Engineering Plastics for the Oil and Gas Market

摘要

Many markets are growing rapidly and offer opportunity for the performance plastics industry to help them thrive. IAPD member companies should focus on all areas in which these industries have needs where performance plastics will solve their mission-critical issues. The oil and gas market is no different; it has three primary underlying needs: locate the oil, remove it quickly and safely and get it all. Applications in this market operate in high pressure, high temperature (HPHT) locations that have extremely corrosive environments. In order to meet these underlying needs, oil and gas workers must be able to monitor and maximize the accuracy of the information they gather. They can find this information with field instrumentation and equipment such as multiphase meters and remotely operated vehicles (ROV).
