Description
LNR Pipe, made of high-performance engineering polymers, is designed for the internal lining of steel pipe by cold insertion, providing greater corrosion resistance and reducing internal wear on metal lines. Thanks to its low surface roughness, it offers superior flow characteristics, reducing head loss and improving system efficiency. Its high flexibility eases the diameter reduction and insertion process, while its low coefficient of friction allows it to slide smoothly during installation. Due to its thermal and chemical resistance, it is ideal for lining tubing used to convey oil and gas with condensate.
Market and applications
- Oil and gas.
- Internal lining of steel pipe (liners) in oil, gas and condensate transport systems.
- Suitable for production tubing.
- Suitable for flowlines and branch lines in conventional and unconventional fields.
- Used for corrosion and abrasion protection in environments with CO₂ or H₂S and fluids with solids or aggressive chemicals.
