Abstract

The strength of RTP non-metallic pipes is provided by the reinforcement layer structure, which comes into contact with the medium inside the pipe and provides corrosion resistance as the lining material. In order to overcome the weakness of high gas permeability of traditional plastic lining materials, with the continuous progress of polymer material technology, the design of sulfur resistant non-metallic pipes using new thermoplastic materials as RTP pipe lining materials is becoming a current research focus. RTP non-metallic pipes are lightweight, with good self-corrosion resistance and low internal friction coefficient. In terms of oil and gas gathering and transportation pipelines, they have the characteristics of easy installation, low construction cost, low safety risk, low environmental impact, and low investment throughout the entire life cycle. From the perspective of the entire life cycle, they can save more than 25% of costs. At present, the application scenario of non-metallic pipes is mainly small diameter oil field gathering and transportation pipes. Research has shown that through technological breakthroughs, the diameter of RTP non-metallic pipelines can reach 600mm, and the maximum pressure bearing capacity can reach 32MPa. Therefore, if based on standards and legal compliance, it has certain application prospects in oil and gas pipelines, and can be used for long-distance high-pressure small and medium-sized pipelines for crude oil and finished oil, as well as high-pressure pipelines for natural gas long-distance branch lines, medium and high-pressure pipelines connected to urban pipelines. In terms of hydrogen transmission pipelines, RTP pipes have unparalleled advantages over metal pipes. Currently, pure hydrogen explosion tests have been conducted on non-metallic pipes, and the tests show that the technical performance indicators of the pipes can meet the design requirements. But from the perspective of standards and legal compliance, just like the application of oil and gas pipelines, The RTP tube still needs further development and improvement.
