As this existing steel pipeline infrastructure ages, the need for repair or replacement to prevent failures from corrosion increases; 80% of inspection costs are spent on monitoring corrosion of steel pipes.* To improve longevity in these critical components, the industry is shifting to alternatives such as spoolable reinforced thermoplastic pipe (RTP).
RTP offers many benefits over steel throughout its lifespan starting with a 20% cost savings during the installation process due to reduced time and labor.* It requires less maintenance and monitoring while also providing improved flow characteristics over rigid steel pipe.
The corrosion resistance improvements provided by Polystrand-reinforced pipe offer significant savings in monitoring, inspection, and maintenance costs compared to traditional steel.
