Let’s go deeper
Deepwater developments
In today’s dynamic world, fossil fuels are becoming
increasingly difficult to extract. Nowhere is this
more evident then in the offshore oil and gas
industry where this trend is driving the development
of lightweight materials to replace steel.
This is especially true in deeper and more remote waters,
requiring new technologies to extract oil more efficiently
from existing fields. In addition, with ever higher working
pressures, temperatures and more aggressive crudes
being extracted, the performance requirements of materials
used subsea are becoming increasingly demanding. In this
environment Twaron and especially Technora p-aramid fibers
come into their own.
