Features & Benefits

Product Benefits

VESTAKEEP® 5000 G can be used as liners for down- hole tubing in injection and production wells under demanding conditions that include High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) and chemical resistance. Injection wells can include Water Alternating Gas (WAG) as an Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) method, where the gas phase has a very high CO2 content and high pressure. Thermoplastic lined pipes are excellent for replacing expen- sive metallic corrosion resistant alloys (CRA) and clad pipes. Overall, thermoplastic liners reduce well maintenance frequency and operating costs, thereby increasing the economics of oil wells.
