The objective of this technical committee report is to
provide an overview of thermoplastic liners used in oilfield
pipelines, and to reflect current practices. This report is
intended to assist those who are considering the use of
liners, but have only limited access to resources with
knowledge of the terminology, techniques, and
applications of liners in the oilfield. This report does not
endorse any specific system or indicate that any of the
liner systems described is suitable for particular
applications. It is not the intent of this report to restrict the
use of any liner material but to describe materials and
systems currently in use. Specific material properties are
beyond the scope of this technical report, as are specific
liner design methodologies. Suppliers of the materials
can normally provide the specific mechanical and
chemical information needed by a potential user, and
installers normally provide design services based on
regional experience and normal industry-accepted
practices. Evaluation by the potential user of a particular
application in conjunction with the system manufacturer is
vital to ensuring proper material and liner system
selection. In this report, the words plastic and polymer
are used interchangeably.
