| Title: | High Performance Polymers for Oil and Gas 2013 |
|---|---|
| Description: | The industry is moving to greater water depths to prolong the productivity of mature fields, because of this, the significance of weight saving has become increasingly important. The oil and gas sector is finding significant use for lightweight, high strength thermoplastics and thermoset composite materials to replace their heavy metal counterparts in rig construction and onboard devices. Is your company fully prepared for 2014 and beyond?Where elastomers may have served in the past, thermoplastics will be required in the future; where thermoplastics may not meet all demanding conditions, application specific composites may be called for. The future of materials science and technology providers is a bright yet demanding one as the rate of demand for new materials grows and perhaps exceeds to pace at which new solutions can be developed.Tailored to the specific needs of the oil and gas industry, these proceedings cover all the presentations from this conference which featured a broad range of highly topical papers, addressing innovative polymeric materials and their application in extreme subsea environments. |
