Follow on Google News | Saint-Gobain Seals Technical Paper on Next Generation Materials Presented at Oil & Gas ConferenceSaint-Gobain Seals Group, a leader in designing and manufacturing high-performance seals and polymer components, will be presenting details of its next generation of materials at the High Performance Polymers for Oil & Gas Conference in Scotland.
By: Saint-Gobain Seals Group Christophe Valdenaire, Saint-Gobain Seals Group Market Manager – Energy, said, “We are honored to have been selected to present our technical paper at the High Performance Polymers Oil & Gas conference not only because we are able to share our innovations in sealing and polymer technology to address the challenges of this industry but also to be a part in recognizing the importance of on-going research, development and qualification of materials to move this industry forward.” The technical paper focuses on the impact of exposure at of high-performance and high temperature (HPHT) conditions (30 kpsi – 250°C) of thermoplastic materials used in spring-energized seals and back up rings (http://www.seals.saint- Saint-Gobain Seals Group embarked on the development of next generation of materials that can be used to fabricate the next generation of sealing solutions due to the rising need to improve Subsea Production Systems (http://www.seals.saint- Performance of the Seals Group’s next generation materials will be confirmed by experimental work as well as a proprietary FEA material model. Their research over the years indicates that elastomers have shown evidence of reaching their limits in terms of HPHT resistance, and thermoplastic sealing solutions offer a strong alternative because of their thermal and chemical resistant properties as well as their rapid gas decompression resistance.
