Part I

Pipe systems were first developed from clay and wood, but since the Industrial Revolution, materials such as steel, ductile
iron, and concrete have become more prevalent. Fiberglass pipe was first developed in the 1950s to service the oil and
gas industry.
Today the world needs pipe to survive. We are reliant on water, gas, and oil, and pipes carry these materials from their
source to their users. Pipes also carry away waste and sewage, from factories and homes.
Pipes are used across a diverse number of end-markets for transmission and distribution or as engineering and
manufacturing components. Historically, certain pipe materials have been associated with particular end-markets and
applications e.g. steel pipes for gas transmission, however, fiberglass has gained increasing acceptance in many end-
markets.
Since the 1970s, fiberglass technology has evolved to enable fiberglass to be used as either the pipe material of choice or
a feasible alternative for certain applications and across all end-markets.
Fiberglass possesses certain physical qualities which for many applications makes it a superior alternative to traditionally
used pipe materials.
The Competitive Attributes of Fiberglass
Corrosion Resistant Fiberglass is fully resistant to a broad range of aggressive corrosive chemicals that are
frequently encountered in many industries today. Leakage from corrosion is significantly less than other materials
meaning a longer life than other more corrosive materials.
Lightweight - Lower transportation, installation cost, and a significantly lesser environmental impact during
construction and installation than other materials such as steel or concrete.
Durable - Survives harsh conditions with lower replacement needs than steel, ductile iron and concrete.
Efficient carrier - Better hydraulic performance than steel, ductile iron, and concrete.
No coatings are required and no cathodic protection systems are required.
Versatile material - Works in a multitude of applications and end-markets.

Industrial pipe systems have to meet high standards of performance with respect to temperature and chemical resistance.
In most piping applications involving corrosive service, fiberglass reinforced epoxy pipe systems are the best choice.
They are durable and resistant to an exceptionally wide range of corrosive chemicals and environments.
The information provided in this section will guide you through the chemical resistance tables of fiberglass reinforced
epoxy pipe systems.
The data of this guide are based on more than 35 years of field experience in which field and laboratory testing has
indicated good expected service life. However, it should be noted that combinations of chemicals, heat, flow rate, the
presence of solids, and other considerations capacity. Therefore, this
corrosion resistance guide is to be considered as a recommendation and not a guarantee.
Service life and corrosion resistance in an aggressive chemical environment depends on the total wall thickness, the
chemical type and concentration, the service temperature, the duration of use, and the type of product:
Yellow Box® Line Pipe and Red Box® Tubing & Casing Products (without Nexus liner)
Green Box Line Pipe and Blue Box® Tubing & Casing (with Nexus liner)
For the chemical resistance tables, the following should be noted:
In cases where NR is listed, this means that the chemical specified is not recommended for usage.
The temperature figure indicates the maximum allowable temperature limit.
In cases where a concentration is listed, this figure means the maximum concentration limit.
For chemicals, mixtures of chemicals, or actual operating conditions not mentioned in the following tables, or
lease consult Future Pipe Industries
before deciding on the suitability of fiberglass epoxy pipe systems for an application.

There are four parameters used in the flow rate chart for any fluid, three parameters must be known in order to calculate
the fourth parameter. The four parameters are the following:
Pipe Diameter (d) = Pipe nominal diameter in inches

Internal Operating Pressure (P) = Pipe internal pressure in psi
Flow Rate (Q) = Volumetric flow rate (barrels per day or gallons per minute)
Line Pipe Length (L) = Total length of line pipe in feet
Flow line transmitting Brine water with no elevation changes
Fluid type Brine water

Internal operating pressure = 1750 psi
Flow rate = 10,000 barrels per day
Total line pipe length = 20 miles

In order to more closely fulfill the requirements of particular fiberglass applications, Future Pipe Industries, Inc. offers a
variety of special product features to accommodating less common requirements and requests from our customers. The
following list details some of the typical such features.
Particularly in the case of down-hole products where tubing, liners, and casing
must be inserted into open hole or existing casing, a maximum connection outside diameter less than that of the
standard product is occasionally necessary. In these circumstances the bell shaped female thread connection
can, to a limited degree, be diminished by removing material on a lathe. This optional feature is more thoroughly
detailed later in this section.
Strap wrenches and strap equipped hydraulic tongs are normally used to makeup fiberglass
pipe and tubing. In order to do so the fabric belt must grip on the smooth glassy surface of the fiberglass and this
frequently presents slippage problems. To resolve this common problem, Future Pipe Industries, Inc. offers, a
patented process and product named . This consists of a sparingly applied rough coat surface
bonded to the upset area of the pipe. All strap type tools grip this surface firmly and positively and no
performance properties of the product are diminished by this feature.
A rough coat exterior consisting of number 0 blasting abrasive bonded to the exterior of
casing intended to be cemented into the well is available in all sizes. The abrasive is applied to the pipe surface
prior to curing which results in the coating being essentially integral to the casing body. The rough coat
consequently will not un-bond from the casing body and provides a strong permanent anchor pattern for the
intended cement.
In some sizes and circumstances Future Pipe Industries, Inc. offers

special non-
flush joints for down-hole applications as well as varying thread forms.

- and high pressure line pipe with threaded end

connections.
As this pipe may contain corrosive fluids and/or operate at a high pressure level, the instructions in this manual must be
followed to avoid serious personal injury or property damage.
Improper installation can cause injury or damage. Installation contractors should read and follow all cautions and warnings
to avoid personal injury. They should also: observe general safety practices with all the tools, wear protective clothing
when necessary and pay particular attention to section # 7 in this guide on testing.
We highly recommend that all installation contractors be trained by FPI before installing our fiberglass line pipe. For
It is the policy of FPI to improve its products continually. In accordance with this policy, FPI reserves the right to make
changes in specifications, descriptions, and illustrative material contained in this manual as the conditions warrant. The
information contained herein is general in nature and does not intend to express any warranty of any type whatsoever nor
shall any be implied.
This is a dynamic, live and in-process document which can be revised at any time by FPI based on the engineering
analysis of a given pipe system, changes in products or ongoing improvements in installation techniques.
We accept no responsibility for the interpretation of statements made.
This document contains confidential and proprietary information. Reproduction or disclosure of any part of this document
is only allowed with written authorization from Future Pipe Industries.
All rights are vested with Future Pipe Industries.

