MaxDR fusible, composite HDPE pipe performs at a higher-pressure (350 – 750 psi) than conventional HDPE pipe while offering the corrosion resistance and other benefits of HDPE. It delivers all the strength, durability, flexibility, and reliability required for use in oil and gas including produced water, crude oil, natural gas, and CO2 for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR).
MaxDR takes HDPE to where only fiberglass and steel have gone before, due to its larger diameters and higher working pressures.
Why MaxDR Pipe for Oil & Gas
On the low-end, a joint of MaxDR 350 uses far less material than the equivalent ID DR7 poly pipe due to a thinner HDPE wall strengthened by composite material, which means it achieves higher operating pressures at approximately half the weight. This makes MaxDR lighter and easier to handle, less expensive to transport, and faster to fuse – all while delivering a lower total cost of ownership. On the high-end, MaxDR provides working pressures that are only offered by fiberglass and steel.
