Hoses for Dredging and Oil Production

Industrial hoses are important components in commercial and industrial usage. They facilitate the safe transport of substances in a variety of aggregation states from one location to another. Contrary to pipes, industrial hoses are principally rather used for shorter distances, mobile pumping and destination sites and at locations that are geographically difficult to access. When utilized, industrial hoses must withstand many types of stresses of a mechanical, thermal and chemical nature. A high-quality construction of industrial hoses is therefore absolutely essential for them to retain their functional capability for as long as possible.

Consequently, special industrial hoses are available for the different areas of application: an industrial hose for the transport of oil exhibits other construction features than an industrial hose for the transport of bulk material. For practical purposes, special industrial hoses are available for each product to be transported, each of them custom-engineered in regard to the properties of the respective material to be transported.

The service life of an industrial hose largely depends on the chemical properties and the temperature of the medium flowing through it. Furthermore, the flow rate and duration of exposure play an important role for the service life. For special applications or extreme cleaning methods, the specific construction features of the industrial hoses must be known to be able to select the suitable hose in each case. In addition, the connecting options of the individual hoses are important and also the effect of existing gate valves and hose connections on the possible choices.