Upon arrival of a shipment, each pipe must be inspected. Check to see if the load has shifted, or shows signs of unusual
or rough handling. Unless rough handling is evident, usually only a normal visual inspection is sufficient. A shifted load or
other signs of rough treatment are cause for careful inspection of each joint. Look for light, discolored spots on the outside
of the pipe resulting from impact or mechanical damage. Check pipe ends for damage, especially when the material is
transported on a common carrier. Damaged or missing ite
agent immediately and leave the material as received for their inspection. Replacements for shortages and damaged
materials are not automatically reshipped. Replacement materials must be ordered in the normal manner. Also check the
bill of lading to assure accountability of all items.
1. Ensure the pipe ends are always protected with thread protectors.
2. Pin end and box end thread protectors shall cover the full length of the thread.
3. Ensure that the trailer bed is free from nails and sharp objects. Protect pipe against point loading or impact
damage at all times.
4. Flatbed trailers or other full surface trailers are recommended for hauling fiberglass pipe. Pole trailers are
specifically not recommended and any flatbed trailer used should be of sufficient length to avoid any unsupported
overhang of pipe ends.
5. Side stanchions, padded either with wood or carpet type padding are recommended for loads of a height over five
feet above the trailer bed. Four stanchions per side of the trailer within the length of the pipe load are sufficient.
6. Pipe layers should be stripped at four points along the axis of the pipe, one each three feet from each end and
two equally spaced between those end pieces. Stripping should be placed on the trailer bed as well as between
layers. In placement of the stripping attention should be given to the varying diameters of any given pipe caused
by the upsets and integral joint boxes. Stripping should be placed between a maximum of every third layer for
pipe of three inch size and down, between a maximum of every second layer for four inch through six inch, and
between each layer for larger than six inch. Stripping must be free of nails, staples, etc.
7. Crated pipe should be stripped with one two by six across the top of each frame layer within the load. Hence,
between each layer four stripping pieces should be positioned. These stripping pieces can be nailed to the top
piece of each crate.
8. Tie downs must be of a fabric type as opposed to bare chain or cable. Properly padded and sleeved chains and
cables may be used if the padding is in good condition.
1. Fittings are normally dispatched pre-packed in pallets or wooden boxes (Figure 3). All fittings in the box are
separated by corrugated sheet to prevent damage. It is recommended to store fittings in the same box until they
are required to be installed.
2. During shipping, strap the wooden boxes to the vehicle using pliable straps or nylon ropes.
3. When fittings are shipped individually, handle them manually (for small sized fittings) or on wooden pallets.
4. When loading and unloading, any mechanical handling equipment (such as metal slings, hooks and chains) must
not come into direct contact with fiberglass pipe nor fittings.
5. Unprotected flange faces should never be placed directly on the ground or on concrete floors.

1. Ensure the storage surface is clear, leveled, firm and free from rocks or any other sharp objects.
2. Pipe should be stored separately according to pressure class and diameter.
3. During storage, pipe shall be uniformly supported throughout the pipe length at all times by flat, cross boards
placed under each pipe layer with spacing not greater than 6 feet. The wooden supports shall cover the length of
the entire pipe until a maximum of 3 feet from the ends. Wooden wedges are used to prevent the stored pipe from
sliding. Wedges should be placed on both sides of the stack on the cross timbers.
4. If Fiberglass products will be stored for long periods (6 12 months) or subjected to high temperatures, they must
be covered with tarpaulins or polyethylene sheeting.
5. Crated pipe can be stacked and stored in the same crate as shipped.
6. It is important to note that pipe threads (both male and female) shall not be subjected to direct Ultraviolet (UV)
rays. Exposure to UV rays from the sun for an extended period of time causes thread disintegration. Hence it is
vital to cover them using the FPI-supplied thread protectors. In case no thread protectors are available at site,
cover the threads temporarily using dark tarpaulin sheet, and arrange for replacements. The pipe surface is
resistant to UV rays. For the pipe surface (non-threaded area), ultraviolet effects are only limited to surface
discoloration.
Fiber bloom or fazing may occur if the pipe is exposed to sunlight for a long period of time (1 2 years). As this
effect is only limited to the outer 0.1 to 0.25 mm of the pipe surface, the mechanical integrity of the pipe system is
not affected in any way. Pipe will operate at 100% of its rating with no effect on its physical properties
®
1. Teflon thread compound must be stored in its original packaging at temperatures between 10°C to 50°C. Make
sure that the container lid is always closed when not in use to prevent any contamination.
2. Keep the thread compound dry, away from frost and direct sunlight.
®
3. The shelf life of Teflon thread compound is 5 years from the production date, if stored at proper conditions.
®
4. Teflon thread compound does not cure after application on the threads as it is grease-based.
1. Thread sealant must be stored in its original packaging at temperatures between 10°C to 21°C.
2. Keep the thread sealant dry, away from frost and direct sunlight.
3. The Shelf Life is 6 months from the date of delivery if stored properly.

