Abstract: A transportable system and method for the in situ eccentric manufacturing of reinforced thermoplastic pipelines in continuous lengths up to 10 miles and from 8 to 60 inches in diameter having a rotating frame assembly with a eccentric spools for application of reinforcing tapes and other components to a polyolefin core pipe, and further having a forming machine for cross sectional shape reduction of the reinforced thermoplastic pipelines to facilitate pulling the reinforced thermoplastic pipelines inside a host pipeline. Also provided are continuous monitoring and marking with application of tape in the hoop stress direction and the axial stress direction as well as saturated tape feeding stations for impregnation of the reinforcing tape for in situ curing.

Abstract: A method and structural inventive system-construction or mechanism for the figure eight coiling for non-metallic pipelines and conduits, preferred to be of the composite structure and instrumented with detection inventive systems, the coiling which was not previously available and specifically indicated for the means of the long lengths, up to 10 miles, continuous pipelines coiling, transportation and installation at the site. The figure eight inventive system provides for a natural assumption of the bending repose for the pipeline and relaxation of the stresses and preservation of the pipeline's properties from the manufacturing, through the transportation and installation all the way to the site.

Abstract: A liner or core pipe which is suitable for insertion into a host pipe, the core pipe including, in certain aspects, a pipe made of temperature-resistant corrosion-resistant material and having an outer surface, an inner surface, a first end and a second end and a flow channel therethrough from the first end to the second end; first and second strengthening wraps around the pipe; a plurality of spaced-apart pulling tapes on the pipe; the pipe deformable to facilitate insertion into a host pipe, and a protective outer wrap on the pipe.

Abstract: An apparatus for wrapping material onto and around a pipe, the apparatus including a shaft, the shaft rotatable by a driving apparatus, a payout core containing material to be wrapped onto a pipe, the payout core releasably mounted on the shaft, a deflection arm assembly secured to the shaft for rotation by the shaft, rotation of the shaft rotating the deflection arm assembly with respect to the payout core so that the deflection arm assembly takes material from the payout core and wraps the material onto a pipe adjacent the deflection arm assembly, each of the shaft and deflection arm assembly having a central opening through which is movable the pipe as the pipe is being wrapped.

Abstract: A thermoplastic pipe liner assembly and method for installation in a pipeline by pulling the pipe liner assembly through the pipeline in a temporarily folded condition wherein the thermoplastic pipe liner assembly has a core inner liner, an outer liner with optional grooving for annular communication, orbitally wound strength and intermediate layers, two or more tension deformation members to sustain the tension needed to pull the pipe liner assembly through the pipeline for several miles and to assist in maintaining the temporarily folded condition. Also included are optional instrumentation circuits. Also disclosed is a method for the manufacture of the pipe liner assembly and concurrent installation in a pipeline.

Abstract: A multi-layered liner for lining a pipeline which has an external jacket, an interior liner, a woven intermediate layer between the external jacket and the interior liner. At least one optical fiber is in the woven intermediate liner for purposes of monitoring stress or for communication, and a capacitance leak detection circuit is also in the multi-layered liner for the purpose of detecting leaks in the multi-layered liner. Also included is the method of monitoring a pipeline for stress or leakage by use of a stress detector connected to an optic fiber in a multi-layered liner installed in the pipeline and a leak detector connected to a capacitance circuit in a multi-layered liner installed in a pipeline.
