High Performance Elastomers and Polymers for Oil and Gas Applications

This volume is dedicated to the Oil & Gas industry with polymeric solutions: designed to withstand extreme service temperature ranges and contact with harsh chemicals, oils and fluids, high performance elastomers and thermoplastics can be found in everything from subsea trees, well heads and umbilicals to piping and chemical processing plants.

Tomorrow's materials will need to withstand temperatures and pressures far higher than previously encountered in oil reserves and for this reason there must be continued research, development and qualification to reduce the need for costly intervention and respond to new challenges.
