2H Offshore develops new composite pipe design

The aim of the Joint Industry Project (JIP) is to improve the understanding and use of composite materials in the offshore industry.

It began in October and will take a year to complete. 

“Our involvement in this JIP underlines our commitment to supporting the use of composite materials within the offshore industry,” said Tim Eyles, managing director, 2H. “Composite pipes have many advantages. Their good fatigue performance and reduced cross-sectional weight may help to overcome technical challenges in the industry, especially in deeper water and harsh environments. 2H has experience in using composite materials in risers and is committed to using emerging technologies to find the best technical solutions to meet the needs of our clients.”
