puncture occurs frequently in the gathering and transportation pipeline network composed of carbon steel pipelines. So it is of great significance to reduce corrosion and maintenance costs by using reinforced plastic non-metallic pipes instead of some metal pipes. Corrosion immersion experiments are conducted to study the changes of permeability
expansion and mechanical properties of swelling and mechanical properties of flexible composite pipes and aramid glass steel pipes under high salinity and CO

content with immersion periods. The results show that as the immersion periods increases
the permeability and expansion rate of the two non-metallic materials increase
but the tensile strength d
ecreases. Among them
aramid glass steel pipe has higher permeability
relatively smaller expansion rate
and higher tensile strength. The flexible composite pipe has the smaller permeability
a relatively larger expansion rate
and the smaller tensile strength. After the strength check relay on the changed mechanical properties
both materials can meet the gathering and transportation pressure requirements of 3 MPa. Based on the experimental results
the maximum allowable pressure for different pipeline specifications is calculated.
