Abstract
Polymeric composites have been used to replace metals in many onshore and offshore applications due to their corrosion resistance. Transporting petrochemical gases and acids via composite materials at high pressure and temperature represents a challenge because the lack of confidence in such aggressive environments. Therefore, understanding the change in the physical and mechanical properties in polymeric composites under aggressive oil conditions is essential for providing novel designs and materials for these applications. This work presents a short literature review on the challenges facing application of polymeric composites in the oil and gas downhole aggressive corrosion environment. Moreover, it presents preliminary inspection on the integrity of a thermoplastic polymer (PEEK) subjected to HCl (0.8 Ph) at high temperatures (50 and 100 °C) for 14 days. The preliminary results demonstrated the good chemical resistance of PEEK at high temperature. Moreover, there was no effect on the mechanical properties of the PEEK at these conditions.
