Strohm Unveils Carbon Fiber Pipes for CO2 Transfer in CCS Applications
(P&GJ) — Strohm, a leading thermoplastic composite pipe (TCP) company, has introduced a new product combining carbon fiber and advanced PVDF polymer. This development allows Strohm to offer jumpers and flowlines specifically designed for carbon capture and storage (CCS) applications.
This new product leverages polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), known for its high chemical resistance and temperature capabilities, to create a corrosion-free solution with a 30-year design life. The new PVDF-based TCP is suitable for injecting CO2 offshore in both depleted gas fields and aquifers, offering a smaller carbon footprint compared to steel.
Strohm's new product stands out for its ability to handle the high temperatures and pressures of ultra-deepwater hydrocarbon production, providing natural insulation. This innovation positions Strohm as a key player in the deepwater flowline and riser market within the offshore energy industry.
Strohm CEO Martin van Onna highlighted the significance of this achievement, noting it as a culmination of over 15 years of development and testing.
“One of our central pillars at Strohm is our drive to introduce disruptive technologies to the market, thereby doing our bit to help the transition move forward at pace -this is a clear-cut example of that ambition bearing fruit,” Martin van Onna, Strohm CEO, said. “There is a big future for this innovative solution, both in CCS and in conventional offshore energy, and we look forward to working with companies to help them realise the value that TCP can bring to their projects.”
