Lightweight / high strength

m-pipe® has a strength of up to 1500 Mpa and a strain to failure in excess of 2%, this exceptional performance compared with steel and titanium enables m-pipe® to solve many of the problems associated with high pressure and deep water.

As a rule of thumb, an m-pipe® riser or jumper designed to match the pressure performance of conventional steel or flexible pipe would be 1/10th the weight.

For example:

Pipe Size Environment Flexible Steel m-pipe®
2000m 11"id 5000psi riser  In air  450t  400t  76t
   in water flooded  330t  350t  26t
60m 6"id 10,000psi jumper  In air  8.7t  7.5t  1.5t
   in water flooded  6.5t  6.6t  0.5t
