01 / HYDROGEN
Hydrogen RTP
Pipeline concepts for hydrogen service, with liner, barrier, joints and permeation performance to be validated against the operating envelope.
Product development focusComposite pipeline engineering
RTP for the next demands of energy.
SWUtilities can deliver a full turnkey RTP scope, from pipe supply through installation and testing, for standard and specialist pipeline applications.
Since 2003Engineering experience
New RTP product focus
Hydrogen. Gas. Downhole. Smart RTP.
Four application areas shaping SWUtilities’ next phase of composite pipeline development. Final designs and ratings will depend on qualification for each service.
02 / GAS
Gas RTP
Spoolable composite systems for suitable gas transport applications, designed around pressure, temperature, gas containment and installation conditions.
Application specific qualification
03 / DOWNHOLE
Downhole RTP
Specialist pipe development for well environments where mechanical loads, fluids and temperature call for a dedicated qualified design.
Specialist development focus
04 / SMART RTP
Smart RTP
Integrated pathways can deploy electrical power and communications alongside the pipe. Where required, a qualified temperature-control system can be designed into the installation.

Product design envelope
One portfolio. Qualified for each duty.
The proposed programme spans standard service, hydrocarbons, produced water, gas, hydrogen, downhole and Smart RTP applications. Ratings depend on diameter, materials, fluid and temperature.

03Testing and commissioning
What we do
One team for supply, installation and testing.
A full turnkey RTP scope can bring product selection, field delivery and verification together under one project plan.
RTP system supply
Pipe, fittings and connection systems selected for the fluid, pressure, temperature and installation conditions of each project.
Pipeline installation
Reel deployment, jointing and route installation, including aboveground, buried and horizontal directional drilling works where suitable.
Testing and handover
Installation checks, pressure testing and documented handover against the approved project procedures and product requirements.
Why RTP
Practical benefits for the right application.
RTP combines a thermoplastic liner and outer jacket with a reinforcement layer. Its performance depends on the complete, qualified pipe and fitting system.
Pressure, temperature, chemical compatibility, permeation and joining requirements must be verified for each service.
Corrosion resistance
Thermoplastic materials can reduce exposure to corrosion mechanisms associated with steel pipe.
Spoolable lengths
Reel based delivery can reduce field joints on suitable routes.
Lower handling weight
Lighter pipe can simplify transport, lifting and site logistics.
Installation flexibility
Pipe systems can be designed for buried or aboveground routes, subject to support and environmental requirements.
Looking ahead
Building regional RTP capability.
SWUtilities is developing plans for an advanced RTP production facility in the GCC. Hydrogen, gas, downhole and Smart RTP are priorities for the proposed product portfolio.
