Abstract: A flexible armoured pipe is built up of three layers, i.e. an impermeable liner (2a), an inner armouring layer (1a) and an outer armouring layer (3a). A flexible pipe, especially for offshore applications, is hereby provided, where the inner armouring layer is in contact with the fluid, which shall be transported in the pipe, while the outer armouring layer and the impermeable liner are in contact with the surroundings. This means that the inner armouring layer absorbs the hydrostatic pressure acting on the impermeable liner. Moreover, since no substantial restrictions to mass transport exist outside the impermeable liner, gases, which diffuse through the impermeable liner, will now be able to escape to the surroundings.
