| Description |
This is a Joint
Industry Project (JIP) to support the creation and maintenance of the CEAC at the
University of Houston. The specific goals proposed for the center were to:
(1)identify and quantify the opportunities for utilizing
composite materials in the petroleum industry;
(2) develop composites applications that will reduce the
cost of petroleum operations;
(3) establish the technical infrastructure needed by the
petroleum industry to use composite products;
(4) develop enabling composites applications that extend
exploration and production capabilities beyond current limits;
(5) facilitate Joint Industry Projects that will develop
experience and the database needed to demonstrate the performance and reliability of
composite products in critical operations;
(6) bridge technology gaps with R&D and technology
transfer programs;
(7) serve as a liaison between the U.S. petroleum industry
and the certification/regulatory agencies on issues concerning the use of composite
products.
