Development of Hydrocarbon Fire Testing for Offshore Application

The use of glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) in offshore oil and gas platforms has been on a rise in the recent decades mainly due to its advantages such as good strength to weight ratio, corrosive resistance and etc. Issues such as strength, durability as well as serviceability are the main iss...
