As one of the largest global industries, the oil and gas industry generated around $5 trillion in revenue in 2022. Multiple sectors and industries rely on oil and gas for energy production, including transportation, manufacturing, and electrical power generation.
Corrosion-resistant composite materials have multiple applications and benefits for the oil and gas industry. Altas Fibre provides companies with custom-made thermoset composite shapes and parts to be used for composite frac plugs, composite gaskets, and other components. We understand the importance of keeping costs down, so we work with each of our oil and gas customers to reduce project costs and complexity.
The oil and gas industry needs materials that perform well under demanding conditions. Thermoset composites can rise to the challenge due to their versatility and durability.
A few benefits of using glass fiber-based composites in the oil and gas industry are:
Thermoset composites form many of the parts used by aerospace companies, including:
