COMPOSITE LINEPIPE<br />
It Pays to be Flexible<br />
Flexpipe Systems manufactures and distributes a flexible, composite<br />
pipeline solution for the energy sector. Our corrosion resistant, highpressure<br />
pipeline products help drive down installation costs while<br />
increasing productivity. With over 65 million feet (19 million meters)<br />
of Flexpipe Systems’ patented Linepipe technology and 90,000<br />
fittings successfully installed throughout North America, Latin<br />
America and Australia, our team of technical experts, engineers,<br />
and field personnel will find the right solution for your next pipeline<br />
project.<br />
Modernizing pipelines in the field<br />
All Flexpipe Systems products use the same principle: a<br />
thermoplastic liner, a helically wound reinforcement layer and an<br />
external thermoplastic jacket.<br />
Our composite linepipe solutions are used in a wide range of<br />
applications in which a corrosion resistant pipeline is beneficial,<br />
including:<br />
• Oil and gas gathering<br />
• Water transfer, disposal, and injection<br />
• CO 2 injection<br />
2001<br />
• Flexpipe Incorporated – began as an R&D initiative to<br />
design a composite pipeline system<br />
2003<br />
• First commercial sale in April 2003

• Reel-less (coiled) pipe packaging is introduced as an<br />
alternative to reels<br />
• First field trial of 6" FlexFlow larger diameter linepipe
Flexible Composite Linepipe Solutions<br />
Proven reliability<br />
• Over 65 million feet (19 million meters)<br />
of Flexpipe products have been installed<br />
• Extremely thorough pipe qualification<br />
exceeds the requirements of CSA, API,<br />
and ASTM standards<br />
• Engineering application review process<br />
ensures correct product selection for<br />
specific applications<br />
• Fitting and coupling installation is strictly<br />
controlled with custom equipment for<br />
high repeatability<br />
• Impact resistance greater than 10 times<br />
that of traditional thermoset composite pipe<br />
Unmatched corrosion protection<br />
• High density polyethylene liner eliminates<br />
corrosion<br />
• Mechanical fittings are available in carbon<br />
steel with high-phosphorus electroless<br />
nickel plating or in stainless steel<br />
• Minimizes high costs of corrosion<br />
inhibition programs<br />
Simplified installation<br />
• Rapid installation gets production on-line<br />
faster than traditional materials<br />
• Smaller crew size and ease of handling<br />
reduces installation costs by up to 30%<br />
• Environmental impact is reduced due to<br />
small right-of-ways and minimal ground<br />
disturbance<br />
• Flexpipe products are available spooled<br />
on reels or coiled in reel-less packaging<br />
format<br />
Services<br />
• Engineering application reviews to<br />
confirm product suitability<br />
• Train and certify contractors in joining<br />
procedures, handling, and deployment<br />
