This standard presents a procedure for the evaluation of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) pipe and tubulars for use in oilfield service. FRP pipe systems include the pipe or tube body, connections, fittings, and adhesive and elastomeric seals. This standard is intended only to evaluate the pipe or tube body; other components of FRP systems are outside the scope of this standard. This standard includes procedures for exposing the FRP pipe or tube to simulated oilfield environments and the determination of the comparative
apparent tensile strength. Pipes or tubes of different wall thickness may respond differently due to differences in the concentration gradients established through-wall produced by permeation of corrosive or reactive species in the environment. The purpose of this standard is to allow for the comparison of test data among test laboratories and provide a recognized test method to evaluate the compatibility of FRP pipe and tubulars for various oilfield applications.
This standard recommends the reagents to be used, describes the test specimens and test equipment to be used, and gives the test procedures to be followed. This standard describes seven environment categories: Sour Water Environments, Sweet Water Environments, HCl Environments, Mud Acid Environments, and Organic Acid Environments.
