Anti-extrusion layer with non-interlocked gap controlled hoop strength layer

摘要

In one aspect, the present disclosure relates to a tubular assembly with gap control. Embodiments disclosed herein relate to one or more embodiments of and methods for controlling gaps between helically wrapped layers in a pipe structure. A tubular assembly includes a fluid barrier, a first layer, and a second layer comprising a plurality of non-interlocking helical wraps and disposed on an outer surface of the first layer, in which the first layer is disposed between the fluid barrier and the second layer and configured to at least partially displace into a space created between adjacent non-interlocking helical wraps of the second layer.
