Fiber-reinforced polymer composites have found extensive applications in the oil and gas industry as well as fuel-retail segment for the last three decades in areas such as oil/fuel storage, pipes, pressure vessels and equipment’s. The cost advantages of composite products are much greater when they replace expensive conventional metals such as copper-nickel alloys, stainless steel, titanium, MS, etc. used in offshore platforms for various applications. Their resistance to corrosion & chemicals helps in improving reliability and safety & also leads to lower life cycle costs.
