Mechanically Lined Pipe (MLP) as a Substitute for Metallurgically Clad Pipe

Global demand for natural gas is growing concurrently with traditional reservoirs depleting. This is
resulting in Global and Middle Eastern hydrocarbon exploration and production increasingly moving
towards hydrocarbon developments in deeper water where higher Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Hydrogen
Sulphide (H2S) along with High Temperature, High Pressure (HTHP) environments are encountered.
This is driving an increased demand for Corrosion Resistant Alloy (CRA) pipe and in particular clad
pipe. Clad pipe is the combination of carbon steel for strength combined with a thin (typically 3mm)
layer or CRA. Demand is increasing at a dramatic rate globally with the Middle Eastern market alone
expected to increase over 100% over the next 4 years from 2018 requirements [1]. Clad pipe is a
cheaper alternative than solid CRA and there is a number of alternate manufacturing methods. This
paper outlines the benefits of adopting Mechanically Lined Pipe (MLP) in comparison to conventional
Metallurgically Clad Pipe. A dramatic increase in utilisation of MLP over the coming years is anticipated,
balancing the currently dramatic CRA pipe supply/demand imbalance.