Future Pipe Industries, Inc. FPI recommends that customers with anything less than extensive experience in the
installation of eight round threaded fiberglass products utilize the services of our field service technicians. Services
provided range from furnishing an experienced fiberglass expert to advise and assist in the pipeline, tubing, or casing
installation to, in the case of line pipe and in some locations, the actual provision of the appropriate equipment, crew, and
supplies required to string, makeup, and test a fiberglass line. These services are charged on a day rate plus expenses
basis and are available worldwide.
Note that the services provided do not include earthwork, excavation, construction, design, or any activities not specifically
related to the assembly and makeup of the fiberglass products provided by Future Pipe Industries, Inc. Below are lists of
services typically provided for line pipe installations, Due to logistical constraints not all these services are available in
some locations.
Services and equipment available for the installation of fiberglass line pipe and fittings include the following:
Hands-on supervision and assistance in the unloading, storing, handling, and stringing of the pipe along the
pipeline right-of-way.
Expertise and recommendations relative to the ditch condition, padding, and general configuration of the pipeline,
manifold, or other fiberglass installation.

Future Pipe Industries, Inc. field personnel have extensive and effective experience in the installation of fiberglass
products in all forms of applications. Typically they can be of assistance in many aspects of a fiberglass project, only
some of which are listed above. Their responsibilities, however, do not include the success or failure of a given project
employees. Field installation services are typically not available for products not manufactured by Future Pipe Industries,
Inc.

1. Pipe unloading alongside the trench may be done from a frame trailer or a regular truck provided that each joint is
handled individually and is set carefully on the ground. The thread protectors must remain in place throughout the
stringing operation.
2. Pipe stringing should be done on the ditch side opposite to the excavated dirt as close as possible to the ditch to
avoid any additional handling.
3. Allow sufficient space between the pipe and the trench for excavator, cranes, etc. Avoid placing the pipe where it
can be damaged by equipment traffic. If possible, store all pipe on soft level ground (ex: sand), wooden supports,
or sand bags.
4. Pipe stringing should be done with the pin end in the direction of flow and the box end toward the pressure
source. The flow should flow out of the pin and into the following box.
Pipe stringing inside the trench Pipe stringing above the trench
1. Trench excavation should not be too far ahead of the pipe laying team to ensure better control of the trench as
well as for safety reasons. The excavated soil should be placed on one side of the trench, while allotting the other
side for pipe or lifting equipment. If the trench consists of various layers of soils, these should be placed
separately in order to use stone-free material for backfill.
2. Trench width must be maintained within certain limits. Minimum trench width depends on the method which is
used to make-up the pipe. The minimum recommended trench width is given in Table A.
3. The trench should be deep enough to allow the deposit of a protective padding layer of sand or fine grain soil.
The bottom of the trench should be uniform in depth to avoid uneven bearing on the pipeline. When there is no
traffic load over the pipe, the minimum burial depth is 3.5 feet. In case of traffic loads, refer to Table B.
4. After the excavation of the trench, any sharp objects or rocks left in the trench should be removed or padded prior
to laying the line pipe inside the trench.
5. Do not violate the bending radius limitations indicated in the product technical data sheets. Any bends in excess
of such radii should be accommodated by an appropriate fitting or by adjustment of the trench.
6. Conduit is recommended for road crossings and centralizers are recommended within the conduit as well.
Centralizers must be placed such that at no point is the pipe in contact with the steel conduit. In lieu of conduit,
an additional one foot layer of pad sand may be used above the pipe. See , and
7. In configurations involving fittings where the line changes directions, reduces, or where excessive expansion
variations are anticipated, thrust blocks, particularly in cases where the operating pressure exceeds 1500 psi, are
recommended. Thrust blocks should be constructed from cast concrete and should surround the fitting entirely to
the following dimensions in all directions:
2" - 3" Fittings 18"
4" - 6" Fittings 24"
8" - 12" Fittings 36"

Pipe lowering should always take place in a dry trench. It is not acceptable to lay pipe in flooded trenches. The civil
contractor should provide necessary dewatering equipment to enable the installation in a dry trench. In order to prevent
3
pipe from floating, a minimum cover depth equal to one pipe diameter of granular soil (minimum dry density of 118 lbs/ft )
must be provided. If a specific analysis is made of the buoyant force of an empty pipe compared to the submerged weight
of soil over the pipe, this minimum cover may be reduced. Always ensure that this minimum cover is available before
turning off the dewatering pump.

All joints supplied are designed with an extra thickness or upset at each end. During the makeup, breakout, or any
operations involving the application of a strap wrench, chain tong, or other gripping device, only this upset area
should be used.
Warning: Do not use conventional steel pipe wrenches to make up fiberglass pipe. Steel pipe wrenches apply
concentrated point loading on the pipe wall and can easily damage the pipe. Use of pipe wrenches will void Future

for the recommended type and number of wrenches for make-up of Yellow Box and Green Box
Strap wrenches ( and ) distribute the torque circumferentially and are recommended to help
prevent placing too much torque on the connection. For best results when using strap wrenches, the strap should be
free from grease, thread lubricant, etc. Use a silica-based powder (Comet or Ajax powder) to prevent the strap
wrench from slipping. A wire brush may be needed to clean any residue from the straps prior to fresh powder to the
inside of the strap.
When using a strap wrench, ensure not to point-load the tubing. Point loading can collapse or damage the pipe wall
when the wrench is pointed perpendicular into the pipe.
Two types of strap wrenches are commonly used:

®
1. Ridgid No. 5 strap wrench (
this wrench is approximately 18" long.
2. The 24" cast aluminum strap wrench ( Error! Reference source not found. ) Is normally used with 4" and

2. Stiff bristle brush to clean threads ( ).
Two types of stands are commonly used to support the pipe during joint makeup:
1. Pipe jack ( ) or adjustable pipe-stand ( ).

