metals and non-reinforced plastics typically used in the oil, gas, and energy markets.
Common energy applications include:
- Pressure vessels
- Frac plugs
- Low dielectric enclosures
- Gaskets
- Tubular products
- Piping and pipe overwrapping
Material Benefits
Learn about the benefits advanced composites bring to the energy market.
Corrosion Resistant
Advanced composites are inherently resistant to corrosion and corrosive environments, making them ideal for metal replacement in pipe, umbilicals, compressed gas cylinders, and a variety of energy industry infrastructure.
Lightweight
Advanced composites are stronger than steel, but up to 40% lighter than aluminum. Lighter weight pipe and structure improves safety while reducing infrastructure costs.
Fire Retardant
Toray’s thermoplastic advanced composites are inherently fire retardant without the addition of secondary toxic fillers, making them a safer choice for oil and gas applications.
