Composite Riser Tubes: Defect Tolerance Assessment and Nondestructive Testing

Charles Sparks; Pierre Odru; Guy Metivaud; Christian Le Floc'h

The work presented in this paper was carried out as part of a Joint Industry Program to qualify composite tubes for use as TLP production/injection risers. The program included the study of the influence of different kinds of damage on tube performance and fatigue life, the assessment of NDT methods for detecting damage and its evolution, as well as ways of predicting the ultimate performance of severely fatigue tested tubes.
