Type: article
Abstract: The historical background of the appearance and production of non-metallic fiberglass pipes is given. It is shown that fiberglass pipes are increasingly being used in the oil industry due to their high corrosion resistance in ag-gressive environments (reservoir water, crude oil, drilling and process fluids) compared with steel pipes and high specific strength compared with thermoplastic polymers. The analysis of the use of pipelines in metallic and non-metallic designs is carried out. The experience of using non-metallic pipes made of innovative alternative materials at the deposits of the LUKOIL Group company RITEK LLC is considered and a conclusion is made about an increase in the service life of such pipelines with a corresponding decrease in the dynamics of failures. A review of the use of fiberglass pipes at the Serginsky deposit has been conducted and positive results have been noted during their operation
