The material and construction of pipes greatly affect their complexity of usage in the oil and gas industry. While
Stainless Steel and Carbon Steel pipes are commons in high-pressure, high-temperature situations, PVC and
HDPE cater to lower pressure conditions. Copper and Nickel Alloy pipes prove their worth when heat resistance
and tight sealing are required. On the other hand, Fiberglass and PVDF pipes exhibit their strengths in well
casings and high purity applications, respectively. Finally, Galvanized pipes, with their rust prevention capabilities,
find applications in fluid and gas transportation.