2. Lazy board or fixed pipe-stand ( ).
®
FPI recommends using TF-15 thread compound and Teflon tape for all liquid applications.
® ®
Teflon tape should be 25 mm wide and 0.1 mm thick and shall contain 100% Teflon .
®
Minimum properties of Teflon thread compound for use on the threads:
®
1. 15% minimum Teflon content.
®
1. 60 to 120 mesh Teflon particle size (powder is unacceptable).
2. The lubricant must be of API standard oilfield thread lube composition.
3. The lubricant should not be thickened with abrasives, clay, etc.
For all dry gas applications, FPI recommends a polysulfide based thread sealant. This one-part sealant cures in
between 10-15 minutes once exposed to moisture or humidity. Once the sealant is applied on the threads, a small
amount of water is sprayed before the joint makeup by using a water spray bottle. This thread sealant should be
considered permanent in that disassembly of a connection made with this compound is problematic. This thread
sealant should also be used on all large-diameter with 6 round threaded connections, and on all pressure classes
above 172.5 bar (2,500 psig).

It is difficult to give a broad recommendation for the number of people needed on a specific installation since this varies
with the type of installation. The personnel requirements vary depending on the pipe size, pipe weight, and installation
location, surroundings of the job site, weather conditions and other similar influences. Generally, a minimum of five people
are needed to install threaded fiberglass line pipe. The normal number of personnel required to operate each installation
tool is given below:
Strap wrench 1
Friction wrench 2
Chain tong 2
Power tong 2
Pipe stand 1
If it is required that the pipeline be left unattended for more than 1 hour (example: during lunch hour), thread caps or
similar protection should be installed on open ends of the installed line. This is to avoid any sand / dirt / mud from intruding
into the line. It is required that any open ends of the line be capped overnight.
In case of sand/dust storm, snow, hail or rain, use an appropriate shelter such that the joint to be made up is protected
from adverse weather conditions. In case of sunny, cold, humid or foggy weather, joint installation can continue as normal
provided the sealing compound is stored at the correct conditions described in sections 13.4.2 and 13.4.3
All pipe, fittings and components shall be visually inspected for damages that may have occurred during shipment. 100%
of the exterior surface shall be inspected visually and the internal surface shall be inspected where accessible. Defective
pipe or fittings must not be used in the pipe system.
Threads shall be cleaned before any visual inspection. In case the integrity of the threads is under doubt, the site
supervisor shall be contacted to check the fitness of the thread. A detached thread may lead to cross threading, in which
case the joint needs to be backed out and the threads must be re-examined for any possible damage.
Threads shall be free from visible tears, cuts, grinds, shoulders or any other imperfections which break the continuity of
the threads within the normal mating surface on the pin and the box at the final makeup position. Superficial scratches
and surface irregularities that do not affect the continuity of thread surfaces are occasionally encountered and may not
necessarily be detrimental. Use API 15HR as a reference for acceptable visual standards for threads. As a guide to
acceptance, the most critical consideration is to ensure that there are no detectable protrusions on the threads to score
mating surfaces. During installation, if thread damage is suspected, lay the joint aside and replace it. In case a wrong
makeup is observed, break out the connection and continue installation as normal after inspecting the retrieved threads.
If the thread has been previously used and is being reinstalled, remove sand, dirt or any foreign material which may cause
improper make up and sealing. Wash pin and box threads with mineral spirit or a solvent such as acetone which will
remove the old thread lubricant, tape or foreign material. Dry both threads completely. Any liquid left in the base of the
threads will prevent good thread lubrication.
Thread compound shall be inspected prior to its use, ensuring that there is no foreign matter
®
- In case the Teflon thread compound is used, ensure that it is between 10°C and 50°C for optimum brush-ability.
- In case thread sealant is used, ensure that its temperature is between 40°C and 55°C to ensure correct application.

The procedures in this section are general in nature. More specific, additional details may be provided during the actual
installation in the form of project specific work instructions. It must be ensured that all levels of staff are aware of these
procedures in order to ensure the quality of connection. It is important that only qualified personnel perform the thread
makeup procedure. The objective is to ensure that the installed pipeline will meet the specified performance requirements.
Although these procedures are as complete as possible, it is impossible to describe every circumstance that may be

In case the joining is performed without the supervision of FPI

application) lies with the end-user, or their contractor.
1. On some occasions the trench dimensions allow the makeup of joints to be performed in the ditch. In most cases,
it is not feasible and the pipeline must be assembled outside the trench and then lowered into the ditch.
2. The following procedure should be observed when performing the actual makeup of the joints.
a. The thread protectors should remain in place until immediately prior to the actual makeup process. Once removed
the threads should be inspected to insure that they are clean and dry. If necessary, a light application of a dry
hard bristle brush may be used to remove any sand or dirt from the box and pin threads.
b. Once clean, the Teflon tape can be applied to the pin thread. Teflon tape is recommended for any line pipe
applications. Though 8Rd threads will seal with thread compound only, Teflon tape allows a wider and more
forgiving margin in terms of the accuracy of the makeup torque applied to the joint. To apply the tape, a one inch
or wider roll ( )
i. Should be rolled, under tension, around the pin threads in a clockwise direction.
ii. Starting at the pin nose, or smallest thread of the pin, wind clockwise up the pin thread to the fourth thread from
the end. Reverse direction and continue winding back down the pin to the last and smallest thread or starting
point. The tape should be lapped enough to ensure full coverage on every application revolution.
c. After application of the tape, both the box and pin should be covered thoroughly with thread compound. The
compound must be a low shear type compound. Dependent on conditions, TFC#15, Enhanced TFC#15, or OCT
sealant, without Teflon tape, are recommended. Consult with FUTURE PIPE INDUSTRIES, INC. for the
appropriate recommendation for each application. ( )
The following are typical compound and tape usage rates:
Pipe Size Per Gallon Pail Per Roll of Tape
2" 3,200 ft. (approx. 107 connections) 240 ft (approx. 8.0 connections)
2-1/2" 2,800 ft. (approx. 93 connections) 210 ft (approx. 7.0 connections)
6"-L 1,100 ft. (approx. 37 connections) 60 ft (approx. 2.0 connections)
8" 600 ft. (approx. 20 connections) 30 ft (approx. 1.0 connection)
10" 500 ft. (approx. 17 connections) 26 ft (approx. 0.8 connections)
10"-L 450 ft. (approx. 15 connections) 22 ft (approx. 0.7 connections)
12" 390 ft (approx. 13 connections) 20 ft (approx. 0.67 connections)
d. Once the thread compound is applied, the single joint should be raised and lined upon an axis common to the
preceding line and the pin gently introduced into the box. Both the made up line and the consecutive single joint
should be supported. Adjustable pipe jacks or pipe stands are recommended for this support and much care must
be given to proper alignment both at the start of the makeup and throughout the torque application process. Poor
alignment at the start of the makeup will cause a cross thread in the connection, and poor alignment later in the
makeup will produce inaccurate and misleading torque indications.

