Field results show FibersparLinePipeTM can save 20% or moreover externally coated steel.Perfect for multiple applications andenvironments
Available in 2” to 6” nominal sizes, Pressure ratings of 750, 1,500 and 2,500 psi Operating temperatures from -29°F to 140°F, or-29°F to 180°F
Sweet or sour oil or gas gathering lines High-pressure water or CO2 injection systems Remediation of existing corroding steel flowlines Suitable for a wide range of capacity and temperature
requirements
Why the savings are real Faster, easier installation Zero corrosion and related
maintenance costs Rapid field-installed line connections Fit-to-purpose installation methods by
your contractors Strategically located deployment centers Innovative design and manufacturing
technology
Faster, easier installation – less than half the time withless manpower and equipment Projects staged at our deployment centers and
delivered installation ready
Long lengths (approximately 1 mile common) withminimal joints or connectors to reduce pipe handlingand to expedite installation
Light weight for improved safety and speed ofinstallation
No welds, coatings or x-ray inspections required Fiberspar Field Technician on location to
operate specialized equipment, and to provideexpert, continuous on-site support
Projects on-stream faster

Low maintenance costs – 100% corrosion free
No need for cathodic protection, wraps,coatings or internal chemical treatments
Low friction, smooth internal surface for betterflow properties
LinePipe can be pigged or hot oiled
Rapid, safe and reliable pipe-to-pipe orend connections – patented connectors install in30 minutes or less with hand tools Coated steel fittings Field installed Design safety factor 4x the pipe
operating rating No glues or epoxies used
Rapid, safe and reliable pipe-to-pipe orend connections Various configurations available
Welded on flanges -- standard Weld prep—standard Threaded ends, hammer unions or as required
Standard material: 4140 steel, coated forcorrosion resistance
Optional material Stainless, alloy or weldable steel Other metal grades and configurations by
customer request
Installation methods – designed for speed and safety,all extensively used to install Fiberspar LinePipe
Conventional open trench – fast, minimalfittings, less labor than jointed pipe LinePipe installs in 1/3 the time of jointed pipe in
many cases Can be pulled through bore holes below grade for
quick road and pipeline crossings Long and continuous lengths eliminate need for
welds, coatings and x-ray inspections Install in a continuous length even in irregular
trenches Same-day production in most cases
Installation methods
Plow installation – low footprint,unmatched cost savings
Can install multiple lines in a singlepass as deep as 8 ft (2.4 m)
Continuous lengths just undertwo miles
Plows matched to field conditions Permit rights-of-way that are narrower
and less costly than open ditchinstallation
Extensive field experience
Installation methods
Riser chute installation – minimize time andexpense Reduce costs and complexity of traditional rigid
steel risers Eliminate below-ground connections, 90-degree
fittings and fabricated metal add-ons Fiberspar best practices and installation guidelines
assure smoother installation
Installation methods
Surface lay – fastest and lowest costinstallation possible
Minimal environmental impact UV inhibitors protect the main laminate
from deterioration, for years of durableservice in exposed applications
Pipe should be protected in areas ofheavy traffic or road crossings
Installation methods
Remediation – the fastest and most economical routeto permanent flowline replacement with minimal grounddisturbance Far less costly than line replacement – minimal
excavation and surface disruption New line installed – not a repair Despite reduced flow area, better flow properties typically
result with no loss of capacity or increased pressure drop Remediation application supported with various specialty
services Wireline/winch for pull installations Patent-pending injector for push installations Injector/wireline combo for extremely long lengths, or
challenging terrain
More than 1,000 miles (1,500 kilometers) installed insidefailed steel lines to-date
Deployment centers – strategically located
Rapid response staging point for equipment andinventory California: Bakersfield Colorado: Grand Junction Texas: Houston, Freer, Big Spring, Kilgore Wyoming: Rock Springs Pennsylvania: Charleroi Alberta: Nisku, Lloydminster, Grande Prairie Saskatchewan: Estevan
