Abstract

Summary

The oil and gas industry has proceeded to utilize offshore fields in ultra-deep water depths, and the geothermal exploration is going to deeper reservoirs in harder rock. Thus, application of existing technologies in those environments impose technical and economic challenges, e.g. high offshore riser system weight, indicating the need for alternative, innovative products and solutions. In order to meet mentioned challenges of deep offshore and geothermal drilling applications, advanced composite materials have been evaluated for their use in in such environments. As an example a self-supporting composite riser system concept has been designed and analyzed for deep water applications, and a coiled tubing demonstrator unit has been setup in Bochum for the testing of such materials.
