Flexible Riser & Flowline
The use of pipe to transport oil and gas in both onshore and offshore environments is common but the innovation of flexible pipe has fostered increased versatility in oil and gas exploration and recovery.Flexible pipe has allowed for more effective and efficient flowline deployment and retrieval even in the most demanding environments.The key characteristics of the pipe are its flexibility, corrosion resistance, and the ability to handle extreme pressure and tensile loads.
Machine Systems
Pressure Armouring/Flexlock Machines
This machine is built to wind and interlock, steel "Flexlock" pressure armouring strips in long lengths on a flexible tube in a continuously wound helix for use in high pressure flexible pipe applications.
Tensile Armouring Machines
The basic function of the Tensile Armouring Machine is to apply a layer of round or rectangular steel strip onto the flexible pipe being produced.The angle, speed and size of strip that is applied are determined by the flexible pipe specification.
Carcass Machines
This process transforms a flat stainless steel strip into a fully interlocked section.
Pad Style Taping Heads
As part of the equipment that Bartell Machinery offers to support the Flexible Pipe Industry, Pad Style Taping Machines are available.These can be part of a main machine line (Carcass, Flexlock, Tensile Armouring) or installed separately as their own production line.
Bobbin Style Taping Heads
As part of the equipment that Bartell Machinery offers to support the Flexible Pipe Industry, Bobbin Style Taping Machines are available.These can be part of a main machine line (Carcass, Flexlock, Tensile Armouring) or installed separately as their own production line.
