Trelleborg Sealing Solutions has unveiled its extrusion-resistant seals intended to help oil and gas companies working in increasingly deeper waters. The XploR S-Seal and XploR FS-Seal are designed to withstand pressures of up to 15,000 psi at temperatures of 200C. Trelleborg aimed to unite the flexibility of an elastomer seal with the advantages of integral support components, stating it also used its range of rapid gas decompression resistant materials. “The new sealant is a significant step forward for our company as we continue to develop innovative solutions that can be applied across all sectors including offshore drilling, drilling platforms and pipelines,” said Lars Lund@@
