Abstract: The present invention relates to an assembly including an end-fitting for terminating an unbonded flexible pipe and an unbonded flexible pipe. The unbonded flexible pipe includes a first and a second armour layer co-axially arranged, and an electric heating system. The end-fitting includes means for mechanically anchoring the first armour layer to the end-fitting and includes electrical connections for connecting the first armour layer to a power-source. The end-fitting also includes means for mechanically anchoring the second armour layer to the end-fitting. The first and the second armour layers are electrically insulated from each other by at least one electrically insulating layer in the end-fitting and the end-fitting includes a local volume in the end-fitting adjacent to the electrically insulating layer adapted for injection of a functional fluid.

Abstract: Disclosed is an unbonded flexible pipe for subsea transportation of fluids. The pipe has a length and a centre axis and includes a plurality of layers including at least one polypropylene based layer including a modified polypropylene compound including: at least about 50% by weight of a base polypropylene (base PP) which consists of polypropylene including up to about 10% by weight of one or more co-monomers other than propylene, and at least about 1% by weight of a plastomer including a propylene and at least one co-monomer other than propylene.