e. The thread makeup should be delicately started by hand and the alignment of the connection should be
constantly observed to avoid cross threading.
The position of the far end of the single joint should be adjusted as the initial makeup proceeds in order to
maintain a smooth constant rotation which will require a steady increase of torque necessary to turn the joint
deeper into the connection. The connection should be made up in this fashion until hand tight and then, in sizes
4" and smaller, tightened with a strap wrench.
If the
pipe does not make up properly, and at the first indication of a misaligned or improper makeup, back the joint out,
clean the threads, inspect the threads carefully for cross thread damage, reapply Teflon tape and sealing
compound, and remake the joint.
f. For sizes 5" and larger, after the hand tight makeup as described above is concluded, the connection should be
tightened with 36" chain wrenches. One wrench should serve as the backup on the existing line while the other
wrench, equipped with a four foot cheater is used to tighten the single joint. Be certain to latch the chain wrench
only on the Strap-Lock area in the heavier upset area of the pipe a few inches back from the threads. Pipe
wrenches are not recommended as they apply a less distributed bearing on the circumference of the pipe. Apply
torque as per the table below without "bouncing" on the wrench.
g. Power tongs, if particularly designed to apply controlled torque to fiberglass pipe without damaging the pipe body,
are recommended for all pipe sizes and are strongly recommended for the larger sizes where the higher torques
are difficult to apply accurately by hand.

i. When lowering the line into the ditch, care must be taken not to allow it to "whip" into the trench. It should be
gently and consecutively lowered and control over the position of the line must be maintained at all times.
Care must also be exercised against the tendency to dislodge rocks and other sharp or hard material from the
trench sidewalls or from the surface onto the line by the lowering action.

1. Pressure testing is normally required to ensure that the assembled line will withstand the required operating
pressures.
2. Prior to testing, the line should be padded and fully back-filled over the body area of the pipe between the
connections to secure the line and minimize the movement caused by the testing pressure. At this stage thrust
blocks, if required, should be in place and cured. Connections should be left open and observable for inspection
during the test.
3. Water is the most common media used to perform the test and the necessary quantity should be introduced into
the pipeline in such a manner as to evacuate all air from the line prior to introducing the test pressure. Shorter
lines may be configured in such a manner as to allow one end to be elevated whereby the air will naturally
evacuate as the line fills. Most lines however will require the use of a simple flexible foam pig which is introduced
into the line at the pressure end and pumped through the line under continuous pressure. Any significant amount
of air which remains entrapped in the line during the test will become compressed during the pressurization and
may produce confusing and misleading fluctuations in the pressure readings. On longer and larger lines be sure
to have enough test water on hand to fill the line continuously as significant interruptions to wait for additional
water will defeat the pig's purpose to evacuate the air from the line.
4. Once filled and free of air, the line should be closed off at the far end and the pressure increased in increments
with a waiting period of a minimum of three minutes between each increase. 400 psi per increment is
recommended until the desired pressure is reached. The waiting periods allow the minor movement and growth
in the line caused by the pressure to stabilize.
5. The field test pressure should not exceed 1.1 times the internal rated pressure of the pipe, unless discussed
otherwise with Future Pipe Industries. After reaching test pressure the pump apparatus should be isolated from
the line by the valve on the test header. Several pressure fluctuations which are not leak related may then be
observed. Initially the pressure will drop slightly as the line moves and grows to accommodate the pressure. This
fluctuation will then stabilize. The pressure may, however, be significantly affected by changes in the ambient
temperature; an increase in temperature will produce an increase in pressure while a decrease in temperature will
produce a decrease in pressure.
Further, the pressure may fluctuate either up or down as the temperature of the test water adjusts to the
difference in environment between the truck's tank and the pipeline. If the pressure increases above the intended
test pressure of the pipe, it must be bled off accordingly.
1. Back-filling should be accomplished as soon as possible after testing to avoid any damage due to cave-in,
flooding, or freezing of the test water in the line. Release the test pressure from the line prior to back-filling. If
weather conditions have the potential to freeze the test water in the line, the water must be cleared from the line
by forcing a flexible foam pig through the line with compressed air. Frozen test water will, in virtually all
circumstances, cause the pipeline to crack.
2. Sand or loose fine particle soil pad should be placed over the line at a thickness of one foot. The natural fill can
then be deposited on top of that pad. Be certain that the line is well and evenly supported by the padding beneath
the line. Avoid any bridging configurations and keep the line in the center of the trench surrounded on all sides by
padding. Multiple lines that are in the same ditch should be separated by padding and not allowed to contact.
3. Appropriate hand or mechanical tamping shall be carried out by the civil contractor to achieve the specified
degree of compaction required. During the first one or two lifts, special care should be taken to place and to
compact the backfill material under the pipe haunches, which could be achieved manually by means of a wooden
board. This step is important during installation and should be executed with care. Refer to
4. The Contractor should note that the compaction of clean and mixed sand is best achieved when the material is at

its optimum moisture content. While the wetting of sand is recommended prior to compaction, trench flooding
should be avoided to prevent the pipe from floating. Following the first two layers where the backfill has been
correctly placed, compaction should proceed from the sides of the trench towards the pipe. Clean backfill must be
used with vibrator equipment to avoid driving stones or foreign material into the pipe wall. Refer to .
: Backfilling pipe-haunches : Compaction after backfill.
Threads. When connecting into steel female 8Rd threads, which are API 8Rd EUE short form, a number of excess
threads must be cut off the fiberglass pin. The following table details the length of the cuts required for each pipe size.
When making up a steel short form pin into a fiberglass box, no adjustments are necessary. The connections on pipe
sizes larger than 4" are API 8Rd Casing Long Form, which typically is the thread type used on the same larger steel pipe.
2" - Cut off 5 threads (5/8" long)

2-1/2" - Cut off 6 threads (3/4" long)
Larger than 4" - No adjustment necessary
A regular hacksaw can be used to cut off the excess threads. When making up fiberglass to steel threaded connections
always use the fiberglass torque value detailed previously in
All fittings involving a change in direction, such as elbows or tees, require concrete thrust blocks to avoid distorting and
cracking the fitting as a consequence of the misdirected axial thrust of the two intersecting lines. Future Pipe Industries,
Inc. recommends that thrust blocks be poured to encapsulate the entirety of the fitting extending a minimum of two and a
half pipe diameters in length down the incoming and outgoing joints of pipe connected into the fitting. Further, the
concrete should extend around the fitting two and a half times the fitting diameter in all directions. See the diagram in this
section for details. Fittings should be made up to the same torque value as that specified for the equivalent size pipe.
Fiberglass flanges are flat face configuration flanges and should be mated with flat face steel flanges only. If a raised face
flange must be used a spacer ring should be used to take up the raised face shoulder and present a flat surface to the
fiberglass flange face. See . Flange bolt torque values are detailed below and should be observed.

Depending on site conditions, there are primarily three methods for repairing a leaking RTR line:
If a spare joint of pipe of correct length and correct configuration is available on site, it may be easier to replace the
leaking joint by using a spare joint and a set of fiberglass flanges.
Prior to initiation of this repair procedure, ensure that enough backfill is excavated so as to enable movement of pipeline
during repair and flange alignment. If site conditions do not allow such excavation, then two sets of flanges can be used
instead of one set to minimize excavation length.
There are 4 different types of leakage:
1. Leaking joint (integral box).

2. Leaking joint (coupling).
3. Leaking pipe (between integral boxes).
4. Leaking pipe (between couplings).
Replacement of the leaking line with each of these types is outlined in Figure 4, Figure 5, Figure 6 and Figure 7
respectively.

Replacement of a leaking straight pipe section (between couplings).

1. A factory repair joint is simply a full length joint of pipe cut into two sections with a set of flanges in the middle.
2. This repair joint is shipped from the factory in two sections, such that it forms a full pipe length from end-to-end when
assembled. These two sections consist of box-flange and pin-flange configuration respectively.
3. The leaking pipe in the field is cut into two sections and each section is unscrewed from the adjacent joints.
4. Both sections of the repair joint are installed and the flanges are then bolted up.

Strap Wrench
Strap wrenches ( and ) distribute the torque circumferentially and are recommended to help
prevent placing too much torque on the connection. For best results when using strap wrenches, the strap should be
free from grease, thread lubricant, etc. Use a silica-based powder (Comet or Ajax powder) to prevent the strap
wrench from slipping. A wire brush may be needed to clean any dirt or residue from the strap.
When using a strap wrench, ensure not to point-load the tubing. Point loading can collapse or damage the pipe wall
when the wrench is pointed perpendicular into the pipe.
Two types of strap wrenches are commonly used:

A. Conventional Square Shoulder Elevators: can be used to install fiberglass tubing with the threaded and coupled
connection. However, due to the larger outside diameter (O.D.) of fiberglass tubing, the next larger size elevator may
be required. See product data sheets to determine proper elevator size.
Conventional elevators can lock up on the integral joints or point load which can causes damage to the integral
joint/build-up area.
B. Slip-Type Elevators: are required when installing fiberglass tubing with the integral joint connection, unless lift pins
or pick up subs are used.
Refer to Red Box ® and Blue Box ® Product Data sheets for Maximum box O.D. dimensions. Use these dimensions
to determine the proper size slips.
Conventional air slips or spider slips may be used during installation.
Fiberglass tubing Button-type slips are not recommended.
Do not let slips ride on the tubing while the tubing is being installed.
Fiberglass tubing is suitable for use with most packers, but in most cases it is not recommended to set the packer
with the fiberglass string. While the tensile capacities of the fiberglass typically exceed the setting requirements for
most tension set packers, if there are problems during running or setting the packer, the fiberglass string is not likely
to be strong enough to take the punishment required to resolve those problems. Hence, it is recommended that the
packer, equipped with an on-off tool, be set with a steel work string. The work string is then pulled and the fiberglass
is run into the hole with the on-off tool and latched into the packer.
Installation temperatures vs. operating temperatures must be accounted for in design and installation. The injection
or production of hot fluids may cause fiberglass tubing to elongate and release the packer or on/off tool. Cold fluids
may apply extra tensile forces to the tubing string.
A. Tension Packers: are normally used with fiberglass tubing in high fluid level wells. FPI recommends using
tension packers with a 25,000 lbs. shear ring. Standard elements or soft elements may be used as long as the
tensile ratings of the product are not exceeded. Scale and build-up may occur below the packer where salt water
exits the packer. Since releasing a tension packer requires movement down the hole, this build-up may prevent
below the
packer.

