Baker Hughes (NYSE: BKR) last week unveiled a new composite flexible pipe for onshore pipelines.
“This pipe is the result of our strategic investments for growth in innovative non-metallic materials,” Hatem Haidar, global vice president of flexible pipe systems – onshore at Baker Hughes, remarked in a written statement emailed to Rigzone.
According to the company, the flexible, lightweight reinforced thermoplastic pipe (RTP) addresses corrosion and cost of ownership challenges associated with conventional steel pipe for the energy, oil and gas, and industrial sectors. The firm argues the pipe’s “proven, spoolable design” makes it easier, faster, and more cost-effective to transport and install than steel pipe. Moreover, it claims the RTP’s installed costs are 20-plus percent lower than those of steel, with installation requiring fewer onsite support facilities and heavy vehicles and taking up less width on a pipeline right-of-way.
