Abstract
The research aims to define composite materials and the development of their use in various industrial fields, and to refer to the most important types used in the field of oil industries and their classification. During this research, the advantages and properties of composite materials will be reviewed, which led to their superiority over other engineering materials in some aspects, which can be invested in the oil industries.
In addition, some methods of manufacturing composite materials for the manufacture of parts and sections in the oil industries such as vessels and pipes or in the treatment of exudates will be clarified with examples of their uses and the benefits arising from this use, which illustrate the economic feasibility of using composite materials in the field of oil industries, especially the manufacture of pipes and vessels as well It is used in the treatment of metal pipes that are difficult to repair by traditional methods. The development of the use of composite materials in the pipe industry will also be reviewed, where plastic pipes reinforced with composite materials have been manufactured, called Reinforced Thermoplastic Pipe (RTP), which are used for the rapid construction of oil and gas pipelines, which are characterized by corrosion resistance and light weight.