B. Permanent (or Drillable) Packers: are often set by wire line or a steel work string. Either locator or anchor type
seal assemblies can be run on the tubing. If seal assemblies are used, a latch-in assembly is recommended to
prevent cyclic tensile loading and to prevent pumping the seals out of the packer bore during operation.
Red Box ® & Blue Box ® tubing and casing may be set in compression under circumstances which will alleviate the
possibility of buckling. When setting a packer or latching into a permanent packer, note the following:
1) The weight of the tubing string prior to pulling tension shall not exceed the tensile rating of the tubing.
2) Packers should be equipped with a soft (50-65 durometer hardness) rubber to insure a seal at lower tensile
levels.
-
latching into permanent packers. A right-hand release on all packers or on/off tools is recommended.
On larger diameter fiberglass tubing the weight of a single joint can be several hundred pounds. This weight can
cause problems when applying proper torque. This dead weight can be offset by a compensator or counter weight,
single joint compensator makes applying torque much easier and more precise.
FPI recommends an annular blow out preventer for potential well control closure. Most fiberglass tubing products
ubing ram preventers may not properly mate and seal.
When closed, both annular and tubing ram preventers exert a closure force on the tubing. The force depends on:
1) The type of the preventer.
2) The amount of hydraulic closing pressure to the preventer.
3) The well bore pressure or test pressure applied below the closed preventer.
1. Slip Type Well Heads

Refer to dimensional data in Red Box ® & Blue Box ® Product Data sheets before selecting the proper slip type well
head, since the fiberglass tubing normally has a larger O.D. than the steel tubing.
If the well head slips, rings and rubber do not match the fiberglass tubing O.D., options are the following:
To machine the slips and pack off rings from an old well head to match the fiberglass tubing O. D.
S s which are available from FPI.
2. Flanged Type Well Heads

FPI recommends the following procedure when using flanged type well heads. A stainless steel sub, coated sub, etc.
should be used between a flanged type well head and the fiberglass tubing string. Or, the flanged type well head
should have an 8-round EUE long tapered thread form per API Standard 5B, Table 6, 7 or 14.
The fiberglass tubing string must not hang directly from a connection of fiberglass to steel with a short thread form.
Do not screw the flanged type well head directly onto the tubing with valves, etc. on top of the flange. The extra
weight may damage the FRP tubing threads. Separate them before installing.
fiberglass tubing. Indicators should be calibrated for accuracy just prior to installation and be capable of displaying a
minimum of 500 pound increments. Accurate weight indicators must be on the rig and working at all times.
1. On all steel-to-fiberglass connections examine the steel threads carefully to insure that no burrs are present. Any
steel burrs will damage the fiberglass threads. In order to insure that there are no burrs, chase the steel thread
(making up and breaking out) with another steel thread.

2. If a full joint of steel tubing is to be added to a fiberglass string, care must be taken to insure that the weight of the
hanging steel joint is supported by a single joint compensator and that the fiberglass female connection at no time
during the makeup be required to support the steel joint. If the weight of the steel joint is supported by the
fiberglass threads during the makeup, damage to the fiberglass threads may occur.
Fiberglass tubing and casing differs from steel and requires different handling and running techniques. The method of
manufacture results in dimensions that do not always correspond with steel tubular dimensions. Of particular concern are
the variations in outside and upset diameters which do not, in general, correspond with the standard dimensions of steel
tubing.
Care should be taken when unloading tubing and casing. Do not drop or throw. A minimum of two (2) men are required to
move fiberglass tubular of less than 4 inches in nominal diameter. On larger sizes a third man or handling equipment is
recommended
Most fiberglass tubing failures are the result of improper makeup of the threaded connections. FPI, INC. Tubing and
casing utilize an integral joint or threaded and coupled 8Rd or 6Rd threaded connections. To achieve a structurally
sound, leak tight connection, it must be properly made-up to a controlled torque level using the proper thread compound.
The following procedures are recommended
1. When picking up joints from the racks do not allow pin threads to be exposed. Replace any thread protectors that
may be missing. Unprotected pin ends may drag and be damaged.
2. Standard elevators can, in most cases, be used to run fiberglass tubing. It is always advisable to measure the
upset diameter of the fiberglass tubing and to make sure that the slip dimensions are correct. In some cases, the
slips must be dressed to fit the fiberglass tubing in order to avoid any single point contact that might damage the
tubing. Square shoulder elevators can be used up to a maximum 3,000 lbs. string weight or for any threaded and
coupled strings.
Use: MYT elevators for 2-3/8" and 2-7/8" size tubing,
YT elevators for 3-1/2" and 4-1/2" size tubing, and
YC elevators for 5-1/2" and larger size tubing or casing
Special considerations may be required when string weight exceeds 20,000 lbs. to assure trouble free running for
fiberglass tubular. (Note that the weights may refer to immersed weights, which account for the weight reducing
effect of buoyancy. Buoyancy Factor for fiberglass is about 0.5, much lower than for steel).
3. Do not set the slips while the fiberglass tubing is being raised or lowered.
4. If steel-to-fiberglass connections are required examine the steel threads carefully to insure that no burrs are
present. In connecting any steel connections to fiberglass the fiberglass torque values must be used.
5. If a full joint of steel tubular is to be added to a fiberglass string, care must be taken to insure that the weight of
the hanging steel joint be supported by a single joint compensator and that the fiberglass female connection at no
time during the makeup be required to support the steel joint. If the weight of the steel joint is supported by the
fiberglass threads during the makeup, damage to the fiberglass threads may occur.
6. When connecting into a steel female thread such as a submersible pump or packer, make sure that the steel
thread is a 8Rd long thread up to 4-1/2" size, 8Rd casing long thread for sizes 5-1/2" through 9-5/8", and 8Rd
casing short for 10- -
required to cross from the 6 round thread to the conventional 8 round thread.
In the smaller sizes, if the steel thread is 8Rd short thread and cannot be changed out to long thread, a steel
changeover to long thread is recommended. In case the fiberglass pin must be made up into steel short thread,
use the following guide in cutting off fiberglass long form 8Rd threads.

2-3/8" size - Cut off 5 threads (5/8" long)

There will be some loss of tensile strength from published values because of the shortened pin thread.
7. Thread compound must be a low shear type compound. Dependent on conditions, TFC#15, Enhanced TFC#15,
or APT sealant are recommended. Consult with FUTURE PIPE INDUSTRIES, INC. for the appropriate
recommendation for each application.
a. Apply the TFC#15 compounds to the pin and box using a "moustache" type brush. The compound is to
be lightly and uniformly applied. The general thread form should be just visible after application of
compound. Teflon tape may be recommended on some larger diameter casing applications and it is
always recommended on fiberglass to steel connections. Apply two passes of tape, down and up the pin
threads.
b. APT sealant is applied using a caulking gun and a comb to distribute the compound over the threads.
See the written instructions with the compound for full details as to the application procedure. Refer to
&
c. NOTE: Field experience indicates that thread compounds formulated with silicon base grease or oils will
significantly reduce makeup torque requirements.
Typical thread compound usage:

Size Per Gallon Pail
2-3/8" 3,200 ft. (Approx. 107 connections)
7" 1,200 ft. (Approx. 40 connections)
9-5/8" 600 ft. (Approx. 20 connections)
10-3/4" 500 ft. (Approx. 17 connections)
11- 420 ft. (Approx. 14 connections)
13- 360 ft (Approx. 12 connections)
It is advisable to order at least one extra gallon of thread compound over the calculated requirement.

8. Start the connections by hand and makeup to the hand tight position. Do not force threads. If hand makeup
becomes a problem, back out the connection, clean, re-apply thread compound and try again.
9. Complete the makeup using a strap wrench or a power tong that has been demonstrated to be capable of
makeup without damage to the pipe body. Position the strap or the tong jaws on the heavier upset area of the
tubing. Controlled torque is required to ensure a leak tight connection. On larger sizes a chain wrench can be
used to make up and to back up. See &
It is recommended that torque control be established using an electronic strain gage/load cell type device.
Hydraulic pressure gages that monitor the hydraulic pressure delivered to a hydraulic tong have proven unreliable
for this application.
NOTE: Fiberglass-to-fiberglass tightening torque levels are significantly lower than those required for steel
connections.

10. When making-up steel-to-fiberglass connections, use the torque value for the fiberglass.
11. Red Box® tubing may be set in compression only under particular circumstances which alleviate the possibility of
buckling. If considering a compression set, contact Future Pipe Industries, Inc. personnel for information. When
setting a packer or latching into a permanent packer, note the weight of the tubing string prior to pulling tension.
Be certain not to exceed the tensile rating of the tubing when setting the string in tension. Packers should be
equipped with soft, 50 durometer hardness rubber to insure a seal at the lesser tensile values of fiberglass tubing.
12. When pulling fiberglass tubing, do not rotate the connection after threads have disengaged. Do not allow the
threads to jump out under tension or jump out and fall back on the stationary threads.
13. When pulling fiberglass tubular, do not allow the slip dies to rub against the pipe body. Set the slips carefully to
avoid impact damage. Make certain the blocks are completely stopped before setting the slips.
14. All threaded connections should be cleaned prior to use. Cleaning on the rack with a medium pressure water jet
or steam cleaner is recommended. Do not use powered brushes or wire bristle brushes. Solvent cleaning with a
fast drying non-residue solvent, such as methylene chloride is acceptable. Do not use diesel fuel as a final
cleaning agent. Following cleaning, thread protectors should be installed.

Installed FPI down-hole tubing should be tested prior to use to assure soundness of all joints and connections.
Sud
can produce pressures of several times the operating pressure and or rating of the tubing. Testing with air or gas is
extremely dangerous and should not be done.
Note: All fiberglass tubing strings should be anchored at the bottom to prevent compressive loads or cyclic tensile
loading which can damage the tubing and shorten life expectancy.
A. Annular Testing
Tubing is normally tested by pressurizing the annulus after the string has been installed. Most state
regulatory agencies require this type of testing. Note: If a string is installed with a tension packer,
pressurizing the annulus will place a downward force on the packer. This downward force will be converted
to an added tensile load on the tubing if the packer moves.
When tubing is installed with a tension packer, caution should be used not to exceed the collapse and
tensile ratings of the tubing.
Fluid differentials should be calculated prior to testing to assure that collapse ratings are not exceeded. The
formula most often used in the industry to calculate differential (i.e. bottom hole head pressure vs. collapse
pressure) is as follows:
Head Pressure, psi = 0.052 × weight of fluid (lbs./gal.) × depth of packer (ft.)
B. Internal Testing of Single Joints

Red Box ® tubing can be internally tested during installation by using a tubing test truck. FPI recommends
using a bar tool or mandrel with expandable elements. This tool is also referred to as a sliding piston with a
double hose hook up.
A single hose joined by rods with cups and slips can also be used, but the cups must be replaced every
few joints due to the sharp pin ends on fiberglass tubing. FPI recommends hydro testing by this method
above the slips.
C. Filling and Pressurizing the System

FPI recommends introducing water into the annulus or tubing, preferably with a 1" line and bleed off the air.
Allow ample time for all air or gas to escape. This procedure may require adding water to the annulus or
tubing several times until all air or gas have escaped. After the system is filled and all air purged, the outlet
can be slowly brought up to the desired test pressure. Increase the pressure in maximum 250 psi
increments every five minutes to the desired pressure rating. Do not exceed the operating and or pressure
rating of the lowest rated element in the system.
FPI recommends that in low static fluid level wells to never apply the total injection pressure without first filling the
tubing with fluid. If pressure is applied without first bleeding off all the air or gas, severe water hammer may occur
.
These procedures should be followed every time the well has been removed from operation and is being put back
into service.
If a tubing string is tested with air or gas, FPI will not be responsible for any resulting injury to personnel or damage
to property, including the pipe or tubing. If there is no alternative to testing with air or gas, FPI will recommend test
procedures and precautions to minimize possible hazards, but will not bear responsibility for damage or injury
under any circumstances. Such testing is done entirely at the risk of the owner.
